About this award

Superior Marine Ways, Inc., a small business shipbuilder based in South Point, Ohio, was awarded a $30 million firm fixed-price definitive contract on November 6, 2024, to design and construct two triple screw towboats for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Philadelphia District (ENDIST Philadelphia). The contract, which carries a Total Small Business set-aside designation, is scheduled for completion by July 19, 2027. These vessels will support the Corps of Engineers' civil works missions, including navigation, flood risk reduction, and water resource management along the nation's inland waterways. The 2,400 horsepower towboats represent critical infrastructure assets that will enhance the Corps' capacity to transport cargo and support lock and dam operations.

This award reflects Superior Marine Ways' established expertise in maritime vessel construction and repair services for federal customers. The company, registered as a Subchapter S Corporation and small business manufacturer since 2001, has demonstrated capability through previous government contracts ranging from $60,726 to significant capital projects. The company's selection for this substantial contract was supported by recent infrastructure investments, including a $838,221 Maritime Administration grant awarded in July 2023 to upgrade its manufacturing capabilities with CNC brake and plasma table equipment. The contract will be performed at Superior Marine Ways' South Point, Ohio facility, leveraging the company's enhanced technological capabilities to deliver these critical inland waterway assets.
