SeaPort-e Contracts Information and Support Overview

SeaPort-e Contracts Information and Support Overview

SeaPort Enhanced (SeaPort-e) made electronic procurement of engineering, technical and programmatic support services at NAVSEA a reality. The Navy Virtual SYSCOM (VS) Commanders (NAVAIR, NAVSEA, NAVSUP, and SPAWAR) have decided to leverage the successes and efficiencies of the SeaPort-e business model by designating SeaPort-e the vehicle of choice for future engineering, financial, and program management contractor support services.

SeaPort-e is an electronic, web-based portal where requests for services are managed from “cradle to grave”. SeaPort-e is an extension of the current SeaPort procurement vehicle used at NAVSEA. This “paper-less” system promotes time efficiency and a reduction in administrative costs. Competition on a task order basis results in cost savings in addition to the already capped fees and pass-through rates established on the SeaPort-e MACs.
