Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy (MSCHQ Norfolk) has issued a Justification and Approval (J&A) for the use of other than full and open competition to modify contract N322025C2148. This modification incorporates critical new work items into the Regular Overhaul and Dry Docking (ROH/DD) of the USNS GUADALUPE (T-AO 200) currently being performed in Portland, OR.
Scope of Work
The additional work items are required to maintain compliance with U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) regulatory requirements. Key tasks identified in the attached spreadsheets include:
- Structural Repairs: ABS steel items in low decks and port anchor washdown pipe repairs.
- Mechanical & Systems: Cargo pump room bilge repairs, RAM tensioner ring seals, and CT winch foundation work.
- Safety & Navigation: Lifeboat control panel servicing, onboard immersion suit maintenance, and barometer calibration.
- Control Systems: TANO control system grooming and SME mechanical overspeed tasks.
Contract & Timeline
- Type: Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (Contract Modification)
- Original Contract Period: August 26, 2025, through February 1, 2026
- Funding: Fiscal Year 2026 Operation and Maintenance, Navy (O&M, N)
- Set-Aside: Not Applicable
- Published: January 27, 2026
Rationale for Award
Competitive solicitation for these specific work items was determined to be unfeasible. A new procurement would require an estimated 381-day lead time, which would significantly delay the vessel's return to mission-ready status and result in substantial daily financial losses for the Government. The contracting officer has determined the anticipated costs to be fair and reasonable.
Additional Notes
This notice is for informational purposes and is not a solicitation for proposals. The Navy intends to develop technical data packages to support competition for future requirements.
