Etajima Shipbuilding Co., LTD.

Etajima Shipbuilding Co., LTD., Etajima Zosensho,K.k Division, is a for-profit manufacturer based in Hiroshima, Japan, that has been registered in the System for Award Management since February 2006. The company specializes in providing comprehensive shipbuilding, maintenance, repair, and logistics support services to U.S. military agencies. Etajima Shipbuilding has established itself as a reliable provider of maritime vessel services, particularly for the Indo-Pacific region, offering expertise in engine repairs, vessel overhauls, dry docking, and infrastructure maintenance at Japanese ports including Kure and Akizuki.

Etajima Shipbuilding has received fourteen prime federal contract awards from the Department of the Army and maintains an active Basic Ordering Agreement with the Department of the Navy, demonstrating a consistent and expanding relationship with U.S. military agencies. The company's contract work has primarily focused on the maintenance, repair, and delivery of Army logistics support vessels, specifically Landing Craft Mechanized (LCM) vessels LCM-8529 and LCM-8548. Services provided under these contracts have included labor and supply services for vessel maintenance and repair, dry-dock maintenance, engine injector repairs, port main engine overhauls, and vessel delivery operations. Additionally, Etajima Shipbuilding has performed inspection and on-site repair services for U.S. Army pier barges and gangways at Kure Port and Akizuki Port in Hiroshima, Japan. All contract awards have been firm fixed-price delivery orders or purchase orders with no set-aside designations, with individual contract values ranging from $32,559.09 to $169,545.48. The most recent Army contract awards, issued in July 2025, are valued at $144,388.05 each and are scheduled for completion by July 31, 2026, indicating ongoing engagement with the vendor for critical vessel maintenance operations.

Etajima Shipbuilding holds a single-award Basic Ordering Agreement with the U.S. Department of the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command, awarded in September 2023 with an ultimate completion date of September 15, 2028. This indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract provides the Navy with a flexible contracting vehicle to place task orders for an unspecified range of shipbuilding, repair, and maintenance products and services as operational requirements dictate. The BOA carries no set-aside designation and maintains an open-ended ceiling value, allowing the Navy to leverage Etajima Shipbuilding's established capabilities in maritime vessel support without pre-defined scope limitations. This agreement represents a significant expansion of the vendor's federal contracting portfolio beyond its existing Army relationships and positions Etajima Shipbuilding as a strategic partner for Navy maritime operations in the Pacific region through 2028.
