# DLA operations leader describes supply chain resilience for COVID-19

/ Published June 15, 2020
FORT BELVOIR, Va., 
Multiple customers rushing to buy finite supplies was one of the Defense Logistics Agency’s biggest challenges in its COVID-19 response, the agency’s executive director of operations said during a June 11 virtual panel discussion on supply chain resilience. 

As the pandemic spread from China and U.S. Indo-Pacific Command to the United States, demand for DLA supplies far exceeded projections, Dave Kless told viewers of the Potomac Officers Club event. 

DLA works with the military services to continually refine anticipated demands for medical equipment, but Kless said the pandemic ignited new demands from across the Defense Department as well as whole-of-government partners. There was a lot of ambiguity in how to treat COVID-19 as it spread, he continued. “So early on, the demand we were receiving was for the total population, not a subset of medical personnel.”

Requirements for N95 masks increased by 3,500% between Feb. 1 and May 30 while demand for nasal testing swabs rose 876%. Like other federal agencies, DLA scrambled to increase production by a manufacturing base that was also struggling to cope with the effects of the coronavirus. About 692 vendors closed at the peak, significantly impacting the clothing and textiles industry, which Kless said has shrunk by about 90% in recent years. 

As clothing and textiles vendors in Puerto Rico reopened, the agency worked with them to shift production to increase personal protective equipment like masks. But even hardware and aviation communities had significant layoffs that resulted in a ripple effect across national supply chains, he added. 

“What we quickly saw in this pandemic was our traditional domestic suppliers could not keep up with global demand, and that global demand was not only to our DOD partners and combatant commands,” he said. “The nation looked for leveraging those same suppliers.” 

The Berry Amendment and Buy American Act require DLA to use domestic sources, but Domestic Non-Availability Determinations allow the agency to perform market research for global resources when domestic sources fall short. The agency has 11 DNADs for personal protective equipment to help it replenish the Strategic National Stockpile and DOD inventories, Kless said, but DLA will also continue seeking domestic sources. 

DLA balances the speed and cost of providing common supplies by leveraging the commercial sector to provide them rather than storing them in warehouses. It’s Warstopper Program also helps speed access to critical go-to-war supplies the services identify as being at risk for becoming scarce due to resource and industrial limitations, he said. Warstopper inventory, which vendors maintain and rotate so it remains fresh, enabled DLA to provide almost 3 million N95 masks for COVID-19.

“That then allowed these companies to focus on the national demand,” Kless said, adding that DLA also saw increased additive manufacturing from companies producing items like face shields for first responders.

#### The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Dane Simpson, Appellant.

[55 NYS3d 662]

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Westchester County (Adler, J.), rendered July 3, 2013, convicting him of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant validly waived his right to appeal *(see People v Farmer,*123 AD3d 735 [2014]). His challenge to the factual sufficiency of the plea allocution is precluded by the valid waiver of his right to appeal *(see People v Smith,*146 AD3d 904 [2017]; *People v Duchatellier,*138 AD3d 887 [2016]; *People v Dame,*100 AD3d 1032 [2012]).

The defendant’s valid waiver of his right to appeal does not preclude our review of the defendant’s challenge to the legality of his sentence as a second violent felony offender *(see People v Seaberg,*74 NY2d 1, 9 [1989]; *People v Helmus,*125 AD3d 884 [2015]). However, the contention is unpreserved for appellate review *(see People v Ehrenberg,*236 AD2d 420 [1997]; *cf. People v Samms,*95 NY2d 52 [2000]) and, in any event, without merit *(see*Penal Law § 70.04 [1] [b] [v]; *People v Meckwood,*20 NY3d 69, 73 [2012]).

# ‘Incredible, dedicated’ employees honored at Women’s History Month event

/ Published March 12, 2021
Philadelphia, 
Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support employees celebrated the historical and organizational accomplishments of women during a virtual Women’s History Month event, March 10.

“It is my pleasure to be here with you today to celebrate the achievements of women and honor their courage, strength and sacrifice, which are woven into the fabric of this great nation,” said Army Brig. Gen. Gavin Lawrence, DLA Troop Support Commander.

Guest speaker Barbara Harrison, an award-winning journalist, TV producer and news anchor, highlighted this year’s theme “Valiant Women of the Vote: Refusing to be Silenced” with anecdotes from the women’s suffrage movement.

Harrison read excerpts of human rights activist Sojourner Truth’s speech, “Ain’t I a Woman?” delivered at the 1851 Women’s Convention in Akron, Ohio.

“And ain't I a woman?” Harrison recited. “I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?”

The sacrifices and perseverance of women throughout history echoed through Harrison’s presentation as she described the inception of Women’s History Week in 1982, then the expansion to a month of celebration by Congress in 1987.

In addition to the historical celebration of women’s achievements, DLA Troop Support employees were honored for their exemplary models of public service and government leadership, Lawrence said.

“Women in our organization play a pivotal role in our mission success,” he said. “At all levels and in all offices throughout Troop Support, women continue to make significant contributions resulting in superior warfighter support.”

The following individuals were honored for their contributions to the advancement of women, and winners in the below respective categories:

**Non-Supervisory employees, GS-9 and below**

Debbie Izes, Command

**Non-Supervisory employees, GS-11 and above**

Brieanne Moody, Construction and Equipment

#### East 26th Street & Park Avenue Realty, L.L.C., Respondent, v Shaw Industries, Inc., et al., and Defendants, HRH Construction Corporation, Appellant.

[767 NYS2d 775]

Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Jane Solomon, J.), entered October 9, 2002, which, to the extent appealed from as limited by the briefs, upon renewal, reinstated the earlier-dismissed complaint against HRH Construction Corporation and granted leave to amend the complaint, unanimously affirmed, with costs.

Newly discovered facts, not available at the time of general contractor HRH’s prior dismissal motion, would have altered the determination on that motion (CPLR 2221 [e] [2]). Plaintiff provided reasonable justification for failure to present such facts on the prior motion (CPLR 2221 [e] [3]), in light of recent deposition testimony disclosing that HRH had concealed the manner in which the carpeting had been damaged, and frustrated plaintiffs efforts, after its installation, to determine the cause of the damage.

We have considered HRH’s remaining contentions and find them unavailing. Concur—Buckley, P.J., Andrias, Saxe, Williams and Gonzalez, JJ.
No. 10-80.
