Essayons Overhaul FY27The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District, is soliciting bids for a firm fixed price job order under the Master Ship and Repair Agreement to perform comprehensive overhaul, maintenance, and repair work on the dredge ESSAYONS, a 350-foot trailing arm suction hopper dredge built in 1984. All work must be completed at the contractor’s facility after the government delivers the vessel, and successful completion requires passing dock and sea trials conducted by USACE personnel prior to acceptance. The contractor must hold an active MSRA with the Portland District, and those without one must establish it before award eligibility. Site visits are mandatory for responsibility determination and are scheduled for July 26 and August 4 in Astoria and Westport, Oregon, with start times at 9:00 AM Pacific Time. Bidders must provide their own PPE compliant with EM 385-1 standards and disclose whether they possess a TWIC card, as some locations require it. The solicitation is open only through electronic submission via email to Ian Lutjens and Brandon Lasich by August 17, 2026, at 2:00 PM Pacific Time, with bids valid for 90 days. The solicitation number is W9127N26BA029, and the NAICS code is 336611. The dredge’s current status during the operational dredging season means visit locations may change with minimal notice, and exact pickup points will be confirmed within three days of each scheduled visit. The overhaul will include the renewal of the U.S. Coast Guard Certificate of Inspection, drydock examination, internal structural review, and endorsement of the American Bureau of Shipping International Load Line Certificate.

Notice of Intent to Sole Source for MMD 42' Barge Rotating Group RepairThe U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle District, is seeking sole-source approval to procure specialized services from Thrust Masters of Texas (TMOT) to address critical propulsion failures on the 42-foot self-propelled barge Jackson. The barge’s 25-year-old rotating group has suffered repeated seal failures, rendering it inoperable, and only TMOT, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer, possesses the proprietary drawings, tooling, and technical expertise required to overhaul the legacy rotating group (Model C104916) to factory specifications. The action includes procuring a new TMOT rotating group (Model B121287), a complete factory rebuild of the existing unit with round-trip shipping, and three days of on-site supervision by a TMOT-certified technician to ensure compliance with warranty requirements and proper installation. The estimated total cost is $65,000, which is within the simplified acquisition threshold, justifying a single-source acquisition under FAR 13.102(a) and 10 USC 2304(c)(1). The need for exclusivity is grounded in TMOT’s prohibition of third-party involvement and its stipulation that warranties are void without OEM-certified work. The procurement is being conducted under solicitation W912DW26Z1C7J, with a response deadline of August 4, 2026, and the work will be performed at Mud Mountain Dam in Auburn, Washington.

The contractor will receive an initial Technical Data Package as Government Furnished Information and be responsible for maintaining and updating it to reflect approved design changes. Responses must demonstrate proven experience in producing and repairing complex RF and data processing systems in secure naval environments, including specific expertise in Data Distribution Systems, high-power RF equipment, TDP updates, and acceptance testing of government-furnished designs. Bidders are required to exhibit robust program management capabilities covering configuration management, obsolescence mitigation through DMSMS plans, reliability and quality assurance, risk management, and formal technical reviews aligned with NAVSEA standards. A minimum SECRET facility clearance is mandatory, and potential contractors must be prepared to meet aggressive delivery schedules including two antennas per month, twenty signal data processors monthly, and four AN/USG XB systems annually, with a Production Readiness Review due within six months of award. All submissions must be received by August 17, 2026, be no more than ten pages excluding the cover page, and include detailed company information, relevant contract history, and identification of any barriers to competition with recommended mitigations.

USS JOHN P MURTHA (LPD 26) FY27 Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) Request for ProposalsThe Naval Sea Systems Command is soliciting proposals for the Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) of the USS JOHN P MURTHA (LPD 26), a complex maintenance and modernization effort requiring a highly capable contractor with substantial facilities and technical expertise. The work encompasses approximately 158,000 man-days of maintenance and 26,000 man-days of modernization, covering critical ship systems including hull structure, propulsion plant, electric plant, command and surveillance systems, auxiliary systems, outfit and furnishings, and armament. Key modernization projects include the SSDG seawater piping upgrade and the Central Fresh Water System REA, with major tasks involving structural welding, piping, electrical, and ventilation work. The contract is expected to be awarded as a Firm-Fixed-Price arrangement, and due to the scale and specialized nature of the requirement, market research has determined that there are not two or more small business concerns capable of competing, so the procurement is not set aside for small businesses. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management with a valid Unique Entity Identifier and must comply with electronic submission through PIEE. The proposal deadline has been extended to August 4, 2026, and all applicable attachments, including CDRLs, J-attachments, and S-attachments, are not publicly available and must be requested in writing from the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer, with access granted via DoD SAFE.

AN/BLQ-10 Electronic Warfare System Market ResearchThe U.S. Navy, through Team Submarine Contracts, is conducting market research to gather input on the procurement of the AN/BLQ-10 Electronic Warfare System for Virginia, Los Angeles, Seawolf, and Columbia-class submarines, including potential in-service upgrades to SSBN and SSGN platforms. This effort targets technology insertion baselines TI-26, TI-28, and TI-30, covering design, engineering development, logistics integration, testing, evaluation, and installation. The notice explicitly states that this is not a solicitation, does not obligate the government to award a contract, and will not result in the acceptance of proposals. Instead, it seeks feedback from industry on the barriers that prevented participation in the previously issued solicitation N0002423R6211, including technical, scheduling, resource, or risk-related constraints, as well as suggestions for alternative acquisition approaches such as separating hardware from system integration. Responses must address these questions and include company identification details, business size status, and contact information, with submissions limited to five pages. All responses must be submitted electronically by 1600 Eastern Time on July 31, 2026, to the designated points of contact, with a required subject line format. Responses will become the property of the U.S. Government and may be used to shape future acquisition strategies and solicitations, though no guarantee of feedback or acknowledgment is provided. Vendors are responsible for all costs associated with preparing and submitting their responses, and proprietary or sensitive information must be clearly marked to qualify for protection under public records law. The government retains full discretion over the use of submitted data and will not add respondents to any bidder lists or notify them of outcomes. The NAICS code 334511 identifies this as related to navigational, measuring, electromedical, and control instruments manufacturing, and all submissions are final and non-returnable.
