DDG 51 Post Shakedown Availability Request for Information RFI # N00024-16-R-2330 NOTE: PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHMENT TO THIS NOTICE FOR EASE OF READABILITY. IT CONTAINS THE SAME INFORMATION. THIS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) SOURCES SOUGHT NOTIFICATION IS FOR INFORMATIONAL AND ACQUISITION PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL, REQUEST FOR QUOTE, OR AS AN OBLIGATION OR COMMITMENT TO ISSUE AN RFP, CONTRACT, OR ORDER ON THE PART OF THE GOVERNMENT. THE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT PAY FOR ANY EFFORT EXPENDED OR ANY MATERIAL PROVIDED IN RESPONSE TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. Purpose The Naval Sea System Command (NAVSEA) is issuing this RFI on behalf of the DDG 51 (Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer) Program (PMS400D) as a means of conducting market research to identify parties with the interest and capabilities to support accomplishment of Post Shakedown Availabilities (PSAs) for ten (10) DDG 51 Class Ships in various homeports The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code assigned to this procurement is 336611, Ship Building and Repairing. Background PSAs are intended to accomplish correction of Government responsible trial card deficiencies; new work identified between ship custody transfer and the start of the PSA; and the incorporation of approved engineering changes which were not incorporated during the construction period and are not otherwise the shipbuilder's responsibility. Requirements and Anticipated Scope PSAs vary in scope and complexity, but a typical per-ship effort requires approximately 150,000 to 225,000 man-hours over a period of ten (10) to sixteen (16) weeks. PSAs often include additional work scope that is performed by Alteration Installation Teams (AITs) and other outside activities. Responsible parties ("Contractor(s)") are expected to provide the necessary program management and manpower in order to adequately manage, integrate, and support the entire PSA work scope. In support of this, a resource-loaded Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) that provides for accomplishment of the total availability work package, including AIT and other outside activity installation modifications, will be required. The contractor will be required to have: • Adequate facilities for the execution of the PSA; • A security clearance issued by the Defense Security Service at the SECRET level; and • The means to dry dock a DDG-51 Class ship (Length: 509.5 ft., Beam: 59 ft., Navigational Draft: 31 ft., Displacement: 9,486 L tons). Prior to and during the execution of each PSA, the contractor will be required to provide: • Anti-terror/force protection measures employed at the Contractor's facilities in accordance with NAVSEA Standard Item 009-72; • Sufficient ship pier/berthing facilities; • Warehouse/storage facilities to accommodate material; • Indoor and outdoor production facilities capable of performing marine pre-fabrication, repair, and machining onsite; • Available and operational power, compressed air, water, and sewage throughout the PSA industrial effort; • Secure and environmentally controlled facilities for combat systems and electronics equipment; and • Government office space and parking is to be provided for the PSA team working onsite. The Contractor shall complete work in a manner which affords for Naval Supervisory Authority certification of the PSA. Per OPNAVINST 4700.8K, conducting the PSA at or near the ship's homeport is desirable to minimize impact on crew training and quality of life. The currently anticipated PSA execution schedule (for planning purposes only, and subject to change) is as follows: Location Est'd Number of Ships Est'd Start Date Est'd End Date San Diego, CA 3 or 4 2017 2021 Everett, WA 1 2018 2018 Mayport, FL 1 or 2 2019 2019 Norfolk, VA 2 to 4 2019 2021 Pearl Harbor, HI 1 2020 2020 Instructions for Respondents Interested parties who consider themselves qualified to perform the efforts described herein are invited to submit a response to this RFI by 1500 EDT on 20 May 2016.
