THIS SPECIAL NOTICE IS A SOURCES SOUGHT FOR MARKET RESEARCH AND IS FOR INFORMATIONAL AND PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. THERE IS NO FUNDING ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.
BACKGROUND:
The Naval Sea System Command (NAVSEA) is issuing this Special Notice on behalf of the Amphibious Assault and Connectors Program Office (PMS317) to assist with informing the Acquisition Strategy to increase production of the Landing Craft, Utility (LCU) 1700 Class of amphibious landing craft. The Government is conducting market research to identify parties with both interest and resources to support a program that would rapidly recapitalize the Navy-s LCUs and increase production output. The results of this market research will contribute to the LCU 1610 replacement program, known as the LCU 1700 program.
LCUs are typically transported in the well decks of amphibious warships and are used across the range of military operations to deliver vehicles, personnel and cargo from the sea to the shore and from shore to shore. They are also used to support Building Partnership missions, to provide dive team or small boat support, to assist in port clearing, to conduct limited surveillance, and to support many other missions enabled by its open cargo deck, intra-theater range, and independent operations capability.
