About Sierra Circuits, Inc.

Sierra Circuits, Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Sunnyvale, California, designs, fabricates, assembles, and tests printed circuit boards and microelectronics for the Department of Defense, NASA, and naval commands as a prime contractor (76% of awards) and subcontractor. The company holds SBA certifications as a woman-owned business, American Indian-owned enterprise, and Subcontinent Asian American-owned minority business, and competes across both set-aside and full-and-open solicitations.

Sierra Circuits' capability portfolio centers on custom PCB fabrication, assembly, and microelectronics design, validation, and testing for defense and space applications. Representative prime work includes a $1.2 million multiple-award BPA with the Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) awarded in June 2023, extended in February 2026 to $1,285,714 through February 2031 under NAICS 334418 (Printed Circuit Assembly Manufacturing), which has generated eleven task orders valued at $484 thousand; a $95,637.68 sole-source purchase order from Naval Air Warfare Center in January 2023 for PCB fabrication supporting national security systems; an $89,183.76 purchase order from NASA's Shared Services Center in August 2023 for lunar inverter breadboard prototype PCB fabrication and assembly; and a $75,941.75 BPA call from DMEA in September 2025 for spare PCB assemblies under total small business set-aside. Recent awards include $129 thousand from DMEA in March 2026 for PCB design, fabrication, assembly, and microelectronics procurement, $40,562 from Naval Sea Systems Command in April 2024 for telemetry boards supporting the Vector Sensor Array program, and $30,117.44 from NASA in March 2026 for Mini-Z45 PCB fabrication and assembly.

Customer concentration is defense-heavy and Navy-dominant. The top five buying activities account for 63% of all awards: DMEA (16 awards, $3 million combined potential value), Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center (18 awards, $1.4 million), Naval Sea Systems Command (33 awards, $333 thousand), NASA Shared Services Center (13 awards, $314 thousand), and the Office of Naval Research (8 awards, $309 thousand). The company serves 28 distinct federal agencies in total, but Navy commands and DMEA represent the sustained revenue base. Award concentration by potential value shifts slightly toward DMEA, reflecting higher individual task order magnitude on the microelectronics vehicle.

Sierra Circuits holds two active BPAs with DMEA: the original $1.2 million vehicle (HQ072723A0800, established June 2023, through June 2026) and a new $1,285,714 vehicle established February 2026 running through February 2031. Under the legacy BPA, Sierra Circuits has issued or received 11 task orders valued at $484 thousand. The company also maintains purchase order relationships with Navy commands, NASA, and the Office of Naval Research, but does not hold a position on broader government-wide vehicles such as GWACs or agency-wide IDIQs.

Activity has accelerated sharply. Awards grew from 4 in 2022 to 25 in 2024, with 16 awards in 2025 and 5 through April 2026. Combined potential value across all 150 awards (prime and sub) totals $7.6 million, with $5.8 million obligated to date. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal — only one award completion ($129 thousand) — meaning most of Sierra Circuits' DMEA work extends through mid-2026 or beyond.

In its subcontractor role, Sierra Circuits supplies PCBs, circuit card assemblies, and bare printed circuit board manufacturing to Lockheed Martin (NGI AUR development program, multiple printed wiring board and amplifier board deliveries, August 2023–October 2024), Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (SSN Advanced Sensors and Systems materials, September–November 2025), Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (bit-flip suppressed fluxonium gates research and development, bare printed circuit board manufacturing, May and August 2025), Triad National Security (Los Alamos National Laboratory electrical equipment and components, March 2025), and HRL Laboratories (STAR-FISH advanced research announcement carrier and testing services, August 2025). Sub work is predominantly defense R&D and space programs routed through large systems integrators rather than direct agency awards.

Across the prime and sub footprint, Sierra Circuits' work concentrates in bare printed circuit board manufacturing (80 awards) and printed circuit assembly (23 awards), with secondary exposure to research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences (25 awards). The company operates a single facility in Sunnyvale, California, and all named work is performed there.
