Pacific Maritime Group Inc.

Pacific Maritime Group Inc., doing business as Pacific Tugboat Service, operates as a San Diego-based maritime transportation and vessel-support contractor serving the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor (45% of total awards) and as a subcontractor to major defense primes (55% of awards). Pacific Maritime Group is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation with a named subsidiary, Pacific Dredge and Construction, LLC. The company competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides on its prime work, though a material portion of full-and-open awards also flows to the company. Recent prime and sub activity spans barge transportation, crew-boat and tugboat rental, vessel affreightment, clump-and-dump target support, and maritime training logistics.

Pacific Maritime Group's customer footprint is heavily Navy-concentrated. The top five Navy customers account for roughly 80% of recent awards by count, led by Naval Sea Systems Command (125 awards, $63.3 million combined potential value), Naval Supply Systems Command (9 awards, $31.9 million), and Military Sealift Command (97 awards, $28.5 million). The rankings by award count diverge sharply from potential-value rankings—Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center and Naval Facilities Engineering Command carry large award counts but minimal dollar value, while Naval Sea Systems Command and Naval Supply Systems Command anchor the bulk of the dollars. This split reflects a mix of recurring small task orders against large standing IDVs and occasional high-value delivery orders for barge and cargo transport.

The vendor's prime-contract vehicle footprint is anchored by a $475 thousand GSA Federal Supply Schedule (Multiple Award Schedule) running through July 2031, under which vessel rental, barge transportation, crew transport, target support, and husbanding services are offered nationwide. Four labor categories span hourly rates from $45.39 (basic labor) to $116.69 (project management overtime), all at High School Equivalent education with one year of experience required and no security clearances offered. Pacific Maritime Group holds multiple Navy prime IDVs including a $2.5 million Air Force single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement for Davis-Monthan Air Force Base pararescue maritime training through April 2030, a $750 thousand single-award Air Force indefinite-delivery contract for crew boats and tugboat services through April 2025 (now expired or expiring), an $18.7 million multiple-award Naval Supply Systems Command contract for San Clemente Island barge transportation running through September 2034, and a $1 million single-award U.S. Special Operations Command indefinite-delivery contract for clump-and-dump concrete target support and removal. The vendor also holds a zero-dollar-ceiling Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) contingency-services contract with the Air Force, awarded October 2024, with a base period through September 2029 and two option periods extending performance through 2034. Recent task orders under these vehicles include a $3.88 million Naval Supply Systems Command delivery order for weekly potable-water and dry-cargo affreightment to San Clemente Island (October 2025 through September 2026, Total Small Business set-aside), a $1.87 million San Clemente Island barge-transportation delivery order (October 2024, Total Small Business), and a $209 thousand Air Combat Command delivery order for crew boats and tugboat services supporting Air Force Special Warfare maritime training (September 2024). A recurring pattern of small pararescue maritime-training orders at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base runs $30 thousand to $73 thousand per BPA call.

The vendor operates predominantly as a subcontractor on naval shipyard work. The top named sub primes are BAE Systems Maritime Solutions San Diego Inc. (dozens of sub awards for ship-maintenance availability direct subcontract costs across LCS-class, LPD-class, and destroyer platforms including USS Essex, USS Green Bay, USS Fitzgerald, and USS Somerset), National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (multiple sub awards for detail design and construction, repair rentals, and pool reallocation on T-AO tanker new construction and expeditionary-sea-base programs), and Systems Application & Technologies Inc. (recurring target-operations and maintenance sub awards for contract vessels, tugs, and barge support). Phoenix International Holdings, Inc., Marine Ventures International, Inc., Oceanetics Inc., Epsilon Systems Solutions Inc., and Manson Construction Co. round out the named-prime landscape. Subcontract work is predominantly vessel rental, barge and tugboat services, and crane-barge support during ship availabilities and new construction.

Service Contract Inventory data captures minimal SCI-reportable federal service-contract activity—only 2 SCI records across FY2024–FY2025, all in a subcontractor role, equating to 0.3 FTEs in FY2024 and 1.0 FTEs in FY2025. SCI represents a partial and incomplete view of the vendor's federal services footprint, as most of Pacific Maritime Group's work is transactional vessel rental and transportation rather than labor-hour-based services. Award activity has been steady to declining: 92 awards in 2022, 101 in 2023, 86 in 2024, 76 in 2025, and 10 to date in 2026 (reflecting the early-calendar snapshot). Approximately 286 prime awards and 348 sub awards over the source period reflect a hybrid delivery model balancing direct Navy and DoD customer relationships against deep integration into major defense prime supply chains on shipyard and maintenance work. The top NAICS codes are Aircraft Manufacturing (209 awards), Ship Building and Repairing (168 awards), and Navigational Services to Shipping (57 awards), reflecting both the shipyard subcontract exposure and direct maritime support roles.
