What types of maritime-specific vendors does the Coast Guard prioritize?

The Coast Guard prioritizes vendors capable of supporting vessel sustainment, including marine engineering, specialized hull repair, and navigation systems integration. Companies with experience in DHS-compliant supply chain security and maritime logistics are highly competitive.

How does the Coast Guard handle facility and base infrastructure contracts?

Infrastructure projects are managed through the Coast Guard's civil engineering units, which focus on shore facility maintenance, pier construction, and environmental remediation. These contracts often utilize small business set-asides for construction and architectural services.

Are security clearances required for most Coast Guard contracts?

While many operational support contracts require personnel to hold a Secret clearance, many facility maintenance and commercial-off-the-shelf supply contracts do not. Vendors should verify the specific security requirements listed in each individual solicitation package.
