ST. LOUIS, June 11, 2007 — Graybar, a leading distributor of communications and electrical products and related supply chain management and logistics services, has announced it has been awarded a one-year contract renewal with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) valued at an estimated $74 million. The U.S. Department of Defense made the announcement May 16.
Under the Prime Vendor Contract, Graybar provides maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) supplies and related services to the U.S. Military and federal civilian agencies in the DLA Southwest Region — Zone 1, which includes Nevada and California. This is the first DLA contract renewal for Graybar this year.
Graybar was one of seven companies that originally competed for the contract and was the incumbent contract holder for this region. Graybar has been serving the DLA Southwest Region — Zone 1 since 1998.
“We have been providing first-class service and support to our DLA customers in the Southwest region for nearly ten years and look forward to continuing to do so,” commented John Mansfield, vice president-corporate accounts, Graybar. “The longevity of this relationship is a true testament to our dedication to working to our customer’s advantage.”
In addition to its DLA contracts, Graybar holds contracts with the General Services Administration (GSA) and U.S. Communities through which government buyers can purchase products and distribution services from Graybar.
