Quick Summary
The Department of the Navy / MID ATLANTIC REG MAINT CTR has issued a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity for Hull Mechanical & Electrical (HM&E) sustainment of the YRBM(L)-27 in Norfolk, VA. This justification supports a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) delivery order to Bay Metals & Fabrication under existing contract N50054-25-D-0009 for critical Heating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) repairs.
Purpose & Justification
This document justifies limiting the source of procurement to Bay Metals & Fabrication due to urgency. The HVAC units on the YRBM(L)-27 require immediate inspection, recharge, and repair to ensure crew habitability. Essential services (AC, CHT, potable water, ventilation, berthing, and messing spaces) are currently unavailable, making these repairs critical for operational readiness until the vessel's next scheduled availability. Providing a fair opportunity period of 30 days is deemed unacceptable given the current operational status.
Scope of Work
The required work involves the inspection, recharge, and repair of Heating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) units for the YRBM(L)-27. This overhaul is necessary due to the continuous support provided by these units during CNO availabilities.
Contract Details
- Type: Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) Delivery Order

- Delivery Order Number: N50054-25-F-5315

Set-Aside / Eligibility
This action is based on an exception to fair opportunity due to urgency, not a set-aside designation. The government intends to compete all future delivery orders under the Barge MAC IDIQ to the maximum extent practicable.
