About 45 Drives Usa, Inc.
45 Drives Usa, Inc., a child entity of Protocase USA Inc. based in Wilmington, North Carolina, supplies high-performance server hardware and storage systems to federal agencies as a prime contractor on small-business-set-aside purchase orders and as a subcontractor to large defense primes. The vendor operates in early-stage federal footprint with three awards across two years (2024–2026), two as prime and one as sub, totaling $167 thousand in combined potential value against $3.5 million in obligated dollars — indicating unit-price or delivery mechanics that drive invoiced spend well above ceiling values on individual orders.
The vendor serves three distinct customer agencies. NASA's Shared Services Center anchors the prime portfolio with a $105,490 sole-source purchase order awarded June 17, 2026, for two F8X2 servers configured with AMD EPYC processors, 256GB DDR5 RAM, dual 100Gb/s network interfaces, and 20 Seagate Exos 16TB drives per unit, running Rocky Linux 9 with Houston software, with delivery to NASA Langley Research Center and ultimate completion by July 17, 2026. The Office of Naval Research issued a $62,000 small-business-set-aside purchase order in December 2024 for a single server. The Army's Acquisition Support Center PEO Enterprise Information Systems appears in the portfolio as a third customer, though the award dollar value is not disclosed in the source. 45 Drives operates as a subcontractor to Leidos, Inc., providing procured goods and services including power supplies, servers, processors, network adapters, rack servers, and cabling in support of a Leidos contract with sub-award activity between October 31, 2024, and January 21, 2025.
The vendor competes on small-business-set-aside and sole-source authority; neither prime award carried competitive set-aside designation. One award (the NASA order) faces recompete within twenty-four months. The vendor does not currently hold a seat on any multi-award IDIQ or GWAC in the source data.
