ManTech has won a 5-year $63 million recompete contract with the Naval Surface Warfare Center Port Hueneme Division to modernize the design of systems for Underway Replenishment at sea.
“Our team’s decades of experience in supporting NSWC engineering requirements are instrumental in advancing UNREP control systems into the digital age for the Navy’s logistics and combat force as well as providing full life cycle support for UNREP systems,” said David Hathaway, president and general manager of ManTech’s defense sector.
“ManTech also brings highly-skilled technicians to refurbish and service UNREP equipment wherever our ships operate, ensuring critical refueling and replenishment capabilities remain available for Navy use.”
Under this contract, ManTech will modernize the design of UNREP capabilities for Carrier and Large Deck Amphibious platforms, enabling the transfer of fuel, munitions and supplies between ships, the company said. It will also support the modernization of the Electronic Standard Replenishment Alongside Method, a system developed at NSWC PHD to increase the speed, safety and flexibility of UNREP.
These innovations are meant to enhance the automation of the systems, and increase their efficiency and capability while providing greater maintainability.
