- Description
- The Military Sealift Command (MSC) will be holding a pre-market survey/pre-proposal meeting to discuss an upcoming requirement for a "warehouse" vessel/afloat distribution center in support of the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). The meeting will be held on 08 June 2005 from 0800-1200 hours at MSC headquarters in Washington D.C. and will be an open discussion between MSC, the requiring agency, and private industry. A formal market survey will be issued following the meeting. If you are interested in attending this meeting please contact Veronica Holzer by noon on 06 June 2005 at (202)685-5507 or by email at veronica.holzer@navy.mil. The following paragraph summarizes the intended mission for the vessel(s). MISSION: The "warehouse vessel" is envisioned as an afloat distribution center platform, capable of carrying containers, pallets and shelf stock items and distributing and regenerating items. The range of stock will be based on high demand items identified for use in early deployment of operating forces and for sustainment of forces in remote areas. The activities on the platform will be receipt, stowage and issuance of these items, similar to shore-based DLA distribution centers (warehouses), though alternate methods of carrying and distribution will be considered for this survey. In performing this mission the contractor would provide a time-chartered vessel, and the Government will provide managed government or contractor personnel to operate the warehouse distribution functions. The ship will be located in overseas areas, stocked with required items and ready to transit on immediate orders to an area to provide stock support to deployed troops. The ship may be berthed in an austere port or offshore. Transfer operations may be conducted by means of ramp to pier, Lo/Lo to pier or surface connectors and VERTREP.
