Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp

Curtiss-Wright Electro-Mechanical Corp Fleet Solutions Division, operating as Curtiss-Wright Fleet Solutions, manufactures and repairs high-pressure air compressors, steam turbine components, pumps, and associated naval mechanical systems as a prime contractor on a portfolio dominated by Navy ship maintenance and overhaul work. The vendor is a child division of Curtiss-Wright Corporation headquartered in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania; Fleet Solutions is based in Chesapeake, Virginia and operates as a for-profit manufacturer competing in full-and-open Navy procurement without set-aside designations.

Fleet Solutions' customer footprint concentrates overwhelmingly on the Department of the Navy. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) accounts for 416 awards ($50.9 million combined potential value), while Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) accounts for 107 awards ($58.1 million combined potential value), together representing 93% of the vendor's recent award count. Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime places a smaller volume (61 awards, $1 million combined potential value). The revenue ranking diverges from volume: NAVSUP anchors the most potential dollars despite fewer awards, reflecting larger-dollar individual awards on compressor unit overhauls and repairs; NAVSEA drives volume with component-level purchase orders but carries lower individual values.

Concrete representative work includes a $2.9 million firm fixed-price definitive contract awarded by NAVSEA in October 2024 to overhaul Main Engine High Pressure Turbines #2, #3, and #4 on a NIMITZ-class aircraft carrier at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard; a $4.87 million NAVSUP purchase order in September 2024 for procurement and repair of 12 compressor units (NSN 7H-4310-015099080-A3) to be completed by September 2025; and a $2.54 million NAVSUP purchase order in November 2024 for repair of 12 rotary compressor units. Work is classified under NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), 333912 (Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing), and related mechanical manufacturing and repair codes; PSC activity centers on compressors, steam turbine components, packing and gasket materials, and steam plant maintenance services.

Fleet Solutions holds three significant Basic Ordering Agreements (BOAs) anchoring its task-order footprint. BOA N0010418GBH01 carries 30 task orders ($16.3 million combined potential value), BOA N0010418GBJ01 carries 22 task orders ($11.8 million combined potential value), and BOA N0010412GA754 carries 3 task orders ($1.9 million combined potential value). The vendor also operates under Indefinite Delivery Contracts N6449820D4028 and N0002421D4114, placing task orders for component repair and engineering support services. These vehicles are NAVSEA and NAVSUP instruments, not government-wide, restricting access to the contractor's availability to Navy-focused primes and Navy buying offices.

The vendor functions as a subcontractor on naval ship overhaul programs executed by Huntington Ingalls Inc., Metro Machine Corp., Marine Hydraulics International LLC, and Electric Boat Corporation. Recent sub-award activity dated October 2024 through December 2025 shows Curtiss-Wright providing vendor support, component overhaul labor and materials, and on-site engineering oversight to support CVN 75 Refueling and Complex Overhaul (RCOH) advance planning and execution, USS NEW YORK (LPD-21) restricted availability air compressor overhaul, USS MESA VERDE selective restricted availability, and USS COLUMBUS (SSN 762) engineered overhaul. Subcontract scope emphasizes main feed pump turbine restoration, low-pressure and medium-pressure air compressor overhaul, and Main Engine generator component provisioning and refurbishment.

Activity shows marked growth in 2024 (306 awards) against a stable 54–56 annual volume in 2022–2023, followed by a 2025 decline (68 awards) and sparse 2026 activity to date (18 awards through March). Sixteen awards with ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months carry $9.6 million in combined potential value, representing moderate recompete exposure. The vendor's 48% prime / 52% subcontractor split reflects a business model anchored to Navy prime contracts for component delivery and repair, with subcontract work concentrated on ship maintenance programs where Curtiss-Wright provides OEM expertise and logistics support. Award data spanning 2012 to present demonstrates continuous engagement with NAVSEA and NAVSUP across naval fleet maintenance, with no identified teaming partnerships beyond direct prime-to-prime relationships with shipyards and major ship support integrators.
