Not yet solicited

About 7 months until the solicitation is expected. This is the window a capture team works in — enough time to build a relationship, understand the requirement, and line up teaming partners.

Solicitation expected: May 20, 2027
Anticipated award: December 6, 2027 · Q1 2028
Estimated value: $2M to $5M
Period of performance: December 6, 2027 to December 5, 2028
Contract type: Firm Fixed Price
Expected vehicle: PO (FAR Subpart 13.5)
Competition: New Requirement, No Contract

No incumbent. A new requirement means nobody is defending a position here, and no one has an insider’s head start on the scope.

Who to talk to

At the forecast stage there is no active procurement, so contact is welcome rather than restricted — this is the one window where a direct conversation is straightforwardly appropriate.

Statement of work, as posted

The 282-FT USCGC ALEX HALEY (WMEC-39) Ship Service Switchboards are no longer supportable and require replacement. This project entails the replacement of the ship's service switchboards through a comprehensive three-phase process covering design, fabrication, and installation support. The new 450 VAC, three-phase switchboard must adhere to strict dimensional constraints, with a maximum size of 192 inches in length, 25.25 inches in depth, and 81 inches in height, and must be built to UL 891 and IEEE 45 standards. Designed for a marine environment, it will consist of four separable sections to facilitate rigging and installation and must withstand up to 45° rolls and 10° pitch. Additionally, the vendor will be required to perform critical electrical system analyses, including studies on fault currents, protective device coordination, arc flash, and failure modes.
