Crowley Marine Services, Inc.

Crowley Marine Services, Inc., headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, operates as a prime contractor delivering tugboat operations, harbor assistance, vessel charter, and maritime logistics services to federal agencies, competing exclusively in the full-and-open marketplace with no set-aside designations across its federal footprint. The company is a for-profit corporate entity and a division of Crowley Maritime Corporation; it has accumulated 465 prime federal awards totaling $487.6 million in combined potential value, with $220 million obligated to date, across twenty-two customer agencies.

The vendor's concrete capability portfolio centers on call-out tug services for vessel maneuvering and mooring operations, harbor assistance for arriving and departing vessels, and barge movements. Representative prime work includes a $100,000 delivery order from Navy Installations Command (April 2026) for call-out tugboat services in Puget Sound, a $12,446.26 purchase order from the Coast Guard (December 2025) for expedited tug services to support hickory mooring operations at San Diego Pier, a $51,552 delivery order from U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces (October 2025) for call-out tug services supporting MOB-S and VBSS certification exercises in San Diego, and a $142,554 delivery order from Navy Installations Command (April 2025) for call-out tugboat services in Puget Sound. The vendor also received a $500,000 cooperative agreement from the Maritime Administration to support design and demonstration of a hybrid dredge and electric assist tug, demonstrating engagement in sustainable maritime innovation.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted to the Department of the Navy, which accounts for 55 awards carrying $250 million combined potential value—roughly 51% of the vendor's total dollar portfolio—a figure that dominates the top-customers-by-potential-value ranking. The Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard ranks second with 72 awards and $50.7 million combined potential value, while the Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command (62 awards, $22.2 million), Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command (58 awards, $6.1 million), and Department of Transportation Maritime Administration (99 awards, $1 million) round out the top five. The top five customer agencies collectively account for 74% of all awards. The vendor holds two single-award indefinite delivery contracts with the Navy's Military Sealift Command, each valued at $4.125 million through March 31, 2028, for call-out tug services in Puget Sound and San Diego respectively. A third vehicle, a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Maritime Administration effective July 7, 2025, carries a $1 million ceiling for Suisun Bay Reserve Fleet tug services in Benicia, California through July 6, 2030. The vendor also holds a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the U.S. Air Force for Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) Contingency Services (October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2034) with a zero-dollar ceiling at the IDV level, representing potential worldwide contingency sealift support. The two largest parent vehicles by task-order count are Indefinite Delivery Contract N0002498D4046 (57 task orders) and Indefinite Delivery Contract N0002403D4205 (41 task orders, $256.5 million combined potential value).

Award activity has remained relatively flat over the past five years (4 awards in 2022, 9 in 2023, 8 in 2024, 9 in 2025, 1 in 2026 to date), with only one award scheduled to complete within the next twenty-four months—a $100,000 delivery order due March 31, 2027—suggesting minimal recompete exposure in the near term. The vendor's federal footprint is entirely prime work: 465 prime awards and zero subcontract awards, indicating a direct-customer posture with no identified sub-engagement strategy. The top NAICS categories are 488320 (Navigational Services to Shipping; 105 awards), 561210 (Facilities Support Services; 42 awards), and 488310 (Port and Harbor Operations; 35 awards), with PSC concentration in marine charter, vessel towing, salvage, and fuel logistics—a profile consistent with the vendor's maritime transportation and logistics mission.
