Gdca, Inc.

Gdca, Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of legacy embedded electronics headquartered in Livermore, California, supplies circuit card assemblies, computer subassemblies, and sustainment engineering services to the Department of the Navy and Defense Logistics Agency as a prime contractor (80% of recent awards) and as a subcontractor to major defense primes. The company competes full-and-open with no set-aside designations across its prime footprint.

Gdca's business centers on manufacturing and repair of discontinued electronic components and sustaining engineering for defense platforms with extended service lives. Representative prime work includes a $699,794 firm fixed-price purchase order from Naval Sea Systems Command (May 2022) for 59 VME I/O input circuit card assemblies supporting the NATO Sea Sparrow Surface Missile System; a $789,237 Small Business Innovation Research Phase II award from Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support (September 2023) to establish a new source of supply for a critical circuit card assembly (NSN 7730-01-532-4524); and a $413,086 sole-source purchase order from Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (July 2025) for an I/O Module, Non-ROHS IPMC712-002. On the subcontractor side, Gdca delivers printed circuit assembly manufacturing to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation across multiple Air Force programs including Global Hawk platform logistics support and aircraft maintenance services, and supplies circuit cards and subassemblies to Raytheon Company for naval systems modernization and fire control work.

The vendor's customer footprint is dominated by Navy commands. The top five funding agencies by award count account for 78% of recent awards, led decisively by Naval Supply Systems Command (61 awards, $1.7 million combined potential value) and Naval Sea Systems Command (33 awards, $4 billion combined potential value). This concentration is sharply weighted toward dollars — Naval Sea Systems Command's single $4 billion Seaport-NXG Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract (awarded January 2, 2025, valid through January 1, 2029) represents the vast majority of the vendor's potential value. Naval Information Warfare Systems Command, Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support, and the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration Technical Center round out the active base. Gdca does not compete under set-aside categories; all prime awards visible in the source carry "No Set-Aside Used" designations.

Gdca holds two named federal vehicles anchoring its prime work: the $4 billion Seaport-NXG IDIQ with Naval Sea Systems Command (multiple award, no set-aside) and a $1 million GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract (Multiple Award, no set-aside, effective through June 28, 2027). The MAS contract includes two service offerings — sustainment options reports at $5,000 per delivery and new source of supply engineering at $262,600 — both requiring performing engineers with a minimum of five years' experience and a bachelor's degree. Additional task-order vehicles named in the source include Basic Ordering Agreement N0038322GS501 (14 task orders) and several Air Force-issued Indefinite Delivery Contracts (FA853921D0001, FA869021D1009, and SPRBL115D0017, two task orders each).

Activity has grown steadily — seven awards in 2022 to eighteen in 2025, with fourteen visible in 2026 year-to-date (through April 2026). The combined potential value across all 136 awards (prime and sub) stands at $4.01 billion, though only $14.6 million has been obligated, reflecting the heavy weight of the unexercised Seaport-NXG ceiling. Recompete exposure is minimal: only two awards totaling $230 thousand reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Gdca's subcontractor relationships are concentrated with Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (nine sub awards in the source, primarily Air Force printed circuit assembly and aircraft sustainment work), Raytheon Company (three subs for naval systems and fire control), General Dynamics Mission Systems (fire control omnibus work), and Atlantic Diving Supply (electronics component fulfillment). The vendor's capability portfolio across NAICS codes emphasizes Printed Circuit Assembly Manufacturing (29 awards) and Bare Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing (27 awards), with secondary exposure in Electronic Computer Manufacturing (21 awards) and electronic equipment repair (9 awards). PSC concentration mirrors this — 62 awards under PSC 5998 (Electrical and Electronic Assemblies, Boards, Cards, and Associated Hardware) and seven under maintenance/repair PSCs.
