The Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) awarded a $1.74M firm fixed-price purchase order to Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp (Fleet Solutions division) on September 4, 2025, for the procurement and repair of compressor units (NSN 7H-4310-014721365, Model N20NL-12C). The contract, which carries no set-aside designation despite originating from a Total Small Business set-aside solicitation, has an ultimate completion date of October 19, 2026, and will be performed in Chesapeake, Virginia. Curtiss-Wright, a subsidiary of Curtiss-Wright Corporation and a specialized provider of naval equipment and engineering services, brings over 90 years of expertise in supporting U.S. Navy surface ships and submarines with high-pressure air compressors and related mechanical systems.
The award addresses the Department of the Navy's requirement for three compressor units designated for repair and modification, with the government having determined it uneconomical to purchase technical data rights or reverse engineer the component. As an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for proprietary naval technologies, Curtiss-Wright Fleet Solutions is well-positioned to deliver this specialized equipment through its extensive history performing maintenance, repair, and overhaul work on critical naval systems. The company's previous contract work with NAVSUP, Naval Sea Systems Command, and other Defense Logistics Agency entities demonstrates its established capability in this procurement category.
