About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command published this Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for critical maintenance work on the USS STETHEM (DDG-63) involving the replacement of the Main Reduction Gear Lube Oil Cooler Tube Bundle. The justification was filed under FAR 16.505(b)(2) due to urgent operational needs, as a rupture in the MRG Lube Oil Cooler poses immediate risks of seawater contamination, potential mission failure, and operational dangers to the ship and crew. The work was awarded to Epsilon Systems Solutions, Inc. on July 9, 2025, under the existing MAC-IDIQ contract N00024-22-D-4442 using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis. The specific award amount was not disclosed in the notice, though it was described as being based on an Independent Government Estimate for Work Item 262-11-001 RCC 16N. The Navy determined that providing fair opportunity to other contractors would result in unacceptable delays, necessitating immediate commencement of the tube bundle replacement work to prevent further damage and maintain the vessel's operational readiness.
