Induction Mast Standpipe Thermal Spray Repair Services

This Statement of Work (SOW) outlines a non-personnel services contract for thermal spray repair of a submarine induction mast standpipe for the SSBN 737 USS Kentucky. The Trident Refit Facility, Bangor, WA (TRFB) requires commercial services to restore the standpipe's outer surface due to wear and corrosion, as USN shipyards lack the necessary capabilities. The contractor must be NAVSEA-certified for thermal spray processes and will be responsible for all personnel, equipment, and materials. The period of performance is from May 1, 2026, to July 31, 2026, at the contractor's CONUS facility, under a Firm-Fixed Price Contract. Key requirements include adhering to specific NAVSEA and TRFB engineering standards for surface preparation, thermal spray application (INCONEL 625 or METCO 444), and final machining. The contractor must provide weekly progress reports, a Conditions Found Report, and a Thermal Spray Record Form. TRFB will handle initial shipping to the contractor, while the contractor is responsible for return shipping to TRFB, ensuring proper documentation and adherence to delivery protocols at Naval Base Kitsap Bangor.
