About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) intends to issue solicitation N00024-26-R-4441 for docking selected restricted availability (DSRA) services on two Navy vessels: USS CINCINNATI (LCS 20) and USS CANBERRA (LCS 30). The procurement involves repair and modernization services to restore both ships to mission-ready condition for fleet deployment, with the anticipated contracts classified as supply contracts for repaired, mission-ready ships. The scope encompasses all labor, supervision, production, testing, and quality assurance necessary to accomplish these Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) availabilities, requiring a highly capable contractor with substantial human resources capable of coordinating and integrating multiple areas of ship maintenance, repair, and modernization. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in this pre-solicitation notice, the work will be governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Navy Marine Corp Acquisition Regulation Supplement (NMCARS). The due date for responses to this pre-solicitation is April 30, 2026, allowing interested parties 15 days from the posting date of April 15, 2026 to submit their interest or questions.
This pre-solicitation notice indicates no set-aside designation will be used, meaning competition will be open to all eligible contractors. The USS CINCINNATI (LCS 20) FY27 DSRA is anticipated to require approximately 13 months of work, while the USS CANBERRA (LCS 30) FY27 DSRA is expected to take approximately 12 months, though both timelines are subject to change. No specific award values or budget ranges are disclosed in this pre-solicitation synopsis. The notice indicates that while the Navy could potentially limit competition to homeport contractors under 10 USC 8669a due to the availabilities being less than 18 months in duration, the Navy intends to compete the work more broadly. No incumbent contractors or potential competitors are identified in this pre-solicitation notice.
Notice text
USS CINCINNATI (LCS 20) FY27 Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) and USS CANBERRA
(LCS 30) FY27 Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA)
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) intends to issue solicitation N00024-26-R-4441 for the execution of the USS CINCINNATI (LCS 20) FY27 Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) and USS CANBERRA (LCS 30) FY27 Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA). Upon a contractor’s completion of these Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) availabilities, the ships shall be capable of carrying out their respective missions with a reasonable expectation of maintaining a satisfactory condition of readiness until the next CNO-scheduled depot Availability.
USS CINCINNATI (LCS 20) FY27 DSRA: 13 months (subject to change)
USS CANBERRA (LCS 30) FY27 DSRA: 12 months (subject to change)
If the Navy issues a solicitation for the CNO Availabilities, the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Navy Marine Corp Acquisition Regulation Supplement (NMCARS) will guide the acquisitions. The two (2) anticipated contracts, like all other CNO-scheduled depot Availabilities, would be supply contracts. The supply that would be procured is a repaired, mission-ready ship, which shall be returned to service with the fleet.
The anticipated scope of the procurement includes all labor supervisions, production, testing, and quality assurance necessary to prepare for and accomplish these CNO Availabilities. These CNO availabilities are expected to require a highly capable contractor with substantial human resources capable of completing, coordinating and integrating multiple areas of ship maintenance, repair and modernization.
10 USC 8669a allows for the limitation of competition for “short term” Availabilities (18 months or less) to the homeport, provided there is adequate competition. Despite these Availabilities being less than 18 months in duration, the Navy would compete the acquisition on a coast-wide basis (West), without limiting the place of performance to the ship’s homeport.
The Navy will issue the solicitation electronically via PIEE and interested parties must comply with that solicitation. Interested offerors are hereby encouraged to monitor PIEE and www.SAM.gov for the anticipated release of the solicitation, and any associated amendments. Offerors shall be registered in the Solicitation Module in System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for award.
This synopsis is issued in accordance with FAR 5.203(a) and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or award a contract. The Government will not accept proposals as a result of this synopsis. The Government will not reimburse respondents for any questions submitted or information provided in response to this notice.
The Government anticipates issuing two (2) Firm-Fixed Price awards on or around 9 November 2025.
