Government & Defense Contract Printing | FAR & DFARS Aware Printing Partner
CenTex Printing, Inc. is a commercial printing company registered in SAM.gov and eligible to support federal agencies, prime contractors, and subcontractors. We provide reliable print production for organizations operating within structured procurement environments, including those governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS).
Our focus is straightforward: deliver consistent, high-quality printed materials while aligning with the requirements defined within each contract. We understand that in government and defense-related work, clarity, documentation, and process matter just as much as the final product.
Supporting FAR-Based Contracts
Federal contracts often include FAR clauses that influence how work is handled, documented, and delivered. These requirements vary depending on the scope of the project, which is why we approach each job individually rather than applying a one-size-fits-all process.
When applicable, we review and align with relevant FAR provisions such as:
-
FAR 52.204-21 (Basic safeguarding of covered contractor information systems)
-
Buy American and domestic sourcing requirements
-
Record retention and audit documentation standards
-
Subcontractor flow-down obligations
We recognize that compliance is not a blanket certification—it is defined by what is written into the contract. Our role is to understand those requirements upfront and ensure our production process supports them where applicable.
DFARS Awareness & Defense Subcontracting
For Department of Defense-related projects, DFARS clauses may introduce additional layers of responsibility, particularly around cybersecurity and safeguarding of information.
When DFARS provisions are incorporated into a contract, we evaluate requirements such as:
-
DFARS 252.204-7012 (Safeguarding Covered Defense Information)
-
DFARS 252.204-7019 and 7020 (NIST SP 800-171 assessment requirements)
-
Domestic sourcing and material restrictions
We maintain internal documentation and structured processes intended to support contracts that include these provisions. When needed, we coordinate directly with prime contractors or compliance teams to confirm expectations before production begins.
Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) Handling
Certain government and defense-related projects involve Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), which requires additional safeguards beyond standard commercial printing workflows.
Our processes are structured to support sensitive work, including:
-
Controlled digital file handling procedures
-
Limited-access production workflows
-
Segmented job handling for sensitive materials
-
Documented incident response planning
Each project is evaluated individually to determine whether CUI requirements apply. When they do, we confirm handling expectations with the contracting organization prior to production to ensure alignment.

Government Printing Capabilities
We support a wide range of print applications commonly required in government and defense-related environments. These materials often demand consistency, durability, and clear documentation.
Our capabilities include:
-
technical manuals printing for operations, maintenance, and field use
-
industrial labels and barcode printing for tracking, inventory, and compliance
-
compliance labels and warning decals for regulated environments
-
Instruction sheets and packaging inserts
-
Program documentation and printed materials
Whether the requirement is high-volume documentation or specialized labeling, our production setup allows for consistent output with reliable turnaround times.
Operational Reliability & Documentation
Government and defense-related work often requires more than just producing a finished piece. It requires traceability, consistency, and the ability to document how work was completed.
We operate with an emphasis on:
-
Repeatable production processes
-
Clear job tracking and documentation
-
Consistent file handling procedures
-
Defined workflows for different project types
This structured approach allows us to support organizations that need a printing partner capable of operating within defined contract expectations.
