Redwood Shore Diving, Inc.

Redwood Shore Diving, Inc., doing business as Parker Diving Service, a self-certified small disadvantaged business, operates as a prime contractor providing commercial diving, oil spill response, hazardous materials mitigation, vessel salvage, and marine debris removal services to federal agencies along the California coast. The company competes exclusively on an unrestricted (full-and-open) basis and does not use set-aside designations despite its SDB certification; all 202 awards in the source record are prime contracts with no subcontract footprint.

Redwood Shore Diving is headquartered in Sausalito, California, and operates as a Subchapter S corporation. The capability portfolio is narrowly specialized: the vendor categorizes 162 of its 202 awards under NAICS 564220 (Remediation Services), with the remainder split across salvage, support services, and marine equipment maintenance. The PSC categorization is equally tight — 149 awards carry PSC code C — Environmental Systems Protection, Oil Spill Response — positioning the company as a reactive, on-call responder to environmental incidents rather than a provider of planned services.

Customer concentration is extreme. The Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Coast Guard accounts for 126 awards (79% of the portfolio) with a combined potential value of $62.7 million. The Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration places 19 awards worth $5.5 million, and the Department of the Interior's National Park Service Pacific West Region holds 13 awards valued at $241 thousand. The Army Corps of Engineers represents one award. This three-agency dominance reflects the vendor's geographic and mission specialization: emergency maritime environmental response within federal jurisdiction along Northern California's coast.

The vendor's primary indefinite-delivery vehicle is a $3.99 million Basic Ordering Agreement with the Coast Guard, awarded May 16, 2024, and running through August 15, 2028, for oil spill and hazardous chemical incident mitigation. A second $5 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with NOAA, effective January 1, 2024, through June 30, 2029, covers marine debris program removal support. Earlier BOAs with the Coast Guard (dated August 2022, with a $990 thousand ceiling and expiration August 12, 2024) generated approximately $1.99 million in delivery orders through February 2025. Across the top five parent vehicles named in the source, 125 task orders carry a combined potential value of roughly $5 million, reflecting the vendor's posture as an on-call contractor placing small, reactive delivery orders in response to specific pollution events.

Recent award activity shows a pattern consistent with incident-driven work: nine awards in 2025, ten in 2024, six in 2023, and nine in 2022, with four awards recorded in 2026 through February 25. Representative recent work includes a $315 thousand delivery order from the Coast Guard for oil spill mitigation in Bodega Bay (February 2024), a $39.4 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from NOAA for 27-foot sailboat salvage in Sausalito (September 2023), a $24.8 thousand purchase order from the National Park Service for unauthorized shipwreck removal at Golden Gate National Recreation Area (September 2024), and a series of Coast Guard delivery orders in the $4,700 to $70,000 range for spill response work across locations including San Francisco, Alameda, Brisbane, and Suisun City (ranging from December 2025 through February 2026).

The Service Contract Inventory dataset captures limited federal service-contract activity: $2.1 million in invoiced revenue across two prime records (FY2023–FY2024), with FY2024 showing $1.9 million in SCI-reportable invoicing across 28.7 FTEs on the contract level. SCI hourly-rate posture shows median government-paid rates around $122.69/hr, with 10th percentile at $50.06/hr and 90th percentile at $195.32/hr — a wide range consistent with a mixed labor force spanning divers, technicians, equipment operators, and project management. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, an average of 48% of contractor hours were performed by subcontractors; the vendor named two subcontractors in SCI records but does not carry a named-sub footprint in the prime contract awards listed in the source. The SCI figures represent a partial slice of federal services activity and do not reflect the vendor's full revenue, which likely includes substantial micro-purchase work, task-order callouts below the $150 thousand threshold, and non-federal commercial diving and salvage work.

The vendor's federal customer base has remained stable over the source period (2022–2026), with the Coast Guard consistently accounting for the vast majority of awards and dollars. Recompete exposure is limited by the nature of the work: BOAs and BPAs expire on scheduled dates (the current Coast Guard BOA expires August 2028; the NOAA BPA expires June 2029), but the vendor's position on these vehicles is not currently threatened by pending expiration within the source's timeframe. The vendor has federal contracting history dating to May 2000, indicating a two-decade track record in the federal maritime environmental response space.
