ARLINGTON, VA – CACI International Inc., a provider of information technology for national security, intelligence and e-government, has been awarded a $54.8 million, five-year blanket purchase agreement to support the Defense Medical Logistics Standard Support-Defense Logistics Agency program. CACI will provide professional services and information technology to help manage medical supplies and services for military forces worldwide.

DMLSS, based in Falls Church, Va., is a partnership involving the wholesale medical logistics, medical information management, medical information technology and user communities.

The Defense Logistics Agency, or DLA, is the Department of Defense’s largest combat support agency, providing worldwide logistics support to the military as well as several civilian agencies and foreign countries. DLA is based at Fort Belvoir in Northern Virginia.  

The DMLSS mission is to modernize the military healthcare logistics supply chain, with DLA providing the software development capability to continually maintain and update DMLSS technology tools and systems.

The DMLSS-DLA program primarily supports DLA’s Defense Supply Center Philadelphia Directorate of Medical Materiel, which performs worldwide medical supply chain management for the Defense Department.

CACI is already supporting DMLSS-DLA on other contracts, and the company expects to compete for expansions in the size and scope of this work. With this award, CACI officials said the company continues to increase its logistics and material readiness capabilities and its growth as a provider of healthcare logistics solutions for the Department of Defense.
