Welcome to the Compass Contracts Group (CCG) SeaPort-e (SeaPort Enhanced) website portal. CCG is a small business concern that will act as both a prime and sub contractor in this Navy procurement program. This specialized program affords DOD agencies with a streamlined flexibility to access our professional team of ready and trained contract personnel.

CCG and its team members have over 75 years of contract management experience in administrative support services, warehousing, supply, logistics, and engineering (digitization) services throughout the Continental United States (CONUS). It is these Team CCG services that are provided to users of the Seaport-e procurement process.

The Naval Sea Systems Command Seaport-e website expands on this process:

SeaPort-e has made electronic procurement of Engineering, Financial, and Program Management support services a reality. Using SeaPort-e, the Navy Virtual SYSCOM (VS) Commanders (NAVAIR, NAVSEA, NAVSUP and SPAWAR) has adopted an integrated approach to contracting for support services. The SeaPort-e portal provides a standardized means of issuing competitive solicitations amongst a large & diverse community of approved contractors, as well as a platform for awarding & managing performance-based task orders. This unified approach allows SeaPort-e service procurement teams to leverage their best work products, practices, & approaches across the Navy's critical service business sector.

Simply stated, SeaPort-e provides a faster, better, & more cost-effective means of contracting for professional 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.

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) procures over a half billion dollars of Professional Support Services (PSS) each year for its headquarters' Directorates, Program Executive Offices (PEOs), and field activities. In order to meet the Navy strategic sourcing wedge, NAVSEA committed to $250M in savings by procuring PSS more efficiently. Coupled with this need, the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) directed that 50% of all support services be procured using performance based contracting by the year 2005. Furthermore, NAVSEA had more than 450 separate PSS contracts supporting its requirements. Most of these efforts were not integrated from a Command perspective, utilized a multitude of different processes in which to procure the services, and did not leverage corporate buying habits or e-business to facilitate the processes

NAVSEA established the SeaPort Office to meet these the NAVSEA strategic sourcing wedge and the OSD performance based contracting directive while bringing order to NAVSEA PSS acquisitions. The vision was to provide a faster, better, and cheaper means in which to procure PSS.
