About this award
Pacific Rim Shipbrokers, Inc., a woman-owned small business headquartered in Bainbridge Island, Washington, received a delivery order valued at $567,515.59 from the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) on December 23, 2022, for submarine escort services. The contract, which is firm fixed price with no set-aside designation, was completed by February 17, 2023, and required performance at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton, Washington. Under this delivery order, Pacific Rim Shipbrokers provided specialized maritime support using a privately owned U.S. flag commercial vessel equipped with advanced navigation and communication systems to maintain clearance watch areas and support submarine testing and navigation operations in the Puget Sound region.
This delivery order represents one of six separate contract vehicles awarded to Pacific Rim Shipbrokers by NAVSEA between December 2022 and October 2025, with values ranging from approximately $239,000 to $977,000. The company's core capability involves operating vessels capable of maintaining 10 knots speed while conducting extended maritime operations in challenging sea conditions, positioning it as a reliable provider for NAVSEA's submarine escort and range clearance requirements. Pacific Rim Shipbrokers has subsequently expanded its federal portfolio significantly, securing two additional Indefinite Delivery Contracts—a $4.2 million NAVSEA submarine escort contract awarded in August 2024 and a $49.99 million National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration contract for ocean observation system maintenance awarded in December 2025.
