**Big Blue 3 MAC** Metal printer alterations will be completed onboard USS IWA JIMA (LHD 7), USS BOXER (LHD 4), LHD 8 (USS MAKIN ISLAND)

The title was updated by adding the program name "Big Blue 3 MAC" at the front, ahead of the existing wording about metal printer alterations to be completed onboard USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7), USS Boxer (LHD 4), and LHD 8 (USS Makin Island).

Why it matters for applicants:

• The scope of work and the ships involved are unchanged, so eligibility, requirements, and submission rules appear unaffected by this edit.
• The added prefix identifies the work under the Big Blue 3 MAC (multiple award contract) vehicle. Businesses searching for or tracking this program by that name will now find the notice more easily.
• If you previously monitored this notice under its old title, update any saved searches or alerts to include "Big Blue 3 MAC" so you do not miss related follow-on activity.
• Confirm in the full notice whether the Big Blue 3 MAC reference signals a contract vehicle in which only pre-qualified vendors may compete, since that would affect whether your firm can respond.
