    Description

    The RB-S Demonstrator procurement aims to acquire up to four different demonstration articles to assist the United States Coast Guard (USCG) in validating operational requirements and developing source selection criteria for the next generation of Response Boat–Small (RB-S). These boats will be used to evaluate designs, features, and options the USCG may consider incorporating or prioritizing in the next generation of RB-S. 

    This requirement will be conducted under the following U.S. Code provisions, listed in descending order of precedence, regarding the requirement to build boats for the Government within the United States: (a) 14 USC § 665 - Restriction on Construction of Vessels in Foreign Shipyards and (b) 10 USC § 7309 - Construction of Vessels in Foreign Shipyards: Prohibition.

    The Government intends to award up to four (4) individual Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contracts. The Government will evaluate written proposals using the trade-off process.

    The Request for Proposal (RFP) is expected to be released in October 2025 via https://beta.sam.gov/.

    Proposals will be required 45 days after RFP release.

    After the award, the boat will be required to be delivered within 90 days.
