About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command is seeking to procure two U.S. flagged, Jones Act compliant tractor-like tugs for operations in New London, Connecticut. The tugs must meet specific technical requirements, including a maximum length of 105 feet, minimum bollard pull of 65,000 lbs forward, 10-knot transit speed, maximum 15-foot draft, and capacity to accommodate 12 passengers plus crew. The procurement will be structured as a firm fixed-price contract with reimbursables, covering a base period from July 1, 2025, to May 31, 2028, with two additional option periods. Interested vendors are required to submit detailed information by May 9, 2025, at 2:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, including company details, vessel specifications, pricing, and business standing. Responses should be emailed directly to Yvonne Escoto and Reah D. Norris at their Navy email addresses.
The contract is not designated with any specific set-aside classification, indicating open competition for qualified vendors. The tugs are expected to operate in New London Harbor and surrounding navigable waters, extending to the continental shelf. While specific award values are not disclosed, the contract includes a base period and two option periods, suggesting potential long-term engagement. The government will use this market survey to determine whether to exercise an upcoming option under an existing contract. The procurement falls under the NAICS category 488330 for Navigational Services to Shipping and PSC category V124 for Marine Transportation Charter, which provides additional context for potential bidders about the scope and nature of the contract.
