Proposals are due Dec. 1 for the Navy’s Multi-Mission Dry Dock multiple award construction contract at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility in Bremerton, and the Kitsap Economic Development Alliance is urging local firms that want a share of the work to start with its APEX Accelerator.
The solicitation, N44255-26-R-0005, is part of the Navy’s Shipyard Infrastructure Optimization Program. According to KEDA, it targets the largest repair dry dock in the nation, which will support Ford-class aircraft carriers in the Pacific.
NAVFAC Northwest held a pre-proposal conference in Seattle on Oct. 15. Slides and video from the conference are linked from KEDA’s project page at kitsapeda.me/M2D2.
KEDA’s APEX Accelerator offers free, confidential, one-on-one help with government contracting for small and large companies, including firms hoping to work on the project as subcontractors or suppliers. KEDA says its APEX team is made up of former NAVFAC contracting officers. More information is at kitsapeda.me/APEX.
