Warehousing HII PMA Material for LHA/LHD Programs

The Supervisor of Shipbuilding, Conversion, and Repair, Gulf Coast (SSGC) intends to conduct a sole-source procurement for the warehousing of specified material for the LHD and LHA Programs in support of FY18 Phased Maintenance Availability (PMA). Requirements specify the contractor to provide warehousing and Preparation for shipping of Large Deck Amphibious material procurement. The place of performance will be Pascagoula, MS. Work is projected to start in March 2018 with an expected duration through approximately March 2019. These requirements will be procured as a Delivery Order under the terms and conditions of Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N00024-16-G-4305 issued to Huntington Ingalls Incorporated, Ingalls Shipbuilding (Ingalls), 1000 Access Road, Pascagoula, MS 39568. The work to be performed under this Delivery Order is for the warehousing of material that Ingalls Shipbuilding will procure. With this material being procured by Ingalls, it will need to be adequately accounted for, secured, and maintained properly. Eventually this material will need to be kitted and shipped to the appropriate facility when required. Because of this process, it is essential for Ingalls to warehouse this material as to not add potential risk with using a third party for this function.
