About the company
Submerged Direct LLC, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business based in Cave Spring, Virginia, manufactures and supplies waterproof diving drysuits and related underwater equipment to U.S. Navy and Department of Defense special operations units as a prime contractor operating exclusively in the full-and-open marketplace without set-aside protections. The company is a self-certified small disadvantaged business and economically disadvantaged woman-owned small business structured as a limited liability company.
Submerged Direct operates in a narrow, specialized capability niche: diving drysuits and undergarments conforming to ISO SDVT2 standards, along with drysuit dive equipment for underwater military operations. The company's entire award footprint — nine purchase orders totaling $831 thousand in combined potential value — reflects this single product line across two customer agencies. Recent representative work includes a $115,900 firm fixed-price purchase order from Naval Special Warfare Command awarded February 13, 2026, for waterproof drysuits to be performed in Roanoke, Virginia; a $149,969.83 purchase order from U.S. Special Operations Command awarded August 26, 2024, for diving drysuits; and a $95,620 purchase order from Naval Special Warfare Command awarded March 9, 2026, for waterproof drysuits performed in Virginia Beach.
Customer concentration is extreme. U.S. Special Operations Command and Department of the Navy Naval Special Warfare Command account for 100% of recent awards — USSOCOM at six awards and $520 thousand combined potential value, and NSWC at three awards and $312 thousand combined potential value. The source notes that USSOCOM placed six purchase orders totaling approximately $520,942 since July 2023, confirming sustained repeat business from a single customer.
All nine awards are purchase orders classified under NAICS 338160 (Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing) or related marine equipment codes; none carry set-aside designations. Activity has remained flat to modest: two awards in 2023, three in 2024, two in 2025, and two in 2026 year-to-date. Because all awards shown are 100% obligated purchase orders with completion dates between January 2023 and May 2026, the vendor faces significant recompete exposure if USSOCOM and NSWC sustain their historical demand. Submerged Direct operates as a pure prime — no subcontract work appears in the award portfolio — and does not hold positions on government-wide IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs.
