A-Pak Solutions

A-Pak Solutions, a Seabeck, Washington-based sole proprietorship, supplies industrial maintenance materials and specialized naval components to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders, competing predominantly full-and-open without set-aside designation, though approximately 40% of awards carry total small business set-asides. The company has maintained active federal contracting since 2010 and is a small business concern.

A-Pak Solutions' capability footprint is narrow and transaction-focused: the vendor procures and delivers discrete industrial and naval supply items—hardware (fasteners, bolts, screws, washers), metal fabrications (hose assemblies, fittings, connectors, splice components), valves, gaskets, seals, protective equipment (gloves, coveralls, safety gear), and specialized naval components (hydraulic pumps, electronic connectors, acoustic decoupling tiles, mechanical tachometers). Recent representative awards include a $155,960 fire-resistant coveralls delivery to Naval Sea Systems Command (May 2024, total small business set-aside), a $117,620 fifty-foot steam hose assembly to NAVSEA (September 2022, total small business set-aside), a $106,410 delivery of eighty mechanical tachometers for BAK-12 aircraft arresting systems to Air Education and Training Command (February 2022, total small business set-aside), a $82,500 gasket sheet procurement from NAVSEA (November 2023, total small business set-aside), and a $71,684 hex head bolt order from NAVSEA (September 2025, total small business set-aside). The vendor does not hold parent contract vehicles; all awards are direct purchase orders.

Customer concentration is extreme and poses risk: Naval Sea Systems Command represents 330 of 407 awards (81% of volume) and $4.9 million of the $5.9 million combined potential value (83% of dollars). The top five customer agencies account for 95% of awards and 92% of potential value. Beyond NAVSEA, activity is minimal—Defense Logistics Agency Distribution placed 22 awards ($126 thousand), Navy Installations Command placed 15 ($81 thousand), U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces placed 13 ($91 thousand), and Naval Strategic Systems Programs placed 6 ($86 thousand). A single outlier, Air Force Materiel Command Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex, accounts for 2 awards and $230 thousand (tachometer procurement), but this represents a one-time or sporadic relationship not repeated in recent years.

Activity has been flat to declining. The vendor received 36 awards in 2022, 57 in 2023, 54 in 2024, 47 in 2025, and 9 in the first four months of 2026. All awards are small purchase orders—the largest single award in the source is $282,000 for IR seals (August 2023, NAVSEA), and most fall in the $2 thousand to $50 thousand range. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontracting relationships identified; no sub-awards appear in the source.

The business model is order fulfillment for routine naval maintenance and industrial supply—the company does not compete for multi-year contracts, vehicle positions, or complex integrations. It warehouses and redistributes commodity and specialized hardware items from manufacturers to Navy and Defense facilities, primarily in the Pacific Northwest but with work performed nationwide at customer locations including Seabeck (administrative/warehouse), Portsmouth Virginia, Pearl Harbor, and various naval shipyards. The vendor's customer concentration on a single command (NAVSEA) and the transaction nature of the work create recompete exposure and revenue volatility if NAVSEA procurement patterns shift or consolidate to larger distributors or prime contractors.
