North Point Marine & Industrial Inc.

North Point Marine & Industrial Inc., a Portsmouth, New Hampshire-based Subchapter S Corporation, operates as a prime contractor providing maritime vessel maintenance, repair, and preservation services exclusively to the U.S. Coast Guard, competing predominantly under total small business set-asides on NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing). The vendor holds no current federal subcontractor positions and carries neither formal SBA 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, nor other socioeconomic designations beyond small business status; however, its entire prime footprint flows through small-business-set-aside awards.

North Point Marine's customer concentration is extreme and non-diversified. The Coast Guard accounts for 294 of 323 recent awards (91% of the portfolio by count, 98.6% by potential value) and $156.6 million of the vendor's $158.8 million combined potential value. Four additional agencies—Naval Sea Systems Command, Naval Military Sealift Command, NOAA, and the Maritime Administration—together represent fewer than twenty-one awards and less than two million dollars combined potential value. This dependency on a single customer agency and narrow geographic footprint (Portsmouth and Pensacola shipyards, with periodic work at coastal facilities) creates substantial recompete and political risk concentrated in Coast Guard cutter maintenance appropriations.

North Point Marine's service scope is concrete and repetitive. The vendor delivers dockside and dry-dock repairs, depot maintenance, preservation, inspection, testing, and overhaul of Coast Guard Medium Endurance and Sentinel-class cutters, including tank cleaning and inspection, electrical system load testing, fuel flow meter calibration, deck plating and flight-deck renewal, anchor windlass overhaul, bilge and fire pump replacement, and welding and structural repairs. Representative recent prime awards include a $997,264 August 2026 definitive contract for USCGC MOHAWK dockside and shipyard repair services (firm fixed-price, total small business set-aside), a $781,205 July 2026 contract for USCGC DILIGENCE dockside repairs in Pensacola, and a $795,328 April 2026 contract for USCGC FORWARD maintenance encompassing sixteen distinct maintenance and repair tasks. The vendor also holds a multi-award Coast Guard Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $11.754 million through February 2028 for deck preservation and deck covering renewal services, from which 87 task orders have been issued to date at $21 million combined potential value.

Activity has remained relatively stable in recent years—nine awards in 2022, sixteen in 2023, thirteen in 2024, seventeen in 2025, and ten in 2026 (through mid-August)—with combined potential value across all awards at $158.8 million and combined obligated dollars at $75.3 million (47% of potential value). Only three awards face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $1.8 million), meaning recompete exposure is modest in the near term but the broader portfolio renewal pipeline depends on Coast Guard budget continuity. Most work is awarded as firm fixed-price purchase orders and definitive contracts with compressed performance windows (fourteen to forty-five days), consistent with routine cutter-maintenance tasking rather than major shipyard overhauls.

SCI-reported invoicing of $3.1 million across FY2022–FY2024 (a partial federal-services-contract view) shows the vendor mobilized roughly 4.0 FTEs in FY2022 and 6.2 FTEs in FY2024, with government-paid median hourly rates around $136/hr and a ninety-percentile ceiling of $184/hr. The SCI dataset carries only four records and does not capture the bulk of North Point Marine's federal revenue (which flows through fixed-price and time-and-materials ship repair contracts outside the SCI reporting threshold); the FTE and rate figures represent a narrow slice of activity. The vendor performs all delivery internally—zero subcontractor hour share across SCI-reportable prime contracts—and maintains no named subcontractor relationships in the source record, positioning itself as a self-contained service provider rather than a teaming-orchestration platform.

North Point Marine operates under two primary vehicle structures: the Coast Guard IDIQ for Dockside Maintenance (87 task orders, $21 million), which anchors most of its work, and an Indefinite Delivery Contract (70Z08023DMECP0002) with seven task orders valued at $1.3 million. Both vehicles are small-business set-asides, and both funnel exclusively into Coast Guard operations. The vendor's asset footprint (Portsmouth and Pensacola facilities) and specialized workforce in cutter-class repair create switching costs for the Coast Guard but also lock North Point Marine into a single-customer dependency that exposes it to service-level disputes, contract consolidation, or recompete loss if the Coast Guard pursues alternative sources or cost-reduction strategies.
