About the company
Flame-Spray, Inc., a woman-owned small business based in San Diego, California, delivers thermal spray coating and advanced surface modification services to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders, with sporadic sub-award work in aerospace propulsion. The company operates across NAICS 332812 (Metal Coating, Engraving, and Allied Services) and related repair-and-maintenance categories, competing in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designation on the majority of its prime work, though several Naval Sea Systems Command awards carry Total Small Business set-aside markings.
Flame-Spray's customer base concentrates almost entirely on naval programs. The Department of the Navy accounts for the vast majority of recent awards—39 awards across Navy components, with Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) leading at 21 awards and $246 thousand combined potential value, followed by Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) at 7 awards and $144 thousand. The top five customer entities cover 73% of the award count and represent 100% of the combined potential value across all active awards. Work is performed primarily at Naval Base Kitsap in Bremerton, Washington (for NAVSEA shipyard and submarine maintenance), San Diego, California (corporate headquarters and performance site), and to a minor extent at other Navy installations. Representative prime work includes multiple E2 beam sling repair and service orders from NAVAIR valued in the $12 thousand to $13.5 thousand range (awarded December 2024 through March 2026), thermal spray services for the SSBN 731 USS Alabama submarine from NAVSEA ($19.5 thousand, June 2022), and thermal spray for sockets and plunger components across NAVSEA contracts ($4 thousand to $8 thousand each, 2022–2023).
Activity has remained low and flat—two to four awards per year over the past five years, with only one award recorded in 2026 year-to-date. Combined potential value across all 96 awards is $518 thousand, but combined dollars obligated significantly exceeds this figure at $4 million, indicating that invoiced work has substantially outpaced the stated ceiling values—a pattern consistent with small, recurring purchase orders that run over extended performance periods. The vendor carries a single sub-award relationship: a vacuum-bag plasma coating engagement with Aerojet Rocketdyne in support of the RS-25 engine production restart for NASA's Space Launch System (awarded August 2025). Parent IDICs include multiple Navy-issued indefinite-delivery contracts—N0024481C3536, N0014083C3507, N0014084C4954, and N0061285CT036—each supporting a small number of task orders. Flame-Spray's capability portfolio is narrowly focused on thermal spray deposition, specialized surface coatings, and coating repairs for naval components, submarine materials, and aerospace propulsion systems, with no evidence of broader manufacturing, IT, or logistics service offerings.
