Davison Marine L.l.c

Davison Marine L.L.C., a small disadvantaged business and Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Luling, Louisiana, operates as a prime contractor delivering specialized marine equipment manufacturing and vessel maintenance services to federal maritime agencies. The company competes predominantly under total small business set-asides, which account for the majority of its award footprint across the Coast Guard, Navy, and Army Corps of Engineers.

Davison Marine's capability portfolio centers on watertight maritime hardware fabrication, vessel repair and overhaul, and specialized marine equipment maintenance. Representative work includes a $678,852 contract with the Army Corps of Engineers for main-engine overhaul of the M/V Benyaurd (awarded September 2023), a $278,155 total small business set-aside from USACE Memphis District for sandblasting and painting the MV Mister Pat (August 2022), and a $213,561 Army Corps contract for in-frame major overhaul of two Caterpillar C32 marine generator-set engines for the Mat Sinking Unit (August 2025). Smaller recurring work includes watertight door and hatch manufacturing for Navy vessels (USS Gravely, USS Nitze, USS Gonzalez, USS Arlington, USS Essex), tank and bilge cleaning for Coast Guard cutters, and open-inspect-repair services for marine generators, pumps, and propulsion equipment across the Coast Guard's Medium Endurance and Wave-Class platforms.

Customer concentration skews heavily toward the Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard, which represents 69 of 116 awards (60% of portfolio) valued at $2.8 million combined potential value. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command follows with 24 awards ($644 thousand), while the Army Corps of Engineers and its Vicksburg District component together represent 16 awards ($2 million). This concentration reflects the vendor's specialization in vessel maintenance and marine hardware supply for surface-force operations rather than diversification across civilian agencies. The recompete cliff shows minimal exposure: only four awards with combined potential value of $138 thousand complete in the next twenty-four months.

The vendor operates as a pure prime contractor across all 116 awards (no subcontractor role noted in the source), with zero sub-award relationships reported. The award portfolio spans NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing), 332321 (Metal Window and Door Manufacturing), and 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair and Maintenance), with PSC concentration in marine maintenance, marine hardware, and ship equipment. Activity has grown modestly—21 awards in 2022 to a peak of 33 in 2025—with 2026 showing a partial-year count of 13 awards as of late October. All obligations recorded match potential values, indicating the portfolio represents fully executed, closed, or performing work rather than speculative ceiling amounts. SAM.gov registration has been active since November 2021.
