TS Freedom Star FY 20 Dry Docking

The U.S. Maritime Administration intends to solicit proposals to provide industrial support services for the fiscal year 2020 dry docking of the training ship TS Freedom Star. Services will include dry docking the vessel and performing necessary repairs, maintenance, inspections, and certifications from May 5 through June 18, 2020. Proposals are due by March 5, 2020, and the agency will evaluate pricing and technical approaches.

This requirement has been set aside for total small business concerns. The predominate NAICS code is 336611 and PSC code is J019. The incumbent contractor is International Ship Repair & Marine Services, Inc., whose base price quote was $80,000. Additional costs may be incurred for optional work. All work must be performed at the contractor's shipyard facility located between Philadelphia, PA and Savannah, GA. The government has provided numerous vessel drawings and technical specifications to assist offerors.
