C. 20548 FILE: B-187048 DATE: September 28, 19T6 MATTER OF: Coastal Dry Dock & Repair Corporation DIGEST: Bid for ship repair from large shipyard having both dry dock and topside repair facilities is responsive even though it was only for topside work, since IFB lot bidding provision required separate bids upon dry dock work, top- side work, and combination thereof only from bidders who felt capable of doing entire job. Possession of both dry dock and topside facilities in itself does not obligate bidder to bid upon each type of work plus combination thereof: bidder must be interested in performing entire job. Coastal Dry Dock & Repair Corporation (Coastal) protests the proposed award of a contract to Todd Shipyards Corporation (Todd) for repair work on the USS FISKE (DD-842) under Invitationfor Bids (IFB) No. 62794-76-B-0037, issued by the Supervisor of Shipbuilding Conversion & Repair, Brooklyn, New York. The task of overhauling the USS FISKE was divided into three lots: dry dock work; topside work (also referred to as afloat work in the IFB); and a combination of dry dock and afloat work. We are advised that this lot bidding procedure is intended to obtain maximum competition by allowing firms which were capable of performing on only one lot to compete for that lot. The lot bidding procedure was explained by the IFB as follows: Those bidders who cannot dry dock the vessel are requested to submit a bid based on the Afloat Work. Those bidders who can dry dock the vessel are required to submit separate bids based on the Dry dock Work, Afloat Work and Combination of Dry dock and Afloat Work. -(1
