J--ENGINEERING CHANGE KITS, ENGINEERING SERVICES AND SUPPORT FOR THE VERSATILE EXERCISE MINE SYSTEMS (VEMS)

The contract involves a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) between the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) and BAeSEMA Land & Sea Systems for the provision of various services and materials related to the Versatile Exercise Mine Systems (VEMS). Under this agreement, NAVSEA plans to issue multiple orders over the contract period for Engineering Change Kits, refurbishment, installation and checkout materials, maintenance support materials, repair parts, engineering services, and related support and data. BAeSEMA is uniquely qualified to fulfill these requirements due to its specialized technical expertise and exclusive familiarity with the equipment, making it the sole capable supplier for this work. The contract is issued pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304 and highlights that no other company has the necessary technical qualifications or resources to meet the Navy’s needs for this scope of work. While the agreement itself does not specify set-asides or subcontracting plans, interested companies seeking subcontract opportunities are advised to contact BAeSEMA directly. This arrangement emphasizes the critical nature of BAeSEMA’s role in sustaining the VEMS, reinforcing the exclusivity of the source due to the proprietary and technical nature of the equipment involved.
