Contract Award: EnergySolutions Services Inc. (Oak Ridge, Tennessee) – $13,336,650

EnergySolutions Services Inc., Oak Ridge, Tennessee, is being awarded a $13,336,650 firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract action (N42158-25-D-E001) for nuclear services for the processing, recycling and disposal of radiologic materials through disassembly, decontamination, metal melting, compaction, incineration, resin sluicing/dewater, bulk waste assay and to include provisions for supply of shipping containers, brokerage services and transportation of materials from various Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program sites. This contract includes options which, if exercised, would bring the cumulative value of this contract to $75,209,816. Work will be performed in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and is expected to be completed by April 2026. If all options are exercised, work will continue through April 2030. Fiscal 2025 operations and maintenance (Navy) funds in the amount of $1,500 (minimum contract guarantee) will be obligated at time of award. All other funding will be made available at the delivery order levels as contracting actions occur. This contract was not competitively procured via Federal Acquisition Regulation Section 6.302-1, “Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.” Radioactive waste services were provided competitively with a single offer received for the continued development or production of a major system or highly specialized equipment, including major components thereof, as it is likely that award to any other source would result in either the duplication of cost to the government that is not expected to be covered by competition, or unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency’s requirements. Norfolk Naval Shipyard, Portsmouth, Virginia, is the contracting activity.
