Induction Mast Standpipe Thermal Spray Repair Services

The Department of the Navy, acting through the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard IMF, issued solicitation N4523A26Q0808 for commercial thermal spray surface deposition repair services. This requirement supports the SSBN 737 USS Kentucky Extended Refit Period maintenance availability at the Trident Refit Facility in Bangor, Washington. The contractor will restore the outer wear surface of an induction mast standpipe to remediate wear and corrosion defects that do not meet NAVSEA maintenance standards.

This procurement is designated as an SBA (SBA) set-aside under NAICS 332812 Metal Coating, Engraving (except Jewelry and Silverware), and Allied Services to Manufacturers and PSC J020 MAINT/REPAIR/REBUILD OF EQUIPMENT- SHIP AND MARINE EQUIPMENT. Because the repairs involve components removed from United States Navy vessels, the thermal spray entity must utilize deposition processes and facilities certified by NAVSEA. Documentation for this notice includes eight attachments, providing government-furnished property details, technical drawings, request for clarification responses, and solicitation amendments.

The performance period begins at the time of award, with a required delivery date of July 31, 2026. Although the equipment is associated with the Bangor facility, the primary place of performance is Bremerton, Washington. Responses to this combined synopsis and solicitation are due by May 14, 2026, and Katherine Lauer is the point of contact for the effort.
