The U.S. Navy's NAVSEA, PEO USC/PMS300G program office is transitioning to a Composite Multi-Award (IDIQ) Contract for composite boats ranging from 5m to 20m, primarily 7m and 11m RIBs and 9m Multi-use Explosive Ordnance Disposal Response Craft (MERC)s. This shift, with a contract ceiling of ~$650M over 10 years (5 base, 5 option years), aims to streamline contracting, reduce acquisition time, and foster competition, including small business growth. The contract will be a Small Business Set-Aside. The Request for Proposal (RFP) is anticipated in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2026. Proposals for the MAC will be simplified, focusing on production facilities, manpower, and past performance relevant to similar craft. Delivery Orders will be competitively awarded with flexible pricing and tailored selection criteria, emphasizing best value or Lowest Price Technically Acceptable. The government reserves the right to add more IDIQ-MAC holders in the future. Interested parties should monitor SAM.gov and PIEE Solicitation Module for updates.

The “40’ Patrol Boat (40PB) Industry Day Attachment 1” outlines the Attendee Participation Response Form for an Industry Day event focused on the 40PB. This form is designed to collect essential information from participating companies, including company name, website URL, and primary point of contact details (name, phone number, and email). A key component of the form is the requirement to list attendees' names and confirm their U.S. citizenship. For non-U.S. citizens, the form mandates providing their nationality and explicitly states that their email address must be submitted by July 2, 2024, to facilitate additional verification in compliance with Navy protocols. The document serves as a critical administrative tool for managing participation and ensuring compliance with security requirements for the Industry Day.
