Rapid Acquisition and Contingency Contracts


Supporting the Warfighter through accelerated logistics and integrated supply chains . . .

Defense Contingency ContractsPartnet is applying its Government eCommerce expertise to improve the Defense Logistics Agency's (DLA) contingency sourcing and procurement capabilities.

Currently, manual execution of contingency contracts and purchasing often slows military responsiveness to foreign and domestic disasters; armed military conflicts; training scenarios; and other contingency missions. The ability to quickly and cost-effectively source and supply these missions is critical to DOD's logistical readiness.

Partnet is the IT-solutions provider helping DLA institutionalize this Contingency Contract and Rapid Acquisition capability. Partnet is working with DLA and other Federal stakeholders to design a new Government eCommerce system offering the following features:

  • Automated processes enabling contingency contracts with global vendors and local suppliers.
  • Enhanced asset visibility and supply chain inventory management.
  • Automated enforcement of Federal purchasing rules and international trade regulations.
  • Comprehensive online marketplace linking military buyers and vendors.
  • Cross-commodity purchasing and consolidated delivery.
