The U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces awarded a $43,103 firm fixed-price delivery order to Virginia Pilot Association on January 13, 2026, for pilot services in Norfolk, Virginia, with completion scheduled for February 12, 2027. This contract was designated as a Total Small Business set-aside and was issued as a delivery order under Virginia Pilot Association's foundational indefinite delivery contract valued at approximately $8.996 million with the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk, which extends through October 2025 and serves as the vehicle for task order issuance. Virginia Pilot Association is a for-profit maritime services organization headquartered in Virginia Beach that has served as Virginia's exclusive state-licensed pilotage service provider since its SAM.gov registration in April 2002.

Virginia Pilot Association specializes in providing critical maritime navigation assistance throughout the Chesapeake Bay region and surrounding coastal waters extending from Cape Henry to the Potomac River, delivering essential pilot services that guide commercial vessels, government-owned ships, and naval craft safely through strategically important waterways vital to naval logistics and military sealift operations in the Mid-Atlantic region. The organization's federal contracting activity has been dominated by delivery orders for pilot services supporting Department of Navy operations, with individual awards historically ranging from approximately $10,000 to $597,000. These services directly facilitate the safe transit of U.S.-flagged vessels, foreign and allied vessels, Military Sealift Command time-chartered vessels, and foreign military sales vessels through Norfolk and surrounding areas, enabling the transportation of equipment, supplies, and personnel essential to naval fleet operations and readiness.
