About this award

The U.S. Coast Guard awarded a delivery order valued at $66,156.40 to UMS Metal Fabricators Inc., a small business manufacturer of maritime signaling equipment based in Mobile, Alabama. This fixed-price contract with economic price adjustment provisions calls for the delivery of steel ocean buoys, with an ultimate completion date of September 11, 2025. The award was made without a set-aside designation, though the contractor operates under a larger Coast Guard indefinite delivery contract that is designated as a 100% small business set-aside.

This delivery order is issued under a significant indefinite delivery contract valued at $29.3 million that runs through August 2028, through which the Coast Guard procures steel ocean buoys, buoy parts, towers, and related maritime signaling equipment to support its aids to navigation program. UMS Metal Fabricators, a subsidiary of Universal Marine Services Inc., has established itself as a critical supplier of navigational aids and maritime safety infrastructure to federal agencies, with contract values historically ranging from approximately $10,000 to $2 million. The economic price adjustment mechanism in the contract structure allows for cost adjustments based on fluctuations in steel and diesel fuel prices, reflecting the material-intensive nature of buoy manufacturing and delivery operations.
