About the company
Alabama Shipyard LLC, doing business as Epic Companies, operates as a prime contractor delivering non-nuclear ship repair, overhaul, and drydocking services to the Department of the Navy's Military Sealift Command under total small business set-asides. The Mobile, Alabama–based sole proprietorship and limited liability company competes exclusively under small business set-asides across its federal footprint, with 31 of 34 awards (93% of combined potential value) flowing through Military Sealift Command as definitive contracts for maintenance, repair, alteration, and availability services on non-combatant support vessels.
Alabama Shipyard's customer concentration is extreme and deliberate. Military Sealift Command accounts for 29 of 34 awards totaling $566.4 million in combined potential value — 93% of the vendor's entire federal footprint. The remaining volume splits across the Army Corps of Engineers (two awards: $40.9 million for U.S. Hopper Dredge Wheeler drydocking and repairs, and $1.3 million for emergency drydock services), the Maritime Administration (two federal infrastructure grants), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (one port security grant). Recent MSC work exemplifies the vendor's scope: a $30.7 million definitive contract (February 2026) for lay berth and ship repair on USNS Robert E. Simanek (ESB 7) under total small business set-aside; a $22.96 million contract (July 2025) for mid-term availability and dry-docking on USNS Mercy; a $40.9 million regular overhaul and dry-docking contract (August 2024) on USNS Comfort; and a $31.3 million regular overhaul and dry-docking contract (June 2023) on USNS Sacagawea. Work is performed at Alabama Shipyard's facility in Mobile, Alabama.
Activity has grown modestly over the past five years — from four awards in 2022 to seven in 2023, five in 2024, and seven in 2025 — with five awards in 2026 year to date. Three awards totaling $70.7 million in combined potential value face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete exposure. The vendor operates no parent contract vehicles; every award is a standalone definitive contract or grant. The Maritime Administration awarded a $718 thousand Project Grant (July 2023, CFDA 20.814, Assistance to Small Shipyards program) to fund purchase of air compressor systems and fire suppression pumps, and FEMA issued a port security grant on September 8, 2022. Alabama Shipyard operates entirely as a prime contractor (100% of awards) with no subcontract footprint. The vendor's federal work concentrates under NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing) and PSC J998 (Non-Nuclear Ship Repair—East), reflecting its specialized capability in non-nuclear military vessel maintenance and overhaul for the Navy's sealift fleet.
