Description

Military Sealift Command is conducting market research for one U.S.-flagged, self-sustaining combination container/breakbulk vessel capable of consolidated cargo operations at sea with Military Sealift Command combat logistics force vessels or directly with U.S. Navy surface combatants. The vessel must meet detailed requirements for speed, range, draft, cargo capacity and handling, including at-sea cargo transfer capability, cranes and cargo-handling equipment, at least 200 TEU capacity, 50 reefer outlets, and accommodation for at least 22 Navy personnel. It must also carry hazardous cargo with proper segregation and support operations worldwide in reasonable sea states and weather conditions. The contemplated charter is one 12-month period, with three one-year options and one 11-month option. Respondents are asked to provide vessel details and availability, daily charter rate, modification costs and timeline if needed, delivery or redelivery fees, fuel consumption, business size, and confirmation that the vessel meets the requirements. Respondents must also confirm that their company holds a current facility clearance at least at the Secret level. This is a sources-sought market research notice, not a request for offers.
