How to buy engineering from a firm this size.

Computing America is a United States engineering firm selling software, instrumentation, managed IT and cybersecurity to public bodies. This page carries the part usually missing: the entity, the codes, which registrations exist today, and how work can be placed.

Where this stands

Registrations, including the ones that are not done.

This is a small firm and the page is written that way. Every registration below says where it actually stands, including the ones that say “not yet”, and no set-aside or socioeconomic certification is claimed anywhere on this site.

SAM.govIn progress

The federal entity registration. No federal award can be made without an active one.

Registration in progress. The UEI and CAGE will be published here the day they are issued.

Texas ESBD / CMBLNot yet

The Texas Electronic State Business Daily and the Centralized Master Bidders List, which is how state agencies solicit and how vendors are found.

Not yet registered.

HUB (Historically Underutilized Business)Not yet

A Texas state certification carrying participation goals on state contracts.

Not certified, not applied for, and not claimed anywhere on this site.

Codes

What this firm sells under.

One code per division, and each one links to the division that answers to it.

How to buy

Four routes, smallest first.

Smallest first is the useful order rather than the flattering one: the card threshold is where a relationship with a firm this size realistically starts, and it produces the past-performance record everything else gets easier with.

  1. 01

    Purchase card, under the micro-purchase threshold

    The fastest route and usually the first. No proposal, no evaluation, and it produces the past-performance record everything below gets easier with.

  2. 02

    Simplified acquisition

    Above the card, below full competition. A quote against a statement of work, which is the shape most of this firm’s work already takes.

  3. 03

    Subcontract or teaming

    As a subcontractor to a prime already holding the vehicle. Often right where our scope is one part of a larger programme.

  4. 04

    State and local solicitation

    Directly, under the relevant state or municipal code, once the registrations above are complete.

Credentials

Held on staff, and nothing else.

Standards this firm builds to are listed on the engineering page and are deliberately not here: a page a contracting officer reads should carry only what an issuing body has actually granted.

  • CompTIA Security+

    Held on staff, DoDM 8140.03 approved

  • CompTIA PenTest+

    Held on staff, offensive security practice

  • GIAC GFACT

    Foundational cybersecurity technologies

  • Red Hat RH124

    Course completion, system administration; plus academy instruction

  • CISA ICS 301V / 100W

    Course completions, industrial control systems cybersecurity

  • TEEX DHS-certified

    DHS-certified course completions: digital forensics, incident response, network assurance, IoT

Documents

Take the page with you.

The one-pagers a buyer forwards internally. Each is a single page, in the standard format, and none of them says anything this site does not.

Next step

Tell us what you are trying to buy.

A conversation about scope before a solicitation exists is the cheapest one either of us will have. If a code above is not the right one, say so and we will tell you whether this is work we should be bidding.
