What the notice says
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) intends to issue solicitation N0002426R4428 for execution of the USS BOXER (LHD 4) Selected Restricted Availability, planned for fiscal year 2027 (FY27). The solicitation will be issued on a Coast-Wide (West Coast) basis. Upon a contractor�s completion of this Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Availability, the ship shall be capable of carrying out its mission with a reasonable expectation of maintaining a satisfactory condition of readiness until the next CNO-scheduled depot Availability. USS BOXER (LHD 4) FY27 SRA is anticipated to be 19 months, beginning… (show all)
in FEBRUARY 2027 and completing in SEPTEMBER 2028. If the Navy issues a solicitation for this CNO Availability, the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), and the Navy Marine Corps Acquisition Regulation Supplement (NMCARS) will guide the acquisition. The anticipated contract, like all other CNO-scheduled depot Availabilities, is a supply contract. The supply that would be procured is a repaired, mission-ready ship, which shall be returned to service with the Fleet. The anticipated scope of the procurement includes all labor, supervision, production, testing, and quality assurance necessary to prepare for and accomplish this CNO Availability. This CNO Availability is expected to require a highly capable contractor with substantial facilities, including a pier, and human resources capable of completing, coordinating and integrating multiple areas of ship maintenance, repair, and modernization. The Competition in Contracting Act (CICA) requires that full and open competition be used to the maximum extent practicable. 10 USC 8669a allows for the limitation of competition for "short term" availabilities (18 months or less) to the homeport, provided there is adequate competition. As the production period for the USS BOXER availability is greater than 18 months, it will be competed on a coast-wide basis, without limiting the place of performance to the vessel's homeport. The Navy will issue the solicitation electronically on https://piee.eb.mil and www.Sam.gov. Interested offerors are hereby encouraged to monitor https://piee.eb.mil and www.Sam.gov for the anticipated release of the solicitation, and any associated amendments. Offerors shall be registered in the Solicitation Module in PIEE and System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for award. This synopsis is issued in accordance with FAR 5.203(a) and shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or award a contract. The Government will not accept proposals as a result of this synopsis. The Government will not reimburse respondents for any questions submitted or information provided in response to this notice. The Government anticipates issuing a Firm-Fixed Price solicitation in or before March 2026. All responsible sources may submit a proposal, which shall be considered by the agency. USS BOXER Ship Check In preparation for the USS BOXER (LHD 4) FY27 SRA, the Government will make the USS BOXER available to potential Offerors for ship check from 11 March 2026 to 01 April 2026, subject to change.

Value counts single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling; that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's last annual revenue from its 10-K.
- $GD reported $42.3B revenue in FY2025. The median single-winner award in these 28 past awards, $555.8M, is 1% of that. 10-K
One award's total value against one year of revenue; many awards are paid over several years.
