How Does DLA Procurement Work?
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) manages millions of NSNs and buys parts from suppliers around the world through RFQs, contracts and long-term agreements.
High-level flow
- A requirement is created for a specific NSN and quantity.
- DLA issues an RFQ/RFP via its portals.
- Suppliers submit pricing, lead time and terms.
- DLA evaluates price, delivery and technical acceptability.
- An order or contract is awarded and fulfilled.
