Buckley, Michael

Buckley, Michael, doing business as R B Enterprises, is a San Diego-based sole proprietorship that manufactures and supplies specialized electronic components and assemblies to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor on firm fixed-price purchase orders, competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations. R B Enterprises has been registered in the System for Award Management since 2001 and operates from its facility in San Diego, California, with a business structure classified as a for-profit manufacturer of goods.

The vendor's product portfolio is narrowly specialized in defense electronics. Core offerings include circuit card assemblies, backplane assemblies, processors, display units, cable assemblies, disk drive units, multiplexers, and related electronic hardware for military logistics and naval operations. Recent representative prime contracts include a $98.6 thousand Naval Supply Systems Command purchase order for circuit card assemblies (awarded September 2024, completion January 2025), a $146.5 thousand Total Small Business set-aside award from NAVSUP for circuit card assemblies (awarded July 2023, completion January 2024), a $25.9 thousand Naval Sea Systems Command order for trainer displays (awarded June 2022, completion September 2022), and a $10.1 thousand Naval Supply Systems Command order for a processor unit to USS Forrest Sherman (awarded September 2025, completion November 2025). Most awards are firm fixed-price purchase orders in the low-five-to-six-figure range.

Customer concentration is extreme and Navy-centric. The top five Navy organizations account for 88% of the recent 356 awards by count. Naval Supply Systems Command dominates both volume and potential value, with 95 awards totaling $1.5 million in combined potential value. Naval Sea Systems Command, Information Warfare Systems Command, United States Pacific Fleet Forces, and United States Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic) collectively represent the remainder of the Navy footprint. The vendor also serves Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime, Defense Logistics Agency Construction and Equipment, and Department of Defense Aviation, but Navy-wide work represents over 85% of the active portfolio. R B Enterprises does not hold seats on government-wide acquisition contracts, GWACs, or multi-award BPAs; all work flows through spot purchase orders.

Award activity has been episodic rather than sustained. The vendor recorded 5 awards in 2022, 5 in 2023, 2 in 2024, and 7 in 2025, with 1 award in 2026 to date. Combined potential value across all 356 awards is $2.7 million, though combined obligated dollars across the lifetime portfolio total $13.5 million — a ratio indicating substantial historical volume before the recent snapshot window. No subcontract footprint exists in the source data; R B Enterprises operates exclusively as a prime contractor. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurements; one recent contract carried a Total Small Business set-aside designation, but the majority are unset-aside awards. Primary NAICS categories reflect the electronics manufacturing focus: Electronic Computer Manufacturing (104 awards), Bare Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing (43 awards), and Other Computer Peripheral Equipment Manufacturing (23 awards).
