USNS LARAMIE ROH/DD FY 26

The contract N3220526C1226, titled USNS LARAMIE ROH/DD FY 26, is a sole-source acquisition awarded under unusual and compelling urgency authority per 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) to perform a Regular Overhaul Drydocking Availability on the USNS LARAMIE (T-AO 203) at Alabama Shipyard. The work, necessary to maintain operational readiness and comply with U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and American Bureau of Shipping standards, includes critical repairs such as Bosun hatch restoration, replacement of stateroom deck coverings, and five-year lifeboat and davit servicing. The contract has a fixed value of $18,205,703 funded through Fiscal Year 2026 Operations and Maintenance, Navy, with a performance period from April 23, 2026, to August 1, 2026. The procurement was justified due to the prohibitive daily cost of vessel downtime—$210,167 per day—which made full and open competition impractical given a 381-day lead time. The contracting office is located in Norfolk, Virginia, under Military Sealift Command, with Teana Smith serving as the primary point of contact and contracting officer. The place of performance is Alabama Shipyard, and inspections occur on-site during the overhaul, with final acceptance by the Government. No formal contract type, line-item pricing structure, evaluation factors, or special requirements such as key personnel, security clearances, or options are detailed in the documentation. Packaging, marking, invoicing procedures, and specific technical specifications are also not defined, and no offeror representations or socioeconomic certifications were provided.
