This work will be done in coordination with the on-going Engineered Overhaul being executed by Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, and was assigned to the private sector based on workload constraints at the public shipyards.

This contract includes a negotiated priced option which, if exercised, would bring the cumulative value of this delivery order to $100,000,000.

Work will be performed in Portsmouth, N.H. (35 percent); Newport News, Va. (25 percent); Groton, Conn. (20 percent), and Quonset Point, R.I. (20 percent), and is expected to be completed by June 2013. Contract funds in the amount of $94,000,000 will expire at the end of the current fiscal year. The order was not competitively procured.
