About the company
Rice Lake Weighing Systems, Inc., doing business as Measurement Systems International, manufactures and distributes precision load cell sensors, crane scales, retrofit kits, and calibration services to the Department of Defense and civilian agencies primarily as a prime contractor (98% of recent awards) under full-and-open competition, with no SBA set-aside certifications. The company is a small business Subchapter S corporation based in Kent, Washington, operating as a child entity of its parent, Rice Lake Weighing Systems, Inc., headquartered in Rice Lake, Wisconsin.
Rice Lake's federal work centers on load cell sensors and weighing equipment supplying defense logistics and naval operations. Recent representative awards include a $46,725 March 2026 purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command for crane retrofit kit assemblies supporting rigging operations at Norfolk Naval Shipyard; a $145,870 August 2025 total small business set-aside purchase order from NAVSEA for load cells to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard; a $25,185 October 2025 delivery order from Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime for load cell sensors; and a $69,308 non-personal services contract with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for MSI crane scale calibration and maintenance running through December 2026. Rice Lake holds two single-award indefinite delivery contracts with Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, each valued at $250,000, enabling routine load cell sensor procurement on an as-needed basis for distribution to Defense Logistics Agency depots across CONUS and OCONUS consolidation points.
Customer concentration is heavily weighted to defense logistics. The top five agencies account for 98% of awards: Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime leads in potential value ($741 thousand across 15 awards), followed by Naval Sea Systems Command (24 awards, $612 thousand), Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (6 awards, $342 thousand), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (3 awards, $99 thousand), and U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces (5 awards, $35 thousand). Rice Lake sits on two indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Land and Maritime, which anchor the firm's recurring business model. The company maintains active task order placement under these vehicles and a basic ordering agreement (SPRPA121GCF01) with DLA.
Award activity declined materially from a 2022 peak of twelve awards to two awards year-to-date in 2026, with combined potential value across all fifty-four awards totaling $1.8 million. One award carries an ultimate completion date within the next twenty-four months and faces recompete exposure of approximately $69 thousand. Rice Lake subcontracts minimally — a single 2025 sub-award under Bell Boeing Joint Project Office for load cell sensors — and operates almost entirely as a prime contractor supplying measurement hardware and repair services directly to Navy and DLA customers. The company's footprint aligns consistently with Small Arms and Ordnance Manufacturing, Electronic Equipment Repair and Maintenance, and Measuring and Controlling Device Manufacturing NAICS categories; federal buyers code its work predominantly under Degaussing and Mine Sweeping Equipment, Scales and Balances, and Rigging and Rigging Gear PSC codes, reflecting the naval and shipyard equipment focus of its customer base.
