About Tropical Reef Shipyard PTY LTD
Tropical Reef Shipyard PTY LTD operates as an Australian-based shipyard providing Army watercraft maintenance, repair, and sustainment services to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor, exclusively competing on full-and-open (non-set-aside) awards with no subcontract footprint to date. The vendor is organized as a partnership or limited liability partnership and is headquartered in Cairns City, Queensland, Australia.
Tropical Reef Shipyard's federal work concentrates on watercraft preservation for the Army. The vendor holds two multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contracts awarded by TACOM Life Cycle Management Command on January 30, 2026—one for Army Watercraft Sustainment Maintenance (AWSM) Program OCONUS Zone 2 support with a $211 million ceiling through July 30, 2031, and a second for AWSM Zone 3 Pier Side operations with a $69.8 million ceiling over the same period. Both are being executed at the vendor's Australia-based facility. Work performed to date consists of two start-of-work meeting delivery orders (each $1,000, awarded February 15, 2026, with completion scheduled for March 15, 2026) against those two IDIQs, plus a $37 thousand firm-fixed-price purchase order from Army Pacific Command issued August 27, 2025, for Army watercraft engine damage assessment with completion on September 28, 2025. The vendor also holds a single-award Basic Ordering Agreement with US Pacific Fleet Forces for boat repair work, awarded September 16, 2022, with a zero-dollar ceiling (no task orders issued to date under that vehicle).
Customer concentration aligns entirely with Army watercraft platforms. TACOM Life Cycle Management Command accounts for four of six awards (100% of combined potential value at $280.8 million), while Army Pacific Command and US Pacific Fleet Forces contribute one award each. The source data spans three years (2022, 2025, 2026), with activity accelerating recently—one award in 2022, one in 2025, and four in 2026. Combined obligated dollars remain minimal at $39 thousand against combined potential value of $280.9 million, reflecting early-stage contract execution (most awards are start-of-work meetings or nascent task orders). Awards cluster under NAICS 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing) and 488330 (Other Support Activities for Water Transportation), with corresponding PSC codes for naval ship repair and watercraft maintenance. All work is performed in Australia with no set-aside designation across the prime portfolio.
