What we build

Every system is specified to the workload rather than sold from a fixed catalog, then assembled and burn-in tested in our Los Angeles facility. We are the manufacturer, not a reseller, so configuration, warranty and support all run through a single accountable party.

VRLA Tech custom AI workstation tower, built and burn-in tested in Los Angeles
  • Multi-GPU AI workstationsTwo to four GPU systems on AMD Threadripper PRO and Intel Xeon platforms for model training, fine-tuning and local LLM inference.
  • Rackmount GPU servers4U and 5U configurations with IPMI, redundant power and 10GbE for shared lab and cluster deployment.
  • HPC and scientific computingECC memory, redundant power supplies and 24/7 duty-cycle builds for continuously running research workloads.
  • On-premise and air-gapped systemsSized so sensitive and controlled data never leaves the institution.
  • Workload-specific configurationSizing and validation against your actual software stack before we issue a quote.
  • Lifecycle supportThree-year warranty, lifetime engineer access, and parts availability planning across multi-year grant and program cycles.

Buying without a contract vehicle

The most common question we get from federal buyers is whether they can purchase from us without a GSA schedule. For the great majority of workstation and server purchases, yes.

$15,000
Micro-purchase threshold
At or below this, agencies can buy directly, commonly on a government purchase card, which we accept.
$350,000
Simplified acquisition threshold
Between the two figures, agencies may use the lighter procedures of FAR Part 13 rather than full and open competition.

Most single workstations and many multi-GPU servers fall inside these ranges, which means a purchase order or purchase card is usually sufficient. We issue written, requisition-ready quotes for either route and respond to RFQs directly.

Thresholds are adjusted periodically and some categories carry different limits, so confirm the figures that apply to your acquisition against FAR 2.101. For larger or recurring requirements, contact us and we will work with your contracting office on the appropriate approach.

Request a quote or send us an RFQ

Send a specification, a requisition draft, or a description of the workload. We return a written quote with configuration, pricing, lead time and warranty terms.
