# I am DLA

                Stanley Burns                            180901-D-YE683-024                            Stanley Burns            SHARE IMAGE:Download ImageImage DetailsPhoto By: Courtesy PhotoVIRIN: 180901-D-YE683-024**My Name is:**Stanley Burns**I am:**A quality assurance representative for DLA Energy Americas at Houston working in Virginia.**Describe your job in a sentence.**The Quality Assurance team ensures the critical quality support and oversight of bulk fuel procurement, storage depots, distribution contracts, into-plane fuel delivery, pipeline operating agreements and other chemical-related commodity contracts awarded by DLA Energy.**How long have you worked for DLA?**I started working for the Defense Energy Support Center while on a special assignment for the military. I became a member of the DLA quality family in 2004.**What is your favorite thing about working for DLA?**My favorite thing about working for DLA is the continuation or expansion of my government service and support to the military — being part of a synchronized team of subject matter experts who are all dedicated to mission success, whether it’s moving commodities for customers or humanitarian efforts after hours, on the weekends or during holidays.**What are your best memories of working here?**One of my best memories is when I deployed to Haiti in support of Operation Unified Response in 2010. I helped support the humanitarian effort by supplying the joint forces with fuel to support Haiti’s recovery from a devastating earthquake.**How do you make a difference?**My teammates and I provide direct guidance and support between DLA contracting, contractors and customers in support of the warfighter. I ensure contractors understand how to navigate and comply with DLA Energy quality requirements to ensure seamless supplies or services are provided and contractors are correctly compensated. I also help DLA Energy identify suppliers who do not meet DLA Energy customers’ supply or service requirements.
