Guam Shipyard in Santa Rita, Guam, is being awarded a $5.2 million firm-fixed-price for the regular overhaul of USNS Concord (T-AFS 5). USNS Concord is one of Military Sealift Command’s five Mars Class Combat Stores Ships and is part of the 36 ships in the Naval Fleet Auxiliary Force. Along with her sister ship the USNS San Jose, she was active during the recent tsunami relief efforts.

This contract contains options that will bring the total cumulative value of the contract to $7 million if exercised. Work will be performed in Santa Rita, Guam, and is expected to be complete by November 2005. This contract was a sole source procurement by the U.S. Navy’s Sealift Logistics Command Far East (N62404-05-C-0014).
