US Naval Sea Systems Command awarded the company a contract including options worth $244 million for the detailed design and construction of two Auxiliary Personnel Lighter Small APL class berthing barges. The delivery of the two vessels is expected in the second and third quarter of 2020. Options for a further four vessels could be exercised for delivery between 2019 and 2022.
