Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center (SFLC), Small Boat Product Line, is seeking qualified sources to establish a Cutter Boat Pooling Program for the Over-The-Horizon Cutter Boats (CM-OTH) MKIII's and trailers, which will require transportation, storage, maintenance, repair, and technical support services for a rotatable pool of up to 50 boats and trailers deployed on cutters throughout the United States. It is anticipated that the first six months will be a pilot program covering 14 each CB-OTH MKIIIs located in Cape May, NJ (2 boats) and Portsmouth, Va (6 boats) and 6 spare boats in addition to 2 each CB-OTH MKII spares. Depending on the success of the pilot program, the number of boats is anticipated to increase incrementally. The pace at which the number of boats will be increased has yet to be determined and will be provided to the contractor when available. The contractor should expect an average of 7 boats in storage/maintenance at any time during the pilot period. If the pilot proves successful, the option years may be exercised and would likely expand the scope to include all East Coast CB-OTH MKIIIs (31) and spare CB-OTH MKIIs (2) and West Coast CBH-OTH MKIIIs (14) and spare CB-OTH MKIIs (3). The actual number of boats may vary slightly throughout the contract period.
