USS JOHN P MURTHA (LPD 26) FY27 Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) Request for Proposals
Solicitation # N0002426R4412
The Naval Sea Systems Command is soliciting proposals for the Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) of the USS JOHN P MURTHA (LPD 26), a complex shipyard availability requiring comprehensive maintenance, modernization, and repair work across multiple ship systems. This procurement is planned as a Firm-Fixed-Price contract and is being conducted on a coast-wide basis along the West Coast, with no set-aside for small businesses due to market research indicating insufficient qualified small business capacity under FAR 19.502-2(b). The scope encompasses approximately 158,000 man-days of maintenance and 26,000 man-days of modernization, including critical work on the hull structure, propulsion plant, electric plant, command and surveillance systems, auxiliary systems, outfitting, and armament. Major modernization projects involve upgrades to the SSDG seawater piping system and the central fresh water system, while maintenance tasks include ballast tank preservation, structural repairs to decks and bulkheads, overhaul of ship’s service diesel generators, radar and mast replacements, non-skid surface restoration, and cargo/elevator repairs. The contractor must have substantial facilities capable of accommodating a San Antonio-class LPD, with minimum pier requirements of 684 feet in length, 33 feet of water draft, 8000 amps of 450-volt three-phase electrical capacity, 9500 gallons per day of potable water, 1250 gallons per minute of sea water at 150 PSI, and capacity to handle 10,000 gallons per day each of sewage and wastewater. Technical capability must include seasoned personnel skilled in structural welding, piping, electrical, and ventilation trades to coordinate and integrate overlapping work areas under a detailed integrated production schedule that accounts for Alteration Installation Teams, ship force work, and long lead time material procurement. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and provide their Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) to be eligible. All solicitation documents are issued electronically through PIEE, and prospective bidders are required to monitor both PIEE.gov and SAM.gov for updates and amendments. The proposal submission deadline has been extended to August 4, 2026, at 7:00 PM ET. Critical technical attachments including CDRLs and J- and S-series documents are not publicly available and must be requested in writing from the Contract Specialist Kate Workosky and Contracting

Cable Repair Ship (T-ARC(X)) Sole Source Synopsis
Solicitation # N0002426R2229
The U.S. Navy, through NAVSEA, intends to award a sole-source Firm Fixed Price contract to VARD Marine Inc. in Houston, Texas, for Requirements Feasibility Studies supporting the Cable Repair Ship (T-ARC(X)) program. This effort will assess the commercial VARD 9 01 ship design’s ability to meet the Navy’s Top Level Requirements with minimal modification, focusing on its capacity to support current and legacy cable systems while accommodating government-furnished C4I equipment. The contract will require VARD to deliver concept-level design products including General Arrangement, Critical Equipment List, and Weight Report, along with an analysis of impacts on ship characteristics, cost, producibility, and identification of non-compliant equipment sources. Market research and prior industry engagement confirmed that the proprietary VARD 9 01 design is the only configuration capable of fulfilling all Tier 1 requirements, making VARD the sole viable source to perform this study without introducing significant risk or schedule delays. This announcement is a Sole Source Synopsis and not a solicitation; no formal contract or commitment is implied, and no competitive bidding process will be initiated. The North American Industrial Classification System code is 336611, and the acquisition falls under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), which justifies sole-source selection due to the unique proprietary nature of the design. Interested parties may submit a three-page capability statement by August 18, 2026, via email to the designated points of contact, including company information, business size designation, and evidence of ability to perform a comparable feasibility study. Responses must properly mark any proprietary information, as the Government assumes no liability for unmarked submissions and will not reimburse costs. Responses are not offers, will not be considered contracts, and will not impact future participation in potential solicitations. No written solicitation will be issued, and the Government retains full discretion to proceed, modify, or cancel the action without obligation.

This Request for Information (RFI), identified by solicitation number N0002426ICGN9 and NAICS code 336611, is not a solicitation for proposals and does not obligate the Government to award a contract; respondents must bear all costs associated with their submissions, and no reimbursement will be provided.

Responses must be sent to designated Navy points of contact and will be treated as business sensitive, protected from external disclosure, and retained for planning purposes. Any future RFP will be advertised on SAM.gov, and failure to respond now does not preclude future participation. The scope of work requires the contractor to remove and package reactor components as low-level radioactive waste, manage the shipment of large components like reactor vessels, and restore the site to an unrestricted radiological condition per NUREG 1757, Vol I and NRC regulations. The facility must be located in the U.S. and the vessel must be acceptably transported from a mutually agreed location near Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. Strict security protocols are mandated, including physical security controls, access limited to U.S. citizens for propulsion plant areas, compliance with NN-801 for Unclassified Naval Nuclear Propulsion Information (U-NNPI), and adherence to CMMC Level TBD for Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification. Environmental, safety, and health requirements include implementing plans compliant with OSHA’s National Emphasis Program for shipbreaking and adhering to Federal, State, and local environmental laws.

Solicitation # N0002426R4114
The Naval Sea Systems Command is soliciting proposals under solicitation N0002426R4114 for the Surface/Carrier Engineering Maintenance Assist Team (S/CEMAT) contract, a five-year Cost Plus Fixed Fee, Level of Effort, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicle to provide global engineering and technical support for the maintenance, overhaul, and repair of HM&E, aviation, and C4I systems aboard U.S. Navy aircraft carriers and surface ships. Performance will occur at multiple domestic and international locations, including Norfolk, Newport News, San Diego, Bremerton, Pearl Harbor, Yokosuka, Sasebo, and Everett, with work conducted onboard vessels and at naval shipyards. Proposals must be submitted exclusively through the PIEE portal by the deadline of August 10, 2026, and must adhere to a strict four-volume format, with Volume II limited to 95 pages and resumés capped at two pages per individual. The evaluation process prioritizes Management Approach, Technical Approach, and Resource Capabilities as significantly more important than Past Performance and Cost, with no numerical weights assigned, and the Government will conduct a trade-off analysis to select the proposal offering the best value, not necessarily the lowest price. The contract imposes stringent requirements related to organizational conflict of interest, level of effort, security, and compliance. Offerors are prohibited from supplying systems or services developed under this contract to the government for three years after completion unless exempted, and must promptly disclose any actual or potential conflicts. Labor efforts are measured at 40 hours per week, with uncompensated hours exceeding that threshold excluded from fulfillment. All personnel must hold appropriate security clearances, with full personnel listings—including SSN, citizenship, and clearance status—due seven days prior to work commencement. Work must comply with NAVSHIPS 9890/5 and 9890/8, NACE, NBPI, and other technical standards, while packaging and marking follow MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-130 guidelines for unique item identification and barcoding using UID. Invoicing is mandatorily conducted via Wide Area WorkFlow, and all submissions must be electronic, in editable formats, virus-free, and self-contained. The contract also requires mandatory flow-down of OCI clauses to subcontractors and strict adherence to government security policies, environmental controls, and hazardous material handling procedures.
