Quick Summary

The Department of the Navy (DEPT OF THE NAVY), specifically MSCHQ NORFOLK, has issued a Justification and Approval (J&A) for Other Than Full and Open Competition regarding modifications to an existing contract (N3220526C1231) with Detyens Shipyards LLC. This J&A concerns the Regular Overhaul and Dry Docking (ROH/DD) of the USNS SUPPLY (T-AOE 6), located in North Charleston, SC. The modifications are necessary to incorporate regulatory requirements and extend the period of performance.

Scope of Work

The J&A details modifications to the existing contract for the Regular Overhaul and Dry Docking of the USNS SUPPLY. This includes work items required to comply with regulatory requirements and an extension of the performance period.

Contract & Timeline

  • Type: Justification for modification to an existing contract (N3220526C1231)
  • Contractor: Detyens Shipyards LLC
  • Product/Service Code: J998 (Non Nuclear Ship Repair)
  • Published: June 16, 2026
  • Place of Performance: North Charleston, SC

Evaluation & Rationale

The J&A explains the rationale for awarding modifications without full and open competition, citing an "unusual and compelling urgency." It states that a new competitive solicitation is infeasible due to the significant lead time required (381 days), which would result in substantial daily losses for the government (estimated at $274,000.00 per day). A presolicitation notice was posted on SAM.gov on July 17, 2025, and an award notice on March 13, 2026.

Additional Notes

The government intends to develop a technical data package or performance specification to support future competition for similar services. This J&A is for an existing contract modification and does not represent a new competitive opportunity.
