The contract will cover specialized technical support essential for these complex systems, reflecting the unique capabilities held by Electric Boat Corp. due to their expertise and experience. While the Government intends to limit solicitation to this single source under FAR 6.302 authority, other responsible entities are invited to submit capability statements or proposals within 45 days of the notice’s publication, or 30 days if under an existing basic ordering agreement. The Government will consider all submissions to determine whether competitive procurement is necessary but reserves the discretion to proceed without competition. The contract falls under NAICS code 541330 and is associated with work performed primarily in Groton, Connecticut. The point of contact for the solicitation is Susan B. Scutt, who can be reached by phone or email for further inquiries.

The award supports critical maintenance and development of nuclear propulsion systems, ensuring continued operational readiness of the Navy’s submarine fleet.
