This document is a combined synopsis/solicitation notice (N3220525Q0027) from the Military Sealift Command for commercial products and services, issued as a Request for Quotes (RFQ). The award will be made to Rolls-Royce Solutions America, Inc. as a sole-source vendor, provided their quote is technically acceptable and fair/reasonable. The procurement falls under NAICS code 811310 and PSC/FSC J020, and is not set aside for small businesses. The solicitation includes Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for various Trenton, Yuma, and Newport items. A firm-fixed-price purchase order is anticipated, with delivery FOB Destination as per the Statement of Work (SOW). Quotes are due by December 16, 2025, at 4:00 PM and must be emailed to Matias Parker. Evaluation will consider technical capability, price, and past performance. The document also details instructions for Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) invoicing, duty-free entry, ship/base access requirements, and provides two wage determinations (2015-4341 for North Carolina/Virginia and 2015-5217 for Texas) outlining minimum wage rates, fringe benefits, holidays, and specific instructions for computer employees and air traffic controllers/weather observers.
The Department of the Navy, Military Sealift Command (MSC) Norfolk, is awarding a sole source, firm-fixed-price purchase order to Rolls-Royce Solutions/MTU America, the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), for T-EPF Class vessels' Main Propulsion Diesel Engines (MPDE), model 20V8000M71L. This action is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) due to the OEM being the only responsible source capable of providing the necessary materials and technical services for 12/14K hourly based maintenance on USNS TRENTON and 5-year calendar-based maintenance on USNS YUMA and USNS NEWPORT. The specialized design of the EPF Class ships for these specific engines, and the critical need to maintain class configuration, interchangeability, and safety, prevent the use of non-OEM parts or services due to unacceptable redesign costs and potential safety risks. Rolls-Royce/MTU America maintains proprietary information regarding these parts and services, which the Government does not possess. MSC has no current plans to allow non-OEM suppliers for future contracts, but will assess feasibility if another potential source emerges.
