The USCGC Joseph Tezanos FY27 Drydock Availability is a firm fixed price contract issued by the Department of Homeland Security, specifically the Coast Guard (CG-SEA-C21), for the maintenance and repair of the USCGC Joseph Tezanos (WPC 1118). This procurement is a total small business set-aside with a performance period scheduled from April 13, 2027, to August 10, 2027. The scope of work involves comprehensive drydock services, including tank and void maintenance, visual inspections, and the renewal of interior coating systems, all of which must adhere to Work Item Standard Specifications (WISS) and Coast Guard Vessel Coatings Specifications (VCS). Award selection is based on a best value tradeoff where technical capability and past performance are significantly more important than price. Technical evaluations focus on the contractor's experience with DoD and USCG surface vessels, workforce capacity, and the quality of their project planning and quality control. Proposals must include a detailed graphical planning document identifying critical paths and float calculations. The government maintains strict inspection rights, requiring certifications for completion (CFR) and specific technical standards for hydraulic cleanliness and shaft alignment, with final acceptance contingent upon successful dock and sea trials. Payment is managed electronically through the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP).
