Linamen Investment Company, LLC

Linamen Investment Company, LLC, doing business as Lin TEC Fire Solutions, is a self-certified small disadvantaged business providing fire suppression system inspection, certification, and maintenance services to the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security as a prime contractor on 91% of its recent awards. The company operates out of Carlsbad, California, with headquarters referenced in historical awards as Cornelius, North Carolina, and competes predominantly under total small business set-asides across all contract vehicles.

Lin TEC Fire Solutions' capability portfolio centers on maritime fire safety — annual inspection and certification of fixed fire suppression systems, portable fire extinguishers, and fire control panels aboard Logistics Support Vessels and other naval assets, all performed in compliance with Code of Federal Regulations Title 46 maritime standards. The company also handles FM-200 fixed fire suppression system inspection and testing, six-year fire extinguisher maintenance cycles, and replacement of failed fire suppression systems on military tour boats. Representative work includes a $249,999.99 single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Department of the Army running through February 27, 2029, covering fire suppression services at Honolulu, Hawaii; a $81,160.58 purchase order from Navy Installations Command at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam with a completion date of May 31, 2030; and a $20,767.73 Navy Installations Command purchase order for annual marine fire suppression certification with completion through May 31, 2025. Recent activity includes a $4,175 Coast Guard purchase order for FM-200 system inspection aboard the CGC WILLIAM HART (completed July 31, 2026) and multiple task orders under the Army BPA for individual Logistics Support Vessel annual certifications ranging from $9,562.50 to $11,675.35 each.

Customer concentration is tight and geographically clustered. The Department of the Army and Navy Installations Command account for 100% of awards by count and value, with the Army holding $260 thousand in combined potential value (primarily the parent $249,999.99 BPA and its task orders) and Navy Installations Command holding $114 thousand across four awards. Army Pacific Command issued four task orders totaling $44 thousand against the parent BPA, and the Coast Guard represents a single $4 thousand order. The vendor places task orders under the Blanket Purchase Agreement W912CN24A0002 (five task orders, $53 thousand combined potential value) and has one additional task order under a Design-Build/Design-Bid-Build Hawaii state vehicle.

Award activity has grown from one in 2023 to five in 2024, then moderated to three in 2025 and two in 2026. The combined potential value across all awards stands at $421 thousand, though combined obligated dollars reach $825 thousand (196% of potential value), indicating that multiple task orders and purchase orders have been exercised and paid beyond their individual ceiling values. In its single subcontract role, Lin TEC Fire Solutions performed fire suppression system replacement and HVAC work under Dawson Technical, Inc., a prime on Department of the Navy contract N62478-22-D-4001 at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam, awarded February 20, 2024.
