Albatrosses Global Shipping Services L.l.c

Albatrosses Global Shipping Services L.L.C., a Dubai-based for-profit limited liability company, operates as a prime contractor providing stevedoring, terminal services, and maritime husbanding support to the Department of Defense and the U.S. Coast Guard, competing exclusively under full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations.

The vendor's federal footprint is heavily concentrated in two parent vehicles. Albatrosses holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $7.412 million with the Department of Defense's Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) for stevedoring and related terminal services in the United Arab Emirates, awarded August 2023 and valid through August 2028. Under this vehicle, SDDC has issued twenty-two delivery orders totaling $2.1 million in combined potential value, with individual order values ranging from $2,073.75 to $512,420.16 for cargo handling, vessel support, utilities management, and port logistics coordination. Albatrosses also holds a position on the Department of the Navy's $571 million multiple-award Global Husbanding Support Services IDIQ (awarded August 2022, valid through October 2030), which enables worldwide logistics support for naval vessel port visits across Africa, Europe, Central Asia, the Americas, and the Indo-Pacific. Fifteen delivery orders under Global Husbanding totaling $286 thousand in combined potential value have been issued to date for husbanding services—including charter and hire functions, provisions, waste removal, force protection, communications, and transportation support—at strategic ports in Djibouti, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Guam, and Italy. Representative Global Husbanding task orders include $59,393.43 for husbanding services supporting USS Mason at Djibouti and $47,951.42 for port visit support for USS Hershel Woody Williams at Djibouti.

Customer concentration is extreme and tilted by vehicle ceiling rather than execution volume. The Department of the Navy's Pacific Fleet Forces accounts for 100% of combined potential value ($571 million) through its sole position on the Global Husbanding Services IDIQ, despite representing only 3 awards by count (7.7% of the portfolio). The Department of the Army's SDDC dominates award frequency with 23 delivery orders (59% of all awards), but carries only $9.5 million in combined potential value (1.6% of the portfolio total). Five distinct customer agencies have placed orders: SDDC, Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic), Military Sealift Command, Pacific Fleet Forces, and the U.S. Coast Guard. Activity has been consistent year over year—six awards in 2022, twelve in 2023, twelve in 2024, eight in 2025, and one in 2026—with the vast majority of orders valued under $500 thousand. Combined dollars obligated across the entire portfolio total $2.3 million against $580.8 million in potential value, indicating that most awards remain unexecuted or lightly drawn. The vendor executes all work directly as prime contractor with no documented subcontractors and no sub-award activity in the source record. All awards have been issued through full-and-open competition without set-aside designation. Place of performance spans the Middle East and Indo-Pacific regions, with work concentrated in the UAE, Djibouti, Oman, and Guam.
