Gibb Intellectual Property Law Firm, LLC

Gibb Intellectual Property Law Firm, LLC, doing business as Gibb IP Law Firm, is a small for-profit limited liability company based in Severna Park, Maryland that specializes in providing patent and intellectual property legal services to the federal government. The firm has been registered in SAM.gov since September 2005 and maintains active federal contracting capabilities. Gibb IP Law Firm focuses on delivering comprehensive patent application drafting, patent disclosure preparation, patent prosecution services, and technology transfer support, with particular expertise in naval technologies including shipbuilding, combat systems, marine technologies, and research and development initiatives.

Since 2021, Gibb IP Law Firm has consistently served as a prime contractor to the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), with its contract awards exclusively sourced from this single federal agency. The firm's service delivery has encompassed a diverse portfolio of patent-related work, including the preparation and filing of patent applications, drafting of mechanical patent applications, preparation of patent disclosures for specific naval innovations, and comprehensive patent prosecution support. The contract awards have been structured primarily as Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) calls, with individual task orders ranging from approximately $1,600 to $29,000 in ceiling value. A significant portion of Gibb IP Law Firm's awards—spanning from 2021 through mid-2024—were designated as total small business set-asides, reflecting the government's commitment to supporting small businesses in specialized intellectual property services. Notable recent examples include a $29,000 patent application disclosure award in January 2025, a $15,400 award in August 2024 for multiple patent application disclosures, and a $23,600 mechanical patent drafting purchase order in July 2024. The firm has demonstrated the capacity to handle multiple patent applications simultaneously, as evidenced by awards covering batches of numbered disclosures and applications such as 211284, 211551, 211746, and 211751 in a single contract.

Gibb IP Law Firm currently holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Naval Sea Systems Command valued at $5,000,000, awarded on December 6, 2024, with a period of performance extending through June 14, 2029. This master BPA is not set aside for any specific business type and represents a substantial expansion of the firm's existing relationship with NAVSEA. Under this overarching BPA vehicle, the firm is authorized to provide a comprehensive range of intellectual property legal services including patent application drafting and filing, patent disclosure preparation, patent prosecution, and technology transfer support services focused on naval technologies. The BPA serves as the parent vehicle for task orders such as the mechanical patent services call awarded in September 2025 valued at $9,800, demonstrating the firm's ongoing utilization of this contract vehicle to support NAVSEA's intellectual property strategy for protecting innovations in shipbuilding, combat systems, marine technologies, and naval research and development initiatives.
