The Naval Supply Systems Command awarded a $319,053 firm fixed-price purchase order to Propulsion Controls Engineering, a San Diego-based small business, for the repair and overhaul of alternating current motors on August 26, 2025. The contract is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside and carries an ultimate completion date of January 12, 2026. Work will be performed at the contractor's San Diego facility and involves repair services for motors with specific cage codes and reference numbers (54ZA4 801641-500 and 9R328 801641-500) according to standard repair practices and approved technical procedures. The procurement was issued under Emergency Acquisition Flexibilities with an accelerated 21-day Repair Turnaround Time (RTAT) requirement measured from physical receipt to final government acceptance, with Government Source Inspection required and penalties assessed for delays exceeding the specified timeframe.
Propulsion Controls Engineering is an established maritime repair and maintenance provider with over two decades of federal contracting experience supporting U.S. Navy vessel operations. The company maintains a robust portfolio of IDIQ contracts with Naval Sea Systems Command, including a $35 million small business set-aside IDIQ for pump and motor repairs within a 50-mile radius of San Diego through March 2029, which likely serves as the parent vehicle for this delivery order. The contractor has demonstrated extensive expertise in propulsion system maintenance and specialized components procurement, serving as both a prime contractor and subcontractor to major defense firms including BAE Systems, Lockheed Martin, and National Steel and Shipbuilding Company.
