The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) intends to issue solicitation N00024-18-R-4404 for the execution of the USS BONHOMME RICHARD (LHD 6) Fiscal Year (FY) 18 Dry-Docking Phased Maintenance Availability (DPMA) on the West Coast. The availability will include a combination of maintenance, modernization, and repair, and is expected to require a highly capable contractor with substantial facilities, including a LHD 1 Wasp Class capable dry-dock, pier and human resources capable of completing, coordinating and integrating multiple areas of ship maintenance, repair and modernization.
In accordance with the CNO's Homeport Statute, 10 U.S. Code 7299a(c), CNO availabilities with production periods estimated to be greater than 180 calendar days are considered long-term and will be competed on a coast-wide basis, without limiting the place of performance to the vessel's homeport. As the production period for the FY18 DPMA is greater than 180 calendar days, the availability shall be competed on a West coast-wide basis. Based on the complexity, magnitude, and duration of the requirement, the Government's market research indicates there are not two or more small business concerns capable of competing for the requirement and therefore this procurement will not be set-aside for small business (FAR 19.502-2(b)).

The solicitation will be issued electronically via Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) at http://fbo.gov and interested parties must comply with that announcement. Interested offerors should monitor the FBO page for the release of the solicitation, and any applicable amendments. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) in order to participate in this procurement at https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/. FBO is the single point of entry for posting of the synopsis and solicitations to the internet. This pre-solicitation notice is for information only and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government to solicit contractual offers or award of contracts. The Government is not soliciting, nor will it accept proposals as a result of this synopsis. The Government will not reimburse respondents for any questions submitted or information provided as a result of this notice. All responsible sources may submit a proposal, which shall be considered by the agency.

The availability start date is anticipated to be July 2018. The delivery date of the vessel is expected to be no later than January 2020. The RFP will contain the specific dates.
Offerors, including significant subcontrators, may inspect the USS BONHOMME RICHARD (LHD 6) between 8 December and 22 December 2017 at Commander, Fleet Activities, Sasebo, Japan. (Please note: These dates are subject to last minute change). To schedule a ship check, offerors shall email a "Request for Ship Check" to Steve Galer and Ivy Hosokawa at steven.galer@navy.mil and ivy.e.hosokawa@navy.mil respectively.
The Government anticipates release of a Request for Proposal (RFP) the week of 27 November 2017.

The Government anticipates making a single award on or around 25 April 2018.

Offerors and subcontractors may request draft J-1, Specification Package, draft J-2, Work Item Plans, Drawings, and Other References and draft J-3, Execution Milestones and Key Event Dates by written request to ivy.e.hosokawa@navy.mil. These drafts are not expected to change before RFP release.

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) intends to issue solicitation N00024-18-R-4404 for the execution of the USS BONHOMME RICHARD (LHD 6) Fiscal Year (FY) 18 Dry-Docking Phased Maintenance Availability (DPMA) on the West Coast.  The availability will include a combination of maintenance, modernization, and repair, and is expected to require a highly capable contractor with substantial facilities, including a LHD 1 Wasp Class capable dry-dock, pier and human resources capable of completing, coordinating and integrating multiple areas of ship maintenance, repair and modernization.

In accordance with the CNO's Homeport Statute, 10 U.S. Code 7299a(c), CNO availabilities with production periods estimated to be greater than 180 calendar days are considered long-term and will be competed on a coast-wide basis, without limiting the place of performance to the vessel's homeport.  As the production period for the FY18 DPMA is greater than 180 calendar days, the availability shall be competed on a West coast-wide basis.  Based on the complexity, magnitude, and duration of the requirement, the Government's market research indicates there are not two or more small business concerns capable of competing for the requirement and therefore this procurement will not be set-aside for small business (FAR 19.502-2(b)).   

The solicitation will be issued electronically via Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) at http://fbo.gov and interested parties must comply with that announcement.  Interested offerors should monitor the FBO page for the release of the solicitation, and any applicable amendments.  Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) in order to participate in this procurement at https://www.sam.gov/portal/public/SAM/.  FBO is the single point of entry for posting of the synopsis and solicitations to the internet.  This pre-solicitation notice is for information only and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government to solicit contractual offers or award of contracts.  The Government is not soliciting, nor will it accept proposals as a result of this synopsis.  The Government will not reimburse respondents for any questions submitted or information provided as a result of this notice.  All responsible sources may submit a proposal, which shall be considered by the agency. 

The availability start date is anticipated to be July 2018. The delivery date of the vessel is expected to be no later than October 2019. The RFP will contain the specific dates.

The ship check dates are anticipated to be 8 December - 22 December 2017 at Naval Base San Diego. The RFP will contain the specific dates.
