About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command has awarded contract N3220526C0008 to Detyens Shipyard, Inc. for mid-term availability work on the USNS PATUXENT (T-AO 201) on a sole-source basis, with the original competitively awarded contract valued at $15,145,663.00 and modifications for additional work items (redacted value) issued on September 14, 2026.
The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) for unusual and compelling urgency. The contracting activity determined that full and open competition would introduce unacceptable delays in returning the vessel to mission-ready status; competitive procurement for this magnitude carries an estimated 501-day lead time. With the vessel's per diem rate at $112,976.00 per day, delays would result in substantial government losses. The original competitively awarded contract covered 103 work items with performance from July 20, 2026, through October 3, 2026. Modifications incorporate work items required to comply with regulatory requirements established by the U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and American Bureau of Shipping. The modifications are funded using fiscal year 2026 Operations and Maintenance, Navy funds. The Contracting Officer determined the anticipated cost to be fair and reasonable under FAR 15.404-1(b). The authority to act under this justification expires one year after Competition Advocate approval. Future acquisitions are expected to support competition through development of a technical data package or performance specification.
