As a prime contractor, Kapex Manufacturing has been awarded several federal contracts from the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) to support shipbuilding and maintenance programs. These awards, typically designated as total small business set-asides, have included the delivery of items such as seals, bearings, dies, tumblers, support mandrels, casting toolings, and firing plugs. For instance, in May 2024, Kapex was awarded a $35,397 firm fixed-price purchase order to provide a complete set of seals and bearings, with an ultimate completion date of August 2, 2024. In its role as a subcontractor, Kapex has supported contracts held by Eastern Research Group Inc., providing engineering services and prototype parts production. These subcontract tasks have encompassed performing site visits, developing technical approaches for mixer repairs, conducting equipment machining, analyzing and updating press die bodies, and producing AutoCAD drawings and models for die designs.

Kapex Manufacturing holds multiple federal contract Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDVs), showcasing its ability to secure long-term contractual relationships with defense agencies. In January 2024, the company was awarded a multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) by the U.S. Army Research, Development, and Engineering Command (RDECOM) for process equipment maintenance services. This BPA has a substantial ceiling value of $7.5 million and an ultimate completion date of January 10, 2029, allowing for a wide range of potential task orders related to equipment maintenance.
