PROCUREMENT STRATEGIES FOR THE MODERN-DAY WARFIGHTER

Effective and efficient procurement for an organization as large and complex as the U.S. military is notoriously difficult. Keeping the active duty and reserve military of over two million service members supplied is also a challenge.

ADS is a government contractor whose entire business model was designed around making your job easier. Our roots started more than 20 years ago when we began outfitting Navy SEALs with quality dive equipment in an efficient manner. Our mission continues today as we manage 65+ contract vehicles, 3,000 supplier partnerships, and over 50,000 products.


TAILORED LOGISTIC SUPPLY PROGRAMS (TLSP)

We work with DLA every day.

Men With Cylinders on Their Back Trying to Diffuse Fire

ADS is a participating vendor in the Special Operational Equipment (SOE) TLS program. This dynamic DLA contract offers all military services and federal agencies access to the latest commercial off-the- shelf equipment and incidental services.

  • On-time deliveries and dedicated customer support
  • Managed with strict government oversight under an audit ready process with coordination between your finance office and DLA
  • All orders are processed using MILSTRIP requisitions or Military Interdepartmental Purchase Requests (MIPRs)

"“Working with ADS and utilizing the DLA TLS Program has truly been easy compared to the usual contracting procedure. ADS supports each request from ‘cradle to grave,’ ensuring we are updated as each step of the TLS Program occurs.”"
