NAVSEA has awarded multiple Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for a wide range of engineering, technical, and programmatic services and solutions for the Virtual SYSCOM (NAVSEA, NAVAIR, NAVSUP, SPAWAR, Strategic Systems Program (SSP), NAVFAC) as well as Commander, Naval Installations (CNI) and the US Marine Corps. SeaPort-e furthers the Navy’s Seapower 21 objective to increase efficiency, and allows for tailoring services according to the needs of geographically-dispersed organizations with significantly diverse product area requirements and missions.
In 2006, the U.S. Naval Surface Warfare Center awarded an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Prime Contract to Wakelight Technologies, Inc. to provide a wide range of engineering, technical, and programmatic services and solutions.

About SeaPort-e
Support from Wakelight under SeaPort-e are available to authorized users in five zones (1, 2, 3, 4, and 6). Wakelight is committed to delivering client solutions that meet or exceed expectations. We can guide you through the entire procurement process, from the decision to use the SeaPort-e contract vehicle through award and performance, and will be on hand to answer any questions you may have in preparing the necessary documentation.
In general, customers identify in what Zone the work is to be performed, create their standard solicitation package (less data not needed and covered by the already awarded SeaPort-e contract) and upload through the SeaPort-e portal. Through the portal, the TO RFP is published for competition to those prime contractors qualified in the Zone where the work is to be performed. Prime contractors in that zone submit their proposals through the SeaPort-e portal for evaluation. The Customer evaluates the proposals, and makes an award – straight forward and simple by comparison.
Advantages:
- Electronic Procurement. SeaPort-e procurements occur electronically through a single NAVSEA portal. On the web site, our customers are SeaPort-e Buyers, and must register on the portal as a Buyer. Customers use their local Contracting Offices and Contracts Administrators to register and process procurement documents. On SeaPort-e, we are a Seller.
- Fast Procurement Timelines. Procurements on SeaPort-e are streamlined, and typically occur in 5-30 days and are nominally 12- 20 days in duration. Customers decide what the procurement timeline will be, and most favored companies generally can respond to quick, 10 day or less RFP response times.
- Less Procurement Documentation. Customers do not have to create standard contract clauses, terms and conditions, or solicitation data such as Section K (Reps & Certs) because these contract items are covered by the all encompassing SeaPort-e contract.
- Notification of Opportunities. SeaPort-e contract synopsis and procurement intentions are not announced on NECO or FedbizOps. They are only announced to SeaPort-e prime contractors and their team members through automatic e-mailings
Flexibility. Customers can use SeaPort-e for large, complex, high value engineering support services, or to procure small dollar value procurements (<$5M) with no more than a 10 page RFP package.
