About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC) is seeking a sole source bridge contract with PPG Architectural Finishes, Inc. for a worldwide paint program supporting its Engineering Division. The contract will provide paints, coatings, solvents, preservation products, and associated engineering/technical services for MSC ships and government-owned vessels globally. Key contract requirements include marine-specialized paint products meeting specific technical standards, conducting shipboard and shoreside training, performing service calls, and providing field technical representatives for ship availabilities. The contractor must have qualified personnel, including a Program Manager with an engineering background and technical managers with specific certifications. The solicitation is being issued under a sole source justification using 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which allows for award to the only responsible source that can satisfy agency requirements.
The solicitation is unrestricted but includes small business subcontracting plan requirements, with the primary NAICS code of 325510 (Paint and Coating Manufacturing). The contract has a minimum order value of $3,500 and a maximum ceiling of $16,525,604, covering a performance period from June 14, 2025, to June 13, 2026, with an option for an additional six-month period. Delivery orders can be placed for various ports worldwide, reflecting the global nature of the Military Sealift Command's operations. The contract aims to prevent mission-critical lapses and potential vessel damage by leveraging PPG's existing global infrastructure, strategic personnel placement, and current government security clearances. The sole source approach is justified by the need to maintain continuity of critical maritime painting and preservation services while the government completes a competitive procurement process.
