How to buy

Send us the solicitation or the item list, get one fixed-price response covering every line, and pay by purchase card or against our invoice.

Ordering and acquisition methods

We hold no contract vehicle. Everything below is an authority you already have; nothing here requires us to be on a schedule.

Thresholds per FAR 2.101, as adjusted effective October 1, 2025 (FAC 2025-06); current through FAC 2026-01.
MethodTypical valueHow it works
Government purchase cardUp to $15,000Federal micro-purchase. Send the item list, take the quote, pay by card. No competing quotes are needed where the price is reasonable.
Simplified acquisition$15,000 – $350,000Send the RFQ. We return one fixed-price quote covering every line; you issue the order.
Open-market purchase orderUp to $350,000An order under simplified acquisition procedures, placed on the open market under your own authority. We are not on a schedule; nothing is bought through a vehicle.
