About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command has awarded contract N3220526C1206 to Alabama Shipyard for maintenance and alteration work on USNS JOSHUA HUMPHREYS (TAO-188) on a sole-source basis, with modification work valued at $2.9 million.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) for unusual and compelling urgency. The vessel is currently in overhaul at Alabama Shipyard with eight critical work items required during the scheduled availability period to maintain regulatory compliance and ensure operational readiness. These items include joiner door repairs, American Bureau of Shipping deficiency corrections, replacement of failed ship's whistle and sea water spool pieces, and structural repairs to load-bearing stanchions. Deficiencies were identified during inspections conducted from March 26 through April 22, 2026. The competitive procurement is infeasible because competitive solicitation would require 381 days of procurement lead time plus repair duration, unacceptable given the vessel's daily per diem cost of $210,167. The current shipyard status—with interferences removed, staging installed, and equipment open for inspection—represents the most cost-effective opportunity. Awarding the work to another contractor would require duplicative mobilization and vessel access not feasible within the scheduled availability window. The original contract was competitively awarded on January 30, 2026, for $14,629,577, with performance through June 6, 2026. Work is funded through fiscal year 2026 Operations and Maintenance, Navy funds. Place of performance is Alabama Shipyard.
