Welin Lambie LIMITED

Welin Lambie LIMITED, through its Welin Lambie LTD. Division, manufactures and delivers boat launching and retrieval systems, davits, and associated maritime equipment and technical support to the U.S. Coast Guard and Department of the Navy as a prime contractor under full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations. The United Kingdom-based for-profit manufacturer operates as a child entity within the Fairbanks Morse corporate structure and competes exclusively on unrestricted awards reflecting the specialized, original-equipment-manufacturer nature of its davit systems and hydraulic components.

Welin Lambie's federal footprint is heavily concentrated with the Department of Homeland Security's U.S. Coast Guard, which accounts for 875 of the 1,257 total awards (69% by count) and $215.4 million of the $331 million combined potential value (65% by dollars). The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command ranks second with 56 awards and $51.9 million combined potential value, followed by the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (58 awards, $1.5 million), U.S. Pacific Fleet Forces (28 awards, $913 thousand), and Naval Supply Systems Command (27 awards, $881 thousand). These top five customer agencies represent 83% of award count and 84% of potential value. The vendor holds a dominant position on two Coast Guard indefinite delivery contracts: HSCG4012D20001 (387 task orders, $26.6 million combined potential value) and DTCG4000D50030 (25 task orders, $37 million combined potential value), as well as Navy vehicle 70Z08018DP4535300 (150 task orders, $40.4 million combined potential value).

Welin Lambie's concrete capability portfolio centers on TW.PIV 5.0B davit systems for medium endurance cutters, including procurement of new davits, overhaul and maintenance services, stock parts provisioning, and on-site technical representative support. A single-award Coast Guard IDIQ awarded July 14, 2025, with a ceiling of $64,363,958.86 running through July 2030 anchors the recent pipeline and provides comprehensive support for davit procurement, overhaul, stock parts, and technical services. Representative recent delivery orders include a $1,989,873.74 award (August 12, 2025) for new build dual point davits TW.PIV 5.0B; a $1,336,005.20 order (July 14, 2026) for technical support services for TW.PIV 5.0 davits; a $994,936.87 order (June 12, 2026) for dual point davit purchase; a $735,696.34 order (June 16, 2026) for inspection, reporting, and potential overhaul of a TW.PIV 5.0 davit system; and a $741,272.75 order (August 13, 2025) for inventory stock parts supporting medium endurance cutters. The vendor also delivers specialized components including luffing actuators, electric brakes, wire rope kits, hydraulic systems, and seal replacement kits to Navy and DLA supply commands.

Top NAICS categories reflect this specialization: Overhead Traveling Crane, Hoist, and Monorail System Manufacturing (843 awards), Ship Building and Repairing (135 awards), and Commercial and Industrial Machinery Repair and Maintenance (24 awards). Top PSCs align similarly: Miscellaneous Ship and Marine Equipment (292 awards), Deck Machinery (194 awards), and Maintenance/Repair/Rebuild of Ship and Marine Equipment (100 awards). Activity has declined year over year from 33 awards in 2022 to nine in 2026 through mid-July, though the $64.4 million Coast Guard IDIQ awarded last month substantially resets the opportunity window. Eleven awards (combined potential value $10.3 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore present recompete exposure. Welin Lambie operates as a single-award prime contractor almost exclusively; sub-award activity consists of one CVN 80 sub-award to Huntington Ingalls for steel brakes and engineering efforts (December 2025), with Fairbanks Morse listed as the parent vendor.
