Phoenix Group of Virginia

What Phoenix Group of Virginia does

Phoenix Group of Virginia, Inc. is a privately held defense and government services firm founded in 2008 and headquartered in Chesapeake, Virginia. The company specializes in shipboard damage control products, integrated logistics support, engineering and technical services, and program management, primarily serving the U.S. Navy, U.S. Army, U.S. Coast Guard, NATO, and U.S. Air Force. Its flagship proprietary offering is the Damage Control Inventory Management Stowage System (DCIMSS), which the firm pioneered for naval damage control readiness, supplemented by a portfolio of patented hardware including the Shipboard Multi-Tool (three granted patents), the patented Smart Valve for water systems, and the patent-pending GWS Eco-Clamp fuel saver. The company is also developing the ARMS mobile 5-axis CNC manufacturing system under U.S. Army and Navy SBIR Phase 1 programs for expeditionary parts production.

The firm generates revenue through two intertwined streams: professional services delivered via prime and subcontract awards on federal vehicles including Seaport NxG, OASIS+, MSTIC (OTA), and SBIR Phase III, and hardware sales of shipboard damage control products, rescue equipment, and energy-saving devices through Navy Servmart/DoD EMALL and direct sales. Anchor programs include the 5-year Waterfront Engineering Support (WES) contract at Huntington Ingalls Industries' Newport News shipyard supporting CVN Refueling and Complex Overhaul (RCOH) work, and the 5-year Carrier Team One contract won in December 2024 with teaming partners Orbis Sibro and APQQ. The firm operates a second office in Newport News, Virginia, and maintains embedded personnel at NAVSEA 08, SUPSHIP Newport News, and PMS 312/368 program offices. Leadership is drawn heavily from former U.S. Navy and DoD acquisition professionals, and the company was acquired by Phoenix Group Holdings in 2023.

• VSE Corporation: Public small/mid-cap defense logistics and sustainment services firm serving Navy, Army, Air Force and other DoD agencies. Most directly comparable to Phoenix Group on the integrated logistics, fleet sustainment, and Navy program services axes, with both companies operating similar Seaport-family contract vehicles.
• Delphinus Engineering, Inc. Small private defense contractor focused on Navy and shipyard engineering services, including RCOH support at HII-NNS. Closest comparable in size, DoD customer base, and carrier maintenance/repair program work.
• Imagine One Technology & Management, Ltd. Small veteran-owned DoD contractor providing program management, logistics, and engineering support to Navy and other federal agencies via Seaport NxG and similar vehicles. Highly comparable on services mix, scale (small headcount), and contract vehicles.

Broad incumbents

• Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII): Largest U.S. military shipbuilder and Phoenix's direct shipyard partner for CVN RCOH programs. While not a competitor (it's the customer/partner), it shares the naval sustainment ecosystem and often sub-contracts adjacent services to firms like Phoenix.
• Oceaneering International, Inc. Diversified marine services and engineered products firm with maritime government services and subsea product offerings serving commercial and defense customers. Comparable in marine/government-services overlap though much larger.
• SAIC: Large defense IT and engineering services prime serving Navy, DoD, and federal civilian agencies. Operates as an incumbent across the same Seaport-Rx vehicle and adjacent Navy program offices Phoenix targets.
• Dräger Safety AG & Co. KGaA: Global safety equipment manufacturer producing SCBAs, gas detection, firefighting and rescue equipment for maritime, industrial, and first-responder markets. Direct peer for Phoenix's SCBA enclosures and smoke tent/curtain product lines though much larger and broader.

Emerging players

• Survival Systems International, Inc. Niche training and equipment provider for maritime damage control and survival equipment, serving U.S. Navy, Coast Guard, and commercial fleets. Adjacent product overlap with Phoenix's damage control franchise and rescue products.
