BAE Systems‘ ship repair business in Norfolk, Virginia, will help the U.S. Navy carry out extended dry-docking selected restricted availability activities for an Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer under a potential $123.9 million contract.
The project covers modernization, repair and maintenance work on the USS Ross (DDG 71) vessel for fiscal year 2023, the Department of Defense said Friday.
Naval Sea Systems Command received competitive proposals for the firm-fixed-price contract via a full and open competition on the SAM.gov website.
The company will receive an initial $107.7 million to provide services to the branch through March 2024.
USS Ross is one of the four Forward Deployed Naval Forces-Europe ships built to operate in support of NATO’s Integrated Air Missile Defense architecture.
