Data Source Inc.

Data Source Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Brighton, Colorado, provides legacy media digitization, hardware maintenance for media conversion systems, and digital asset management services to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on purchase orders (96% of recent awards), with a single-award subcontract footprint under Lockheed Martin. The company competes predominantly full-and-open across Department of Air Force organizations, with no characteristic set-aside posture, although one notable award carries an 8(a) sole-source designation.

Data Source Inc.'s customer base concentrates heavily within Air Force Materiel Command logistics complexes. The top five customer lines account for 91% of recent awards by count and 92% by combined potential value, with the Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex anchoring the footprint at 15 awards and $950 thousand in combined potential value, followed by the Ogden Air Logistics Complex with 7 awards and $390 thousand. The Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command represents secondary exposure at 11 awards but only $71 thousand combined value — a pattern of small-dollar orders. Air Force Sustainment Center and various other Air Force entities round out the active customer set. The vendor has maintained an active federal contracting presence since 2004.

Data Source Inc.'s capability portfolio centers on legacy media format conversion, hardware maintenance for media conversion systems, and digital asset and software control operations. Recent representative work includes a $137,725 Total Small Business set-aside purchase order from Air Force Materiel Command running through January 2030 for Exact Copy maintenance at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma; a $78,682 hardware maintenance contract from Hill Air Force Base covering legacy media conversion system maintenance through May 2027; a $68,700 DataScribe upgrade order from Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex; and a $57,570 audit, labeling, and digitization engagement for the 402nd Software Maintenance Group's Software Control Center at Robins Air Force Base. The vendor's award portfolio clusters around software reproducing, computer storage device manufacturing, and computer repair and maintenance (NAICS 334618, 334611, 811212 categories), with purchase orders typically ranging from $57 thousand to $137 thousand in ceiling value.

Activity has remained flat over the past five years (two awards annually in 2019, 2020, 2022, 2024, and 2025), with combined obligated dollars of $2.4 million against a combined potential value of $2.1 million across 47 total awards. Two awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $147 thousand and face recompete exposure. In its subcontractor role, Data Source Inc. supports Lockheed Martin on rugged portable server and RAID system baseline development and certification work.
