$98.1 million SUBSAFE hardware-fabrication contract ceiling increase
The U.S. Navy awarded four contractors a shared $98.1 million ceiling increase for submarine-safety hardware fabrication and associated engineering services.
The modification extends capacity under a multiple-award contract supporting SUBSAFE and Level 1 hardware fabrication. Work will occur primarily at contractor sites and is expected to continue through November 2029. The announcement states that no money was obligated with this ceiling increase because minimum guarantees were met at the initial awards; funding will instead be placed on future delivery and task orders.
