Amendment N6264926RA0440002 extends the solicitation closing date for a NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Yokosuka requirement to May 18, 2026, at 10:00 AM JST. This amendment pertains to a Master Agreement for the Repair and Alteration of Vessels (MARAV) for the USS HIGGINS (DDG 76). Only firms with an active U.S. Master Ship Repair Agreement (MSRA) or Agreement for Boat Repair (ABR) as a Prime Contractor are eligible for award, and they must operate and do business in Japan.

This amendment to solicitation N6264926RA0440001, effective May 4, 2026, details changes to a government procurement document. The primary purposes are to cancel TGI 38KB312389A01, revise Section J, and address a question regarding critical coated areas. The government clarified that critical coated areas are not described in the TGIs because the preservation work is for touch-ups on visually inspected, coating-removed areas. The requirement for critical coated area preservation is waived for areas not exceeding 10 square feet or 10% of the total paint area; otherwise, additional requirements will be processed. Section J, which lists attachments, has been modified to include various work specifications and forms like the Proposal Breakdown Form and Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan. The amendment specifies that all other terms and conditions of the original document remain unchanged.
