Non-Skid Deck Coating Removal and Surface Preparation

The contract involves the complete removal of existing non-skid coating from aluminum deck surfaces aboard the USS Rafael Peralta, requiring abrasive blasting, thorough cleaning, and precise surface profiling to comply with both NAVSEA standards and the coating manufacturer’s technical requirements. This work is critical to ensure proper adhesion and performance of future coatings and must be executed under strict environmental and safety protocols appropriate for naval vessel maintenance. The task is scoped as a subcontract under the NAICS code 238390 and is managed by Navsup Flt Logistics Ctr Yokosuka on behalf of the Department of Defense, with performance expected to occur in Yokosuka. All activities must meet rigorous quality control benchmarks to maintain the structural integrity and operational readiness of the vessel’s deck surfaces. The solicitation was posted on May 4, 2026, with a response deadline of May 12, 2026, at 1:00 AM, indicating a narrow window for qualified contractors to submit proposals. There is no set-aside designation specified, meaning the opportunity is open to all eligible subcontractors without restriction based on business size or status. The place of performance is firmly tied to Yokosuka, necessitating that proposers have the capability to mobilize personnel, equipment, and materials to that location on short notice. Compliance with all technical specifications, safety regulations, and federal contracting guidelines is mandatory, and failure to meet these standards could result in rejection of the bid or subsequent contract termination.
