THE LIGHTSHIP GROUP, LLC

The Lightship Group, LLC specializes in shipbuilding and repair services for federal maritime assets, with deep expertise in dockside maintenance, vessel system overhauls, and lifecycle support for government-owned vessels. Their technical capabilities include structural repairs, propulsion system servicing, hull integrity assessments, and compliance-driven maintenance aligned with U.S. Coast Guard and Navy standards. The firm also delivers commercial and industrial machinery repair services, particularly for critical power generation systems, demonstrating proficiency in generator diagnostics, mechanical alignment, and preventive maintenance protocols for mission-critical infrastructure. Their ability to execute complex maritime and mechanical repairs under stringent federal operational constraints distinguishes them as a reliable partner for vessels and equipment requiring high-reliability performance in austere environments. The contractor has established consistent relationships with the Department of Homeland Security, where they support maritime security and patrol vessel readiness, and the Department of Defense, providing essential generator maintenance for shore-based and mobile operations. They also serve the Department of Commerce, specifically supporting NOAA’s research fleet through dockside repairs and vessel sustainment activities that ensure uninterrupted scientific missions. These engagements reflect a pattern of trusted, mission-critical support for agencies reliant on sustained maritime and mechanical asset availability. The primary industry focus is shipbuilding and repairing (NAICS 336611), encompassing the fabrication, modification, and repair of government-owned vessels, including research, patrol, and support craft. Secondary expertise in commercial and industrial machinery repair (NAICS 811310) extends their value to non-maritime federal assets, positioning them as a dual-domain provider for complex mechanical systems requiring precision maintenance and regulatory compliance. The Lightship Group, LLC is a small business structured as a 2L entity, headquartered in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. While no formal government certifications are listed, their consistent award history and technical execution indicate strong operational discipline and familiarity with federal procurement and maintenance protocols. Their geographic location provides strategic access to key Northeastern maritime infrastructure, enhancing responsiveness to federal fleet needs.
