About the company
Rapid Prep, LLC, a North Kingstown, Rhode Island-based limited liability company, rents and sells specialized industrial sandblasting and dust-collection equipment to the Department of the Navy as a prime contractor (69% of recent awards) under total small business set-asides. The company operates primarily on purchase orders for equipment rentals supporting naval shipyard operations and submarine base maintenance, with recurring work under Naval Sea Systems Command and emerging subcontract engagement with Electric Boat Corporation and Huntington Ingalls on submarine and carrier construction programs.
Rapid Prep's customer footprint is heavily concentrated within the Navy. Ninety-seven percent of the 99 total awards (both prime and sub) fund Naval Sea Systems Command programs, with 72 prime awards valued at $7.1 million in combined potential value anchoring the portfolio. Additional Navy customers include the United States Pacific Fleet Forces (four awards, $347 thousand), Naval Supply Systems Command (two awards, $173 thousand), and Naval Facilities Engineering Command and Military Sealift Command (one award each). The Department of Energy Office of Environmental Management accounts for a single sub-award. This concentration reflects Rapid Prep's specialization: across its award history, 52 awards fall under NAICS 5359 (Other Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing), with supporting work in ship building and repairing (24 awards) and air purification equipment manufacturing (5 awards).
Recent prime activity centers on equipment rental purchase orders for naval maintenance. Representative contracts include a $285,920 definitive contract awarded August 12, 2025, for rental of a temporary abrasive blasting package (dual dust collectors, dual vacuum recovery units, 4-pot recycle system, and 35 cubic foot blast recovery) at Naval Submarine Base New London with delivery, assembly, commissioning, and personnel training included; a $121,200 purchase order from September 15, 2023, for rental of two 150-horsepower electric industrial vacuum loaders at Norfolk Naval Shipyard; and a $118,140 lease purchase order from July 2, 2026, for dust collection and blast recovery systems at Naval Base Point Loma in San Diego. Contracts are firm fixed-price with performance specifications requiring equipment manufacture within ten years and capability to operate across extreme temperature ranges from -10 to +110 degrees Fahrenheit.
In its subcontractor role, Rapid Prep supplies blast equipment and vacuum excavation rentals to Electric Boat Corporation on submarine and ship alteration work (20 modifications and point changes spanning December 2022 through August 2024) and to Huntington Ingalls on CVN 80 carrier engineering efforts (two awards in June 2022 and October 2025 for dust collectors and satellite blast equipment delivery/pickup). Fluor Marine Propulsion engaged Rapid Prep for blast equipment rental in support of the Naval Nuclear Laboratory in May 2024.
Activity has remained consistent across 2022–2024 (12, 9, and 13 awards respectively) but declined sharply to two awards in 2025 and one in 2026. The vendor reports combined obligated dollars of $10 million against combined potential value of $7.7 million across its 99-award history, indicating aggressive invoicing or option exercise beyond initial contract ceilings. Rapid Prep competes exclusively within total small business set-asides on its prime work and carries no apparent presence on government-wide vehicles or managed schedules; its one referenced IDV is Naval Sea Systems Command Indefinite Delivery Contract N0002419D4310 with one task order logged.
