Continental Maritime of San Diego, LLC, a subsidiary of Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc., is a major naval ship maintenance and repair contractor specializing in comprehensive maintenance, repair, and modernization services for U.S. Navy vessels homeported in San Diego, California. The company operates as a large business concern and has established itself as a strategic partner to the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) through its extensive portfolio of federal contract awards and indefinite delivery contracts. Continental Maritime provides critical fleet readiness support across multiple vessel classes, including guided-missile destroyers, amphibious assault ships, amphibious transport dock ships, and littoral combat ships, positioning itself as a primary performer of complex naval platform maintenance services.

Continental Maritime has demonstrated substantial federal contracting activity through prime contract awards spanning multiple fiscal years, with recent major awards including a $112.67 million definitive contract for Fiscal Year 2026 Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) maintenance on the USS Pearl Harbor (LSD 52), a $79.3 million contract for FY25 DSRA work on the USS Russell, and a $29.0 million delivery order for Selected Restricted Availability maintenance on the USS Curtis Wilbur (DDG-54). The contractor has consistently received firm fixed-price delivery orders and definitive contracts from Naval Sea Systems Command for maintenance availabilities including Docking Maintenance Periods (DMP), Selected Restricted Availability (SRA), Continuous Maintenance Availability (CMAV), and Docking Selected Restricted Availability (DSRA) services. Historical awards demonstrate Continental Maritime's role across vessels including USS Tripoli (LHA-7), USS Portland (LPD-27), USS Chafee, USS Momsen, USS Sterett (DDG-104), USS Stethem (DDG-63), USS O'Kane (DDG-77), USS Halsey (DDG-97), USS Somerset (LPD-25), and USS Montgomery (LCS 8), with work scopes encompassing structural welding, cable installation, piping, electrical systems repairs, propulsion plant upgrades, and combat system modernization. All prime awards have been uncompensated for small business set-asides, reflecting the contractor's status as a large business. Continental Maritime also serves as a subcontractor to prime contractors including National Steel and Shipbuilding Company and HII Fleet Support Group LLC, providing repair sub-contracts and materials to support maintenance operations on vessels such as USS West Virginia, USNS Cesar Chavez, USS Tucson, and USS Russell.

Continental Maritime holds four active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with Naval Sea Systems Command. The largest is a $1.676 billion IDC for maintenance, repair, and modernization of Littoral Combat Ships (LCS) homeported in San Diego, California, extending through May 22, 2030, which encompasses preventative and planned maintenance, corrosion control, continuous and emergent maintenance, Chief of Naval Operations availabilities, fly away team support, and engineering services. Three additional IDCs totaling approximately $1.927 billion address complex and non-complex maintenance on surface combatant and amphibious class ships in the San Diego area through November 2026, including one $654.8 million contract for surface combatant availability services, one $538.5 million contract for amphibious class ship services, and one $733.7 million contract for availability, configuration management, and repair services for surface ships homeported or visiting ports in the continental United States, which became effective August 4, 2021, with an ordering period extending through July 31, 2025. These IDC vehicles are multiple-award contracts with no small business set-asides and serve as the parent vehicles for numerous delivery orders issued across fiscal years 2021 through 2026. The scope of work under these IDCs includes both planned maintenance availabilities and emergent maintenance requirements, configuration management, engineering support, and logistics services performed in San Diego, California, with performance potentially extending to locations outside the continental United States.
