The Department of Navy’s Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) Maritime, in coordination with the Department of Transportation Maritime Administration (MARAD), invites interested firms to attend an Auxiliary Ships Industry Day covering the following acquisition programs:

• PAE Maritime’s Bulk Fuel Consolidated Cargo (CONSOL) Tanker


• PAE Maritime’s Next Generation Hospital Ship (T-AH(X))


• MARAD’s Roll-on/Roll-off (RO/RO) Vessel Program


• MARAD’s Vessel Acquisition Manager (VAM) 2.0

The purpose of this engagement is to provide an overview of each program's requirements and engage with Vessel Construction Managers (VCMs), shipyards, and key suppliers to obtain industry feedback that will support market research and inform ship design and acquisition strategies.

The Auxiliary Ships Industry Day will span two days, Wednesday, 5 August 2026 and Thursday, 6 August 2026. PAE Maritime and MARAD will offer presentations on the covered programs during a morning session on Wednesday, 5 August 2026. Registered attendees will have the opportunity to schedule a one-on-one session with PAE Maritime and/or MARAD officials starting the afternoon of 5 August and continuing into Thursday, 6 August 2026. The event will be held in-person at a location in the vicinity of the Washington Navy Yard in the District of Columbia.

Organizations interested in attending the event and scheduling an individual breakout session must complete and submit the registration form at [link removed due to capacity limit].

Registration is required for all attendees. Verified registrants will receive further details regarding the event and event location.

The Government will notify registered attendees of approval to attend this event no later than Wednesday, 29 July 2026. The Government reserves the right to modify or cancel this event at any time.
