About this opportunity

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a sole-source delivery order to BAE Systems, Inc. on April 10, 2026, for emergency repairs to USS IWO JIMA, on the basis of urgency and sole capability under FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(A).

The vessel experienced unforeseen casualties while underway requiring immediate, complex repairs within a constrained timeline to prevent delays to the ship's redeployment schedule. The Southeast Regional Maintenance Center's contracting officer determined that BAE Systems was the only contractor capable of successfully executing the work given the complexity of the rigging operation and tight timeframe. Providing fair opportunity to other eligible IDIQ Lot 1 contract holders and allowing mobilization time for alternate contractors would result in unacceptable delays. The contracting officer determined the price was fair and reasonable using an Independent Government Estimate, historical cost data, and negotiated rates from the competitively awarded base IDIQ contract (N00024-24-D-4229). The delivery order number is N40027-26-F-0115. Work is performed under SSP SERM-091-26. NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing); PSC J019 (Maint/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment – Ships, Small Craft, Pontoons, and Floating Docks).
