Maintenance and Repair

The maintenance and repair of Navy vessels is a crucial and costly process that requires complex technical knowledge, dedicated tooling and hardware, and skilled workforce distributed around the globe. Developing solutions to improve Navy maintenance and repair evolutions directly increases the readiness of the fleet and the availability of resources across the maintenance enterprise.

Implementation of new technology for the maintenance or repair of turbine generators, pumps and motors, condensers / heat exchangers, valves, piping, instrumentation and control hardware, circuit cards, sensors, and cables supports the Navy’s goals to improve operational availability of fleet assets.

The Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program is seeking solutions that can be qualified and deployed in the next 12 to 24 months and can perform mechanical and/or electrical sustainment/maintenance and repairs of Naval Nuclear propulsion plants. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

· Shipboard pipe inspection and repair technologies, both short-term repair, and life-of ship solutions. · Temporary or emergent repair solutions at the point of use for either mechanical or electrical systems (to include but not limited to in-situ repairs on high-temperature, high-pressure, and/or high-voltage systems). · Electrical system and component troubleshooting, especially electric motors and circuitry for devices at the card level. · Biofouling identification and removal from systems, and/or components/features/ hull. · Non-intrusive inspection technologies to determine coating and/or substrate integrity.

The proposal solution should enable efficient and timely maintenance or repair operations, improving asset availability, reducing downtime, and enhancing safety and reliability. *Note to proposers: Within the RFP documents you will see refrence to a P-303 form and a SF-328 form. You only need to submit a SF-328 form with your submittal not a P-303
