California Peripherals & Components, Inc.

California Peripherals & Components, Inc. supplies electronic equipment and technology peripherals to federal agencies as a prime contractor, with a portfolio dominated by small business set-aside purchase orders for data storage devices, solar panels, and specialized electronic components. The company is a small business Subchapter S corporation based in San Juan Capistrano, California, and has operated as a federal supplier since 2002. It competes as a manufacturer and wholesaler of computer equipment across 17 distinct federal agencies, with mixed set-aside posture — roughly half of recent awards carry total small business set-aside designations, and the remainder are full-and-open or sole-source procurements.

California Peripherals' customer concentration spreads across defense and civilian logistics buyers. The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command leads by award count (15 awards, $352 thousand combined potential value) and holds the second-largest dollar share after the Department of Agriculture Forest Service. However, the Agriculture Forest Service concentrates the most potential value (4 awards, $1.2 million combined potential value) — a $839 thousand foldable solar panels purchase order awarded in October 2024 with performance extending through September 2029 accounts for most of that concentration. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division places the second-highest award count (11 awards, $115 thousand combined potential value). The top five customer agencies account for 69% of awards by count and 61% of combined potential value. Notably, Naval Sea Systems Command dominates frequency but carries smaller individual order sizes, while the Forest Service concentrates larger dollar awards in fewer transactions — the two rankings diverge meaningfully, signaling a customer base split between high-volume routine component orders and larger specialized procurements.

California Peripherals' capability portfolio centers on data storage products, electronic components, and renewable energy systems. Representative work includes a $208.8 thousand total small business purchase order from the Department of Agriculture Acquisitions for flexible solar panels with laminated construction and SAE connectors (awarded May 2026, performance in San Juan Capistrano through July 2026), a $839 thousand total small business purchase order from the same agency for foldable solar panels (awarded October 2024, running through September 2029), and a $159.1 thousand firm fixed-price purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command for high-temperature hookup wire, solder termination sleeves, rotary switches, pin extraction and insertion tools, and crimped contact connectors (awarded December 2025). The vendor also supplies disk drive units, memory cards, external storage devices, USB card readers, Blu-ray disc publishers, and curved displays to Defense Logistics Agency and Naval Sea Systems Command. Activity has accelerated in 2025 (eight awards) after dormancy in 2024 (two awards), with combined potential value across 61 awards totaling $3 million and combined dollars obligated at $1.2 million (41% of potential value).

California Peripherals operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in recent federal work. The vendor holds one position on the Federal Supply Schedule (GS35F0813N) with minimal activity. Top NAICS categories reflect the product portfolio: Computer and Computer Peripheral Equipment and Software Merchant Wholesalers (17 awards), Computer Storage Device Manufacturing (12 awards), and Computer and Software Stores (7 awards). The primary PSC coding concentrates on Information Technology Input/Output And Storage Devices (15 awards) and IT and Telecom Storage Products (8 awards).
