About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command has awarded a sole-source delivery order to Epsilon Solutions Inc. under Multiple Award Contract N00024-25-D-4219 for urgent removal and preservation of an MT-30 Gas Turbine Engine from USS FORT WORTH (LCS-3), with justification approved on a sole-source basis under FAR 16.505(b)(2) for orders valued between $15,000 and $900,000.
The rationale centers on urgency and operational necessity. The newly installed, unused engine must be removed before the ship's deactivation transit during Fiscal Year 2026 Continuous Maintenance Availability; failure to remove it before transit will result in significant duplicative costs, schedule delays, mission failure, and operational vulnerability to the active Freedom-class LCS fleet. The incumbent contractor possesses necessary on-site access, specialized shipboard familiarity, and established temporary services that cannot be replicated by competing contractors within the compressed timeline. The work package (234-11-001, RCC 1N) is scheduled for execution between 11 May 2026 and 24 July 2026, with a critical, non-negotiable sail-away deadline. The original continuous maintenance availability was awarded competitively to Epsilon Solutions using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable criteria among three of six LOT 1 MAC-IDIQ contract holders. Fair and reasonable pricing will be determined through parametric analysis of labor hours, materials, and cost comparison against the Independent Government Estimate, historical pricing data, and Southwest Regional Maintenance Center rates. Place of performance is aboard USS FORT WORTH.
