The purpose of this Statement of Work (SOW) is to obtain Contractor Acquisition, Logistics, Configuration Management, and Technical Support Services to support the United States Coast Guard (USCG) Project Resident Office Gulf Coast (PROGC).
These support services require on-site at PROGC facilities, on-demand surge support, and a contractor furnished warehouse to augment PROGC capability as dictated by ship construction issues and PROGC resource availability.
Specialties of work to be performed include: Quality Assurance (QA), Combat Systems Technical, Engineering Technical Program Management, QA Process and Deficiency Records Management, Acquisition and Life Cycle Logistics, Configuration Management (CM), Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) Property Management, Project Management, Test Plan Management, Data Management, and Government Furnished Material (GFM) Management.
As the Project Manager for this contract you will support the USCG in acquiring highly capable National Security Cutters (NSC), officially designated as the Coast Guard, Maritime Security Cutter, Large (WMSL), Legend Class. The USCG PROGC is responsible to the USCG Acquisition Surface Directorate (CG-932) for oversight and management of the production and delivery contracts for the NSCs that are being constructed at the Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII) Shipbuilding located in Pascagoula, Mississippi (MS). PROGC is co-located with HII.
The USCG NSC Program has currently accepted 9 cutters with the 10th and 11th cutters in production. These cutters span multiple stages of the acquisition cycle from the beginning stages of construction,
post-delivery and transition to sustainment. There is continuing congressional interest for additional NSCs as part of future appropriations; there is potential for NSC 12 production to be awarded. The NSC build cycle is approximately three years elapsed time for each NSC from contract award. The NSC Program is dynamic and requires flexibility and innovation. While the main design of the ship is stable it does require constant contract assurance oversight and creativity to ensure the systems continue to remain effective and optimal to the fleet and to meet the sponsor requirements while maintaining cost, schedule and performance parameters.
