About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command has awarded delivery order N55236-26-F-8035 to Delphinus Engineering under multiple award contract N00024-25-D-4217 for emergent maintenance on USS MANCHESTER (LCS-14) on a sole-source basis, with award effective April 7, 2026.
The justification cites FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(C) as a logical follow-on to the incumbent contractor's existing Continuous Maintenance Availability order, which was awarded competitively on an lowest-price technically acceptable basis. Seven repair work items are included: Fuel Service Tank repair, Flight Deck Structural Repair, Azimuthing Thruster Hydraulic System Flush, Data Acquisition Unit Cable Replacement, Stern Door Repairs, Flight Deck Safety Net Frame Filler Bar repair, and Aircraft Securing Fitting Preservation. These repairs address operational readiness requirements, including safety hazards, fuel capacity limitations, navigation degradation, and mission capability restrictions.
The Government justified the sole-source exception on economy and efficiency grounds. Engaging a second contractor would duplicate mobilization and overhead costs (estimated over a specified amount for temporary services alone) and create safety coordination conflicts. Fair and reasonable pricing will be determined using parametric methods, rough yardsticks, historical pricing comparison, and comparison with the Independent Government Estimate. The Contracting Officer certified the justification on March 20, 2026. Place of performance involves the Southwest Regional Maintenance Center. Work falls under NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing) and PSC J999 (Non-Nuclear Ship Repair – West).
