About this opportunity

The U.S. Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center in Alameda, CA is conducting a Sources Sought Notice for drydock maintenance services for the USCGC CYPRESS (WLB-210), a 225-foot seagoing buoy tender homeported in Kodiak, Alaska. The requirement involves performing approximately 117 maintenance work items, including hull plating ultrasonic testing, underwater body preservation, propeller and propulsion shaft inspections, rudder maintenance, tank cleaning, and various system overhauls. Interested contractors must submit responses by 8:00 AM Pacific Time on April 4, 2025, to the designated Coast Guard points of contact. Respondents are required to provide comprehensive documentation including company information, business size/status verification, a statement of intent to submit a proposal, and relevant past performance details. The evaluation will focus on companies' capabilities to meet the technical requirements and their certification status under specific small business categories.

The procurement falls under NAICS Code 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing) with a size standard of 1,300 employees, and will leverage provisions from the NDAA FY 2021 Section 8820 to allow full and open competition if fewer than two qualified small businesses in Coast Guard District 17 can perform the work. The contract's performance period is 99 days, specifically from September 8 through December 16, 2025, with all work to be completed at the contractor's facility in Alaska. While no specific award value is mentioned, the extensive list of 117 maintenance items suggests a significant scope of work. The solicitation is not set aside for any specific small business category, but encourages participation from 8(a), HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran Owned, Veteran Owned, Women Owned, and other small business concerns. Contractors must be prepared to provide detailed documentation proving their business size and ownership status under the specified NAICS code.
