A Bechtel National company has landed a Department of Defense contract modification worth nearly $928 million for naval nuclear propulsion components, the Pentagon said last week.
Bechtel Plant Machinery., Monroeville, Pa., was awarded the modification to a previously awarded cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, according to a Dec. 19 summary of contract news from the Pentagon.
About two-thirds of the work will be done at Monroeville and the rest at Schenectady, N.Y., according to the Pentagon contract notice.
The work, which should be finished by September 2035, was not competitively bid, the Pentagon said in the notice, citing “only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.”
