Contracts Explained – Review of DLA’s TLS Program
The TLS Program allows the U.S. Military, U.S. Federal Agencies, and
part-numbered items through DLA Prime Vendors.
The 6 Prime Vendors are eligible to participate in the SOE contract. When a request is submitted for a specific product, DLA will contact the 6 Prime vendors who will request a price quote from the manufacturers in their respective networks before responding back to the DLA with their best price and lead time. This allows the end- user to benefit from the Prime vendor’s pre-established relationships and secure favorable pricing. The Special Operational Equipment (SOE) Program facilitated by the DLA through the TLS Program, enables customers to order commercial, off-the-shelf part numbered items within the scope of the contract. Since multiple vendors are solicited for prices, customers benefit from a competitive business model that will ensure the best value for the customer.

Contracts Explained – Order Flow – Win Mechanism
