About the company
E.T. Gresham Company, Inc., doing business as E T Gresham Crane & Rigging, provides crane rental, lifting and rigging services, and steel fabrication to federal agencies as a prime contractor (81% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to larger defense primes. The company is a small business based in Norfolk, Virginia, with over 105 years of operating history in construction management and specialized crane services across Virginia and North Carolina.
The vendor's customer footprint centers on maritime and defense operations. The top five funding agencies account for 64% of recent prime awards by count and 82% by combined potential value. The U.S. Coast Guard dominates the relationship, holding 11 prime awards for crane services totaling $36 thousand in combined potential value, driven by small-business set-aside purchase orders for facility and asset operations in the Portsmouth area. The United States Special Operations Command, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Naval Sea Systems Command, and the Military Sealift Command round out the active customer set. The vendor's work splits between maintenance and repair of ship and marine equipment (6 awards), defense research and development services (3 awards), and technical representative services for materials handling equipment (3 awards), with secondary exposure to airframe structural components and facilities operations support. NAICS concentration runs across ship building and repairing (9 awards), specialty trade contracting (7 awards), and machinery rental and leasing (4 awards).
E.T. Gresham places task orders under four named indefinite delivery contracts, led by Navy Surface Combatant and Amphibious Class Ships maintenance frameworks. Recent prime work includes a $5.3 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from the Coast Guard awarded August 6, 2025, for crane service in Portsmouth set aside for total small business participation, and a $5.5 thousand ratification of an unauthorized commitment from NOAA for crane services provided to the Uncrewed Systems Operations Center at Marine Operations Center-Atlantic in Norfolk, completed February 7, 2025.
Award activity shows volatility — two awards in 2021, one in 2023, five in 2024, three in 2025, and one in 2026 — with no clear trajectory of growth. The vendor operates predominantly as a subcontractor to Metro Machine Corp. on U.S. Navy ship repair and maintenance programs including USS Truman (CVN 75), USS Eisenhower (CVN 69), USS Bush (CVN 77), and USS Arlington (LPD-24), and to Southeast Cherokee Construction on structural steel and decking work for F-22 weather shelters at Joint Base Langley-Eustis. The SCI dataset shows no FTE activity in the covered period (FY2022), indicating the vendor's federal revenue derives from goods (crane equipment rental and steel fabrication products) and micro-purchases rather than service contracts above the SCI reporting threshold.
