Coast Guard seeks contractor to clean Alex Haley waste tanks in Seward

Contractors have until Aug. 24 at noon Eastern to bid on a four-day maintenance job cleaning the cutter Alex Haley's waste tanks, with the work scheduled for Sept. 4 through Sept. 7 at JAG Alaska Inc., 3306 Sorrel Road in Seward. The U.S. Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center issued the solicitation, numbered 2126406Y6176H99002, for high-pressure cleaning of the forward and aft grey water tanks and bilges aboard the vessel.

Quotes go to Courtney J. Brown, the contracting point of contact, at [email protected]; every emailed quote must carry 2126406Y6176H99002 in the subject line. Vendors that need to see the vessel before bidding should contact Richard Cress to schedule a site visit.

The notice is a request for quote: a solicitation issued without a separate written solicitation to follow. The award will be a firm-fixed-price purchase order, meaning a single agreed price for the defined scope, selected on a best-value basis weighing technical requirements, deadlines, and price under the streamlined FAR 13 simplified acquisition procedures (the federal government's expedited process for lower-value purchases). No advance payments will be made; invoicing runs through the federal Invoice Processing Platform on Net 30 terms.
