About this opportunity
The United States Coast Guard (USCG) is seeking a contractor to perform dockside repairs on the USCGC KIMBALL (WMSL-756), a 418-foot National Security Cutter. The pre-solicitation notice outlines 11 specific work items, including fire prevention, tank cleaning and preservation, equipment inspections, and deck maintenance. Interested parties are invited to submit company information, business size classification, past performance details, and a statement confirming their ability to complete the work items. Contractors must respond via email to Richard Rawlings and William Zittle by March 5, 2025, with key documentation such as their Unique Entity Identification Number, business size, and relevant certifications. Evaluation criteria will focus on companies' capabilities, past performance in similar maritime repair projects, and ability to meet the technical specifications for the vessel's dockside maintenance.
The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside for small businesses, though it encourages submissions from various small business classifications including 8(a), HubZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, and Woman-Owned businesses. Potential contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and will need to complete a Non-Disclosure Agreement to access technical drawings and specifications. While no specific contract value is mentioned, the complexity of the 11 work items suggests a substantial maritime repair project. Contractors will need to demonstrate expertise in ship maintenance, particularly for a National Security Cutter, and be prepared to provide comprehensive labor, services, materials, and equipment for the dockside repairs. The project is scheduled for the third quarter of fiscal year 2025, with the potential solicitation to be published on SAM.gov following review of initial responses.
