Ems Industrial Inc.

Ems Industrial Inc., operating under the trade name Electric Motor Service, is a small business Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Chesapeake, Virginia, that has been registered in the System for Award Management since December 2001. The company specializes in electrical and mechanical services for the federal government, particularly supporting U.S. Navy and Military Sealift Command (MSC) operations. Ems Industrial brings substantial expertise in generator rebuilds, electric motor repairs, equipment overhauls, and comprehensive maintenance services essential to sustaining the operational readiness of naval vessels and maritime support infrastructure.

Ems Industrial has executed a diverse portfolio of federal contract work across multiple naval vessels and support systems through both prime and subcontract awards. As a prime contractor, the company has delivered services including SSDG alternator overhauls, electric motor reconditioning, steering gear hydraulic pump overhauls, winch motor repairs, feed pump motor supply, air compressor repairs, and comprehensive vessel maintenance programs. Notable prime contract recipients have been the Military Sealift Command and US Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic Fleet), with specific work performed on vessels including USNS Pecos, USNS Walter Diehl, USNS Arctic, USNS Patuxent, USNS Carson City, USNS Supply, USNS Harvey Milk, USNS Robert E. Peary, and USNS Peary. Prime contract awards have ranged from $3,500 minimum guarantees to $1.94 million for comprehensive overhaul programs, with most delivery orders structured as firm fixed-price arrangements. Additionally, Ems Industrial has served as a subcontractor to major defense firms including BAE Systems Norfolk Ship Repair Inc., Metro Machine Corp., East Coast Repair & Fabrication LLC, and Amentum Technology Inc., providing direct subcontract costs and specialized repair services. The majority of Ems Industrial's prime awards have carried no individual set-aside designations at the delivery order level, though several have been designated as total small business set-asides, and all fall under parent vehicles set aside for small business participation.

Ems Industrial currently holds two significant Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity contracts with the Military Sealift Command. The primary vehicle is the East Coast General Ship Repair IDIQ, a $140 million multiple-award contract established in November 2023 with an ordering period extending through September 2028, designated as a total small business set-aside. Under this contract, Ems Industrial competes for task orders alongside other qualified small businesses to provide generator rebuilds, electric motor repairs, equipment overhauls, capstan maintenance, and comprehensive mechanical and electrical equipment services to support MSC's East Coast fleet operations. The second contract is an Electrical Services MAC IDIQ valued at $44.6 million, awarded in June 2025 for a five-year ordering period through June 2030, also set aside for 100% small business participation. This newer vehicle provides turn-key electrical services including inspection, maintenance, repair, service, modification, and installation of electrical power generating systems, power distribution equipment, interior communications systems, automation, control, and monitoring systems on MSC vessels. The Electrical Services contract requires Ems Industrial to provide OEM-certified parts and service technicians, with work performed primarily on the U.S. East Coast. Both IDVs enable Ems Industrial to support critical naval operations and fleet readiness through a continuous stream of delivery orders and task orders from the Military Sealift Command.
