Temp weather CD-35 enclosure

The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard is seeking contractors to provide temporary weather enclosures for marine equipment maintenance and repair operations. The Naval Sea Systems Command requires specialized metal enclosures measuring 7' wide x 11' long x 7' high, constructed with 26-gauge exterior sheathing and featuring a personnel door with heavy-duty panic hardware, framed openings for sleeves, hatches, and HVAC systems, along with table assembly and cabinet base components. Contractors must demonstrate technical capabilities by submitting fabrication drawings and objective quality evidence showing three similar completed projects before fabrication begins. The solicitation will be evaluated using the lowest price technically acceptable method, considering technical acceptability, price, and past performance. Proposals are due by July 9, 2025, with written authorization from Code 2380.2 required before work can commence.

This opportunity is designated as a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 325212 (Synthetic Rubber Manufacturing) with a size standard of 1,000 employees, though the actual work involves marine equipment maintenance and repair. The contract requires a minimum of three weather enclosures to be delivered either fully assembled or in kit form for assembly using standard warehouse equipment and hand tools. Performance will occur at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, with a performance period from September 1, 2025, to August 31, 2026. The enclosures must be designed to withstand jacking forces when compressing gaskets against a 199" radius horizontal tank base, with specific requirements for all-metal construction and functional equivalence to provided sketches. No award values or budget ranges are specified in the solicitation documents.
