About this opportunity

The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has published a Special Notice regarding its intent to award a sole-source contract to Appleton Marine, Inc. for mission-critical spare crane parts for the National Security Cutter (NSC) program. The USCG has determined that Appleton Marine, Inc. is the only company capable of providing the required crane spares, which are necessary to minimize downtime for the NSCs during maintenance.

The purpose of this Special Notice is to provide notification of the USCG's intent to award a firm-fixed-price contract to Appleton Marine, Inc. for one shipset of the NSC aft folding boom cranes. The USCG has published a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) document, which outlines the agency's rationale for the sole-source procurement. The due date for any responses to this Special Notice is October 1, 2024, and the USCG is seeking evidence from other vendors that competition for this requirement would be advantageous to the government. This opportunity is set aside for small businesses, and the USCG will use FY 2022 Procurement, Construction, and Improvement funding to support the contract award.
