MICC contract support for Soldiers exceeds $5B in fiscal 2018

By Daniel. P. Elkins Mission and Installation Contracting Command Public Affairs Office

Contracting members from the Mission and Installation Contracting Command, headquartered at San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston, administered and executed contract actions valued at more than $5 billion in support of Soldiers and their families in fiscal 2018.

The command's two brigades, two field directorate offices, 30 contracting offices and nine battalions executed a combined 29,795 contract actions valued at $4,985,927,284 while also administering 499,299 Government Purchase Card transactions worth more than $726.7 million for the fiscal year.

Contracting members awarded contracts in support of Army commands, installations and activities across the country through the final hours of the government fiscal year, which came to a close Sept. 30. This included approximately $7.4 million in last-minute contract requirements in support of the Installation Management Command to address storm damage from Hurricane Florence that battled the eastern seaboard in September.

"Army acquisition professionals and our contracted partners share the tremendous responsibility of equipping and enabling the warfighter," said Brig. Gen. Bill Boruff, MICC commanding general. "That capability extends to responding at a moment's notice to emerging requirements and further demonstrates the caliber of professionalism our civilian and uniformed workforce embodies day in and day out in support of Army."

The MICC also met all five of its small-business socioeconomic goals in fiscal 2018 for the fourth consecutive year. The MICC Small Business Programs workforce consists of specialists around the country representing small business interests. They conduct outreach events to inform industry representatives of installation requirements to ensure their maximum opportunity to compete for Army contracts.
