CSC Operating Company LLC

CSC Operating Company LLC, a Houston-based manufacturer of pipeline repair and critical infrastructure solutions, operates exclusively as a prime contractor on full-and-open federal supply contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, competing without set-aside designation across a narrow, specialized product portfolio.

CSC Operating Company LLC is a for-profit limited liability company and manufacturer of goods; the source also identifies the vendor as ClockSpring|NRI. The company manufactures pipe emergency damage repair kits, cloth and metal sealing tapes, and repair kits for pipes and emissions equipment — consumable components that support military operational readiness across the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. The capability portfolio is tightly focused: across 22 recent prime awards totaling $892 thousand in combined potential value, 13 awards center on fabricated pipe and pipe fitting manufacturing (PSC: Hose, Pipe, Tube, Lubrication, and Railing Fittings), and 9 awards address gasket, packing, and sealing device manufacturing (PSC: Packing and Gasket Materials). Representative work includes a $30.6 thousand delivery order in March 2022 for pipe and emissions equipment repair kits, a $27.5 thousand delivery order in October 2023 for pipe repair kits, and a $29.8 thousand delivery order in November 2025 for cloth and metal sealing tape.

Customer concentration is absolute: all 22 awards and the full $892 thousand combined potential value derive from DLA Land and Maritime, making CSC a single-customer vendor with no diversification across other federal agencies. The vendor holds two primary indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime — one valued at $992.8 thousand for pipe emergency damage repair kits running through April 2028, and a second valued at $250 thousand for cloth and metal sealing tape awarded November 2024 running through November 2025. Task orders flow steadily from these vehicles: six delivery orders under the $992.8 thousand IDC (SPE7MX23D0061) total $113 thousand combined potential value, and six orders under a related $138 thousand IDC (SPE7M321D5007) for comparable repair kits. Place of performance splits between Houston, Texas (the vendor's headquarters) and Rocky Hill, Connecticut, with additional DLA depot locations across CONUS and OCONUS.

Activity has grown from two awards in 2021 to nine in 2024, though 2025 shows only two awards to date through mid-November. All contracts are firm-fixed-price delivery orders or purchase orders with ultimate completion dates clustered twelve to twenty months from award. The vendor competes exclusively on full-and-open procurements with no small business set-aside involvement, positioning it as a direct domestic supplier competing on price and availability for critical repair components rather than as a protected-category incumbent.
