Set-aside preferences for this office show a primary reliance on full and open competition, with no set-aside requirements applied to the majority of procurements. There is a secondary focus on Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, and a small percentage of acquisitions are conducted as single-source procurements where only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. The procurement focus is heavily concentrated in high-precision electronics and aerospace manufacturing. Primary technical domains include bare printed circuit board manufacturing and aircraft engine and engine parts manufacturing. Additional activity is centered on printed circuit assembly, other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment, and the manufacturing of gaskets, packing, and sealing devices.
