About the company
Paradise Cay Publications, Inc., Division Paradisecay Publications, Inc., is an SBA HUBZone-certified small business based in Blue Lake, California, that publishes and distributes maritime reference books, navigation charts, and related printed materials to federal agencies as a prime contractor through the GSA Multiple Award Schedule. The vendor operates as a for-profit Subchapter S corporation and manufacturer of goods; it competes full-and-open on the Multiple Award Schedule with no set-aside designation across its recent prime awards.
The vendor's federal footprint centers narrowly on maritime and naval reference publications. Paradise Cay holds a seat on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (29 task orders, $66 thousand combined potential value), where it has been the sole vehicle for federal sales across the past five years. Customer concentration sits with the GSA Federal Acquisition Service, which accounts for 21 awards and $501 thousand in combined potential value (78% of all recent awards), with secondary customers in Naval Sea Systems Command, the U.S. Coast Guard, and the Naval Education and Training Command. Representative awards include a $25,865 delivery order from the Coast Guard for reference books to support the National Maritime Center and Regional Examination Centers (May 2023), a $12,303 delivery order from the Coast Guard for maritime examination support materials (April 2023), and a $24,543 delivery order from Naval Education and Training Command for fleet tactics and naval operations curriculum (September 2022). More recent orders in 2024–2026 target the same set of titles—Rules of the Road, Navigation Rules & Regulations Handbooks, pilot charts, sight reduction tables, and naval shiphandling guides—in smaller unit quantities ($44–$175 per delivery order).
Activity has grown from 2 awards in 2022 to 11 in 2025, with 7 awards in 2026 to date. Combined potential value across all thirty-six prime awards is $645 thousand, with only $145 thousand obligated (22% of potential value), reflecting the vendor's characteristic small order size and the large backlog of unfilled delivery orders. Paradise Cay maintains one labor category on the GSA Schedule—Graphic Design and Editing at $60.00 per hour for bachelor's-degree-holders with eight years of experience and no security clearance requirement. The vendor's catalog footprint is concentrated in NAICS 511130 (Book Publishers) and PSC Books and Pamphlets, with subordinate activity in printing and wholesale distribution. As a prime-only vendor (100% of awards), Paradise Cay does not subcontract federal work. The vendor faces no significant recompete exposure within twenty-four months; most awards carry small unit values and short performance windows, limiting the dollar value at risk relative to the cumulative pipeline.
