Paragon One Group LLC

Paragon One Group LLC, a minority-owned, woman-owned small business based in Gaithersburg, Maryland, supplies office technology equipment and electronic components to the federal government as a prime contractor on nearly two thousand purchase orders and indefinite delivery contracts, competing predominantly in full-and-open procurements rather than set-asides, though holding multiple Total Small Business set-aside vehicles with the Defense Logistics Agency.

The company is structured as a limited liability partnership and holds SBA certifications as a self-certified small disadvantaged business (SDB), economically disadvantaged women-owned small business (EDWOSB), woman-owned small business (WOSB), and Black American-owned enterprise. Paragon One Group competes across NAICS 423420 (Office Equipment Merchant Wholesalers) and related computer peripheral manufacturing and storage categories, with PSC work concentrated in miscellaneous office machines, IT storage products, and batteries.

Paragon One Group's federal footprint centers on the Defense Logistics Agency, which accounts for the vast majority of recent work. The top five customers by award count—GSA Federal Acquisition Service (746 awards, $389 thousand), DLA Troop Support Construction and Equipment (447 awards, $4.9 million), DLA Land and Maritime (355 awards, $2.4 million), DLA Document Services (226 awards, $42.6 million), and DLA Aviation (187 awards, $1.8 million)—cover 99 percent of awards. By potential value, the rankings diverge sharply: DLA Headquarters anchors the portfolio with five awards worth $57.9 million, largely reflecting the company's $17.1 million five-year multiple-award IDIQ with DLA Document Services and newly awarded vehicles, while DLA Document Services contributes $42.6 million across 226 delivery orders. The Naval Air Warfare Center holds a $5.1 million blanket purchase agreement (four-year term, NSN-based supply for electronic components), positioning Paragon One Group as a recurring vendor for aviation electronics and components supporting Navy operations.

Paragon One Group holds several parent IDIQs anchoring its prime footprint. The DLA Document Services $17.1 million five-year multiple-award IDIQ (awarded prior to the source window, continuing through at least 2030) generates the highest volume of task orders for desktop multifunctional devices, printers, flatbed scanners, and accessories distributed to Department of Defense locations worldwide, with a $1 million subordinate multiple-award BPA for A4 multifunctional devices in overseas locations. A newly awarded $2.72 million multiple-award IDIQ with DLA Document Services (awarded December 9, 2025, extending through December 8, 2030) covers heavy-duty professional production scanners and accessories across CONUS, Guam, and Hawaii. Single-award vehicles include a $250,000 indefinite delivery contract with DLA Land and Maritime (awarded October 20, 2025, terminating October 20, 2026) for toner cartridges; a $250,000 contract with DLA Aviation (awarded September 2, 2025, extending through September 1, 2030) for aviation-related electronic components; and a $250,000 vehicle with DLA Land and Maritime for digital communication harnesses (awarded March 24, 2025, completed June 26, 2025). The GSA Federal Acquisition Service Blanket Purchase Agreement 47QSEA19A0005 carries 645 task orders valued at $47 thousand combined, representing transactional ordering rather than strategic supply concentration.

Recent representative work demonstrates Paragon One Group's core capability. Examples include a $53 million delivery order (October 21, 2025) from DLA Document Services for 24 multifunctional devices and 69 toner cartridges with delivery to Alaska, Guam, and Hawaii; a $46.9 million delivery order (December 1, 2025) from DLA Document Services for 19 desktop printers, 12 scanners, and toners for West Coast CONUS; a $38.6 million purchase order (November 14, 2025, Total Small Business set-aside) from DLA Land and Maritime for 4,289 electrical connectors; a $33.2 million purchase order (December 15, 2025, Total Small Business set-aside) from DLA Aviation for 2,733 electrical power strips; a $34.5 million purchase order (March 19, 2026, Total Small Business set-aside) from DLA Construction and Equipment for data entry keyboards; and a $25.35 million purchase order (December 18, 2025, Total Small Business set-aside) from DLA Land and Maritime for an optical reader/data device. Smaller awards span toner cartridges ($1.5 thousand to $15 thousand range), cable assemblies, battery storage equipment, keyboards, power supplies, and interface units across DLA divisions and the Naval Air Warfare Center, with individual order values ranging from under $50 to approximately $50 thousand.

Activity has grown substantially: 61 awards in 2022 to 277 in 2024, with 265 awards in 2025 and 84 in 2026 (through April). Combined potential value across all 1,981 prime awards stands at $115.6 million, with $12 million obligated (10 percent execution rate). The recompete cliff is minimal—seven awards worth $77 thousand reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Paragon One Group competes predominantly in full-and-open procurements; approximately 30 percent of recent awards carry Total Small Business set-aside designations, while the remainder reflect open competition. The company has no subcontract footprint in the source data; all work is prime.

Paragon One Group's business model centers on government supply-chain logistics as a small business wholesaler and component distributor. The company maintains rapid-turnaround ordering across DLA divisions (many orders complete within 30–90 days) and executes delivery to geographically dispersed defense installations domestically and overseas. The company's SDB and EDWOSB certifications, combined with small business pricing, position it competitively against larger prime contractors in both set-aside and open bidding on commodity office equipment and electronic components, particularly where DLA seeks rapid fulfillment of consumables and standard IT peripherals across the defense supply chain.
