INDUSTRY DAY- LCS Class Sustainment Execution Contract - Follow-on (SEC West Part II) Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ)
NAVSEA will hold an Industry Day conference on Thursday, 29 June 2017 at Base Theater, San Diego Naval Base. The event will begin at 0930 PST and conclude at 1700 PST. This time will allow for networking opportunities among industry teams. The conference will be hosted by NAVSEA SEA 02 and PMS 505 for the purpose of discussing the Navy's plan for maintenance and repair sustainment execution during FY 18-23.

The Industry Day will begin with a discussion and overview of the contemplated requirement. This contract will be awarded as a multiple award IDIQ and will address all execution of all maintenance, repair, and modernization efforts for LCS Class ships homeported in San Diego, California for a 5 year period during FY18 through FY23.

RSVP: NAVSEA requests that firms interested in attending the Industry Day submit company names and attendee lists no later than 1400 Eastern Time, 19 June 2017 via e-mail to Ms. Jane Thompson, SEA 024, Contract Specialist, jane.thompson1@navy.mil. The subject line of the RSVP email shall be limited to: Industry Day RSVP from (Company Name). The body of the email shall include each attendee's name, Position/Title, email address, phone number, and indicate whether they have a Common Access Card (CAC) or Rapid Gate (32nd street) or DBIDS (32nd street) or Military ID in order to access the base.

(See Enclosure E for additional information)

Base Access: For those without existing base access (CAC card, Rapidgate, DBIDS, retired military ID), additional coordination with base security is required. The Navy will send a base access form (SECNAV 5512) to interested parties without existing base access based on RSVP responses. It is of paramount importance to immediately complete the form and submit it as directed so that you're cleared for access for this Industry Day Event.

One-on-One Sessions: These sessions will only be held in person, in the Base Theater, at the presentation location. The intent of these One-on-One sessions is to provide Industry a private, non-public forum to present the Government with comments, concerns and recommendations. Thus, the One-on-One sessions are designed to consist of mostly one-way communication (from the firm to the Government) as the Government does not intend to share contract strategy information outside of the larger and/or public forum. Companies requesting a One-on-One session must indicate such in their RSVP email. These sessions will be no longer than 20 minutes in length, may be attended by no more than 5 people per company, and will be scheduled on a first come first serve basis. The Government will inform attendees of their scheduled session by 23 June 2017.

General Stipulations and Disclaimers: Recording of the event is not permitted. Other than the planned briefing materials referenced above, the Government does not plan to provide additional information for review and comment prior to the Industry Day. This announcement is not a contract, request for proposal, a promise to contract, or a commitment of any kind on the part of the Government. NAVSEA does not assume liability for costs incurred by an attendee or for travel expenses or marketing efforts; therefore, attendee costs in response to this notice are not considered an allowable direct charge to the Government.

This Special Notice does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a contract or order.
