Boeing Seals $15B Follow-On Deal for US Military Platform Supply Chain Services; Dan Gillian Quoted

Boeing (NYSE: BA) has closed on a 10-year, $15 billion contract with the Defense Logistics Agency to extend the company’s supply chain support for U.S. military platforms.

The company said Monday it will continue to help DLA manage parts and logistics processes for the sustainment of aircraft such as F-15 Eagle, F/A-18 Hornet, KC-46 Pegasus and AH-64 Apache.

Dan Gillian, vice president of U.S. government services at Boeing, said the company seeks to connect its analytics technology with customer data to better forecast logistical needs and support the defense supply chain.

The follow-on award marks the company’s second contract under the Captains of Industry program, which DLA created to pool common hardware requirements.
