About Vane Brothers Marine Safety & Services, Inc.
Vane Brothers Marine Safety & Services, Inc., a Curtis Bay, Maryland–based for-profit Subchapter S corporation, supplies and services maritime safety equipment, particularly life rafts and related lifesaving gear, to federal maritime customers as a prime contractor under small-business set-asides and full-and-open procurements. The vendor is a self-certified small disadvantaged business competing predominantly under total small-business set-asides on individual purchase orders rather than under government-wide vehicles or multi-year IDIQs.
Vane Brothers' customer concentration is heavily weighted to maritime and naval customers. The Department of Homeland Security U.S. Coast Guard dominates by award count (34 of 54 total awards, 83% of awards coverage), though the Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command anchors the largest dollar share ($451 thousand of $837 thousand combined potential value, or 54% of total). The Bureau of Naval Personnel accounts for 5 awards ($91 thousand), with Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center and United States Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic) rounding out the active customer set. The split between count and dollars reflects Vane Brothers' posture: numerous smaller Coast Guard inspection and maintenance orders paired with fewer but larger Navy supply and repair awards.
The vendor's capability portfolio centers on life-raft inspection, repair, and supply. Representative recent work includes a $184,256 firm fixed-price purchase order from Military Sealift Command awarded August 17, 2023, for liferafts delivery (completed February 16, 2024); a $6,886.20 total small-business purchase order from the Coast Guard awarded January 27, 2026, for annual life-raft service inspection on the CGC SMILAX (completion June 1, 2026); and a $3,560.20 total small-business purchase order from the Coast Guard awarded February 21, 2024, for raft repairs (completed November 10, 2024). The vendor works under multiple NAICS codes — Ship Building and Repairing (17 awards), Other Support Activities for Water Transportation (14 awards), and Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance (10 awards) — and falls primarily under PSC codes for Marine Equipment Maintenance and Repair (18 awards) and Marine Lifesaving and Diving Equipment (7 awards).
Activity has been sparse in recent years, with one award each in 2023, 2024, and 2026, down from two awards annually in 2017 and 2018. The vendor has not placed work on government-wide vehicles such as GWACs or multi-award IDIQs; all 54 awards are individual purchase orders to prime, indicating a transactional procurement posture rather than an enterprise contract relationship. All combined potential value ($837 thousand) has been obligated, indicating delivery completion across the portfolio.
