CSA Awarded Contract to Provide Contract Management Services to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA)



November 15, 2010 – Mechanicsburg, PA — Client Solution Architects, LLC, (CSA) has been awarded a one year prime contract with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation Strategic Support organization in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This DLA organization was formed as a result of the decision by the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission of 2005 to consolidate the procurement functions of each military service into DLA. Under this contract, CSA’s Contracts Management service line will be providing audit and analytic services to the DLA in an effort to support the DLA’s post award contracting requirement.

“DLA has experienced significant growth in their contracting workload as a result of the 2005 BRAC decision. The audit and analysis of contracts and orders is a vital component to maintaining the DLA’s commitment to ensuring they meet their goals of providing on-time delivery of aircraft repair parts to the warfighter”, said Mike Beliveau, Senior Manager at CSA. “Our focus at CSA will be to analyze DLA’s post award data, and develop an accurate baseline metric for past-due deliveries.”
