Virginia Class Propulsor - Most Aggressive Feature (MAF) Follow-On

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) intends to award a sole-source, Cost-Plus Incentive-Fee (CPIF) contract to Collins Aerospace for the production of Virginia Class Propulsor Most Aggressive Features (MAF). This procurement follows the successful fielding of an Improved Advanced Hybrid (IAH) Propulsor on a Virginia Class Submarine (VCS), with the Navy now requiring additional IAH units for future new construction or backfit hulls. The scope of work includes material procurement, manufacturing, assembly, and delivery of the MAF components, along with shipping installation fixtures, installation support, and associated engineering services.

Identified under solicitation number N0016724R0023, the requirement involves Significant Long-Lead Time Material (LLTM) associated with MAF production. This action is classified under NAICS 336611 for Ship Building and Repairing and PSC 2010 for Ship and Boat Propulsion Components. Two attachments, a redacted Justification and Approval and a Statement of Work, were posted on March 8, 2024, to provide further details regarding this non-competitive acquisition.

Performance will take place in Jacksonville, Florida, with a response deadline of March 22, 2024. Jordan Good serves as the point of contact for this announcement, which is issued as a combined synopsis/solicitation to formally notice the intent to use other than full and open competition. This notice is an announcement of the synopsis rather than a request for proposals or quotations.
