Marine Jet Power Inc.

Marine Jet Power Inc., a foreign-owned manufacturer of marine propulsion systems and components headquartered in Blacklick, Ohio, operates primarily as a prime contractor supplying specialized marine parts and propulsion equipment to the federal government through direct purchase orders, with occasional subcontract work on larger platform programs. The company competes predominantly on full-and-open, non-set-aside purchase orders, though recent awards have included total small business set-asides; it does not hold parent contract vehicles or IDIQs itself but receives task orders and purchase orders from DLA's Indefinite Delivery Contracts.

Marine Jet Power's federal portfolio centers on manufacturing and supply of marine jet propulsion components, replacement parts, and technical services. Concrete capability work includes $684,638.95 in feedback units and steering assemblies for the U.S. Coast Guard Long Range Interceptor platform (sole source, August 2026), $226,709.60 in marine parts kits (manifold assemblies, air cleaners, gaskets, hydraulic components) for Coast Guard small boats (total small business set-aside, September 2023), $306,000 in O-ring procurement for DLA Land and Maritime (August 2023), and ongoing supply of replacement parts across engine and propulsion system categories — fiber washers, cylinder heads, clamps, cones, and rotating machinery components. The company also performs technical field services, including a $6,740 award for jet propulsion technician support at Charleston, South Carolina (November 2023).

Customer concentration is extreme and DLA-anchored. The Defense Logistics Agency accounts for 728 of 820 awards (89%) and $6.5 million of the $10.8 million combined potential value across the portfolio. Within DLA, Land and Maritime dominates with 410 awards and $4.5 million combined potential value; DLA Troop Support Hardware (143 awards, $509 thousand) and DLA Aviation (90 awards, $529 thousand) follow. The Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard represents the second-largest customer by potential value — 38 awards worth $1.7 million combined — reflecting Marine Jet Power's role as an OEM parts supplier for Coast Guard waterjet propulsion platforms. Department of Army Materiel Command (11 awards, $1.3 million combined potential value) and DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (85 awards, $988 thousand) round out the top five. The top five customers account for 93% of awards and 84% of combined potential value.

Marine Jet Power sits on five named Indefinite Delivery Contracts managed by DLA Land and Maritime, with a combined nine to six task orders per vehicle: IDC SPM7M109D5X60 (9 task orders, $95 thousand combined potential value), IDC SPM7M109D5B15 (6 task orders, $85 thousand), IDC SPM7M111D5C56 (5 task orders, $66 thousand), IDC SPM7M112D5L58 (4 task orders, $23 thousand), and IDC SPM7M113D5Q49 (4 task orders, $19 thousand). These vehicles do not span across agencies or contracting offices; they are DLA-specific sourcing vehicles. The vendor does not hold or appear on GWACs, agency-wide IDIQs, or GSA Schedules based on the source data.

Award volume has declined materially in recent years. The portfolio peaked at 22 awards in 2022, dropped to 12 in 2023, fell to five in 2024, recovered slightly to eight in 2025, and sits at 11 for 2026 year-to-date. Within the next twenty-four months, four awards with combined potential value of $781 thousand face ultimate completion and recompete exposure — a moderate recompete cliff for a vendor whose annual award count has contracted by roughly 75% from the 2022 baseline.

Marine Jet Power subcontracts minimally. Five sub-awards (1% of the portfolio) appear in the recent data, all tied to larger platform work: waterjet system and hydraulic component packages for Coast Guard vessel programs under Vigor Works LLC (May 2026 and September 2025) and onsite propulsion support and components for the Multimission Surface Vessel (Large) Engineering, Manufacturing, and Development phase under Valkyrie Enterprises, LLC (September and July 2025). The subcontract work reflects Marine Jet Power's role as a specialized systems integrator or component supplier on major shipbuilding and modernization efforts rather than a prime contractor on those programs.

Marine Jet Power's NAICS footprint skews toward specialized manufacturing: Bolt, Nut, Screw, Rivet, and Washer Manufacturing (149 awards), Overhead Traveling Crane and Hoist Manufacturing (138 awards), Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Propulsion Unit and Parts Manufacturing (92 awards), Gasket and Sealing Device Manufacturing (71 awards), and Other Engine Equipment Manufacturing (57 awards). The PSC distribution reflects the same specificity — Deck Machinery (168 awards), Ship and Boat Propulsion Components (118 awards), Packing and Gasket Materials (83 awards), and Nuts and Washers (63 awards). The portfolio shows heavy concentration in commodity marine hardware and propulsion-system consumables, with recurring DLA purchase orders for low-value replacement parts rather than platform-level integration or sustainment contracts.
