CIRCUIT CARD ASSY
DEPT OF DEFENSE.DEFENSE LOGISTICS AGENCY.DLA MARITIME.DLA MARITIME MECHANICSBURG.SPRMM1 DLA MECHANICSBURG · Response deadline: Fri, 20 Nov 2026
What the government is buying
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Maritime Mechanicsburg is soliciting offers for circuit card assemblies through its supply chain procurement operations. Circuit card assemblies are printed circuit boards populated with electronic components such as integrated circuits, resistors, capacitors, and connectors—forming functional electronic modules used in defense systems and equipment.
DLA Maritime Mechanicsburg serves as a procurement hub supporting Navy and Marine Corps requirements, as well as other defense customers. The 5998 classification code confirms this is electrical and electronic equipment, consistent with circuit card assembly procurement. These assemblies typically support repair, maintenance, and manufacturing of military electronics ranging from communications equipment to weapons systems and navigation gear.

Who can bid
This is an unrestricted solicitation with no small-business set-aside, meaning businesses of any size may compete—including large manufacturers. However, small businesses in the electronics manufacturing sector should not be discouraged, as DLA frequently awards to qualified small businesses even in unrestricted competitions.
Under NAICS 334412, eligible offerors typically engage in printed circuit board manufacturing or contract electronics manufacturing services. Firms should possess or be able to obtain appropriate defense contracting infrastructure, including:
- ITAR registration (circuit cards for defense applications typically involve controlled technical data)
- ISO or AS9100 quality certifications commonly expected in defense electronics
- Experience with government contract clauses and defense unique requirements
Small businesses without prior DLA experience may still compete if they can demonstrate manufacturing capability and obtain necessary registrations before award.
How to put together a competitive bid
Verify technical capability against the actual requirements. The solicitation will specify form, fit, function, and performance requirements for these circuit card assemblies—potentially including military specifications (MIL-PRF, MIL-STD) or commercial item descriptions. See the solicitation for exact technical data.
Confirm supply chain and obsolescence management. DLA frequently procures electronic assemblies with long lifecycles. Demonstrate how you will manage component obsolescence, alternate sourcing, and long-term sustainment.
Address quality and testing explicitly. Expect requirements for functional testing, environmental screening, or burn-in testing. Detail your test capabilities and acceptance protocols.
Review packaging and marking requirements. DLA has strict military preservation and packaging standards (MIL-STD-2073) that differ substantially from commercial practice.
Evaluate subcontracting opportunities. If you're a small business lacking full vertical capability, identify potential teaming partners for specialized processes (precision soldering, conformal coating, x-ray inspection).
Prepare for past performance evaluation. Government solicitations typically evaluate recent relevant contract performance—document comparable deliveries to DLA, other defense agencies, or commercial equivalents.
Next steps

Note the firm deadline: November 20, 2026 at 4:30 PM Eastern Time. DLA systems typically require proposal submission through AS网页 (Acquisition System Wide) or the specified electronic portal—verify submission method and allow time for technical difficulties. Given the 21-day posting period, treat this as a standard procurement with limited opportunity for pre-bid inquiries; submit questions promptly if any specifications need clarification.
