J--USS SAN FRANCISCO (SSN-711)upcoming Basic Ordering Agreement requirements

The Southwest Regional Maintenance Center plans to issue an order under one of two existing basic ordering agreements, N00024-10-G-4304 or N00024-10-G-4305, to secure Engineering, Material, and Technical Services in support of the USS SAN FRANCISCO (SSN-711). The anticipated period for this contract is from May 17, 2011, through December 17, 2011. The prospective prime contractors are Electric Boat Corporation, a General Dynamics Company based in Groton, Connecticut, and Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding located in Newport News, Virginia. The order will be awarded under the authority of 10 USC 2304(c)(1), which allows for certain procurements without competitive bidding, and will utilize existing Class Justification and Approval numbers for the solicitation process. This action is classified as a presolicitation notice and is not a direct request for proposals. The procurement focuses on supply and service requirements under the NAICS code 336611, which pertains to shipbuilding and repairing. Companies interested in subcontracting opportunities are advised to reach out directly to either Electric Boat or Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding. The Department of Defense's Supervisor of Shipbuilding Conversion office in San Diego, California, is overseeing this procurement, ensuring that the necessary engineering and technical support for the vessel is secured in a timely and efficient manner.
