# DLA’s director of small business programs to co-lead federal council

/ Published Aug. 29, 2023
FORT BELVOIR, Va., 
A Defense Logistics Agency leader was unanimously selected as vice chairman for the Federal Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization Directors Interagency Council.

Dwight Deneal, DLA’s director of small business programs, will serve in the role through fiscal 2024. The group, which includes small business advocates from the Defense Department and federal agencies such as the Department of State, meets monthly to share best practices and discuss issues affecting America’s small businesses.

“DOD is very focused on supporting warfighters, but we all share the same pool of vendors,” Deneal said, adding that the U.S. president has an ambitious agenda to drive small business contracting forward. “We are all facing the same concerns of meeting that initiative.”

As vice chairman, Deneal plans to renew council members’ understanding that they must work together to drive the industrial base forward.

“If you think about where we are now in today’s time with a decline in our industrial base, it’s even more critical that we have strong small business leaders who understand acquisition policies and procedures and who support the growth of our industrial base by partnering together,” he said.

Deneal said collaboration can lead to opportunities that advance whole-of-government missions and support vendors. A shared outreach initiative with the Department of Veterans Affairs and Health and Human Services, for example, could help strengthen alliances between medical vendors and federal supply chain experts, he added. Another possibility: targeted outreach by DOD elements that all support aging weapons systems.

DLA’s inclusion of surge clauses in contracts that involve supplies and services typically needed during disaster relief and humanitarian assistance is one example of the agency’s contracting success that Deneal highlights for fellow small business leaders.

“These clauses help our vendor base understand they’re not just signing up for a step-and-repeat type of support. If there’s a crisis or war, we need them to scale the volume to match emerging needs,” he said. “I try to help others in this community understand what that looks like and how we get our small vendor base to sign up for that.”

Deneal also learns about contracting strategies from other agencies that could potentially support DLA’s mission as well as upcoming changes in small business policy. Annual National Defense Authorization Act bills typically include updates on government spending goals in the small business sector.

“Being ahead of the curve on potential policy changes helps me keep DLA leadership and DLA acquisition executives informed of things that might impact us,” Deneal added. “From my perspective, that’s one of the many benefits my participation offers to DLA.” 

Deneal has been involved with the council since he became a small business advocate in 2014. He is in line to become chairman in fiscal 2025.

District of North Carolina, at Greensboro. James A. Beaty, Jr.,

District Judge. (CR-97-91, CA-01-845)

Submitted: May 30, 2002 Decided: June 10, 2002

PER CURIAM:

Nelson Eddy Walker seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.

2001). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the

district court. See United States v. Walker, Nos CR-97-91; CA-01-

845 (M.D.N.C. Mar. 8, 2002). We dispense with oral argument

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

#### In the Matter of Jacqueline Bethea, Petitioner, v Sheila J. Poole, Respondent.

[51 NYS3d 503]

Determination of respondent, dated April 18, 2014, which, upon findings that petitioner had committed maltreatment of a child and that such maltreatment is relevant and reasonably related to child-care employment, adoption of a child, or the provision of foster care, denied the petitioner’s request that the indicated report against her be amended to unfounded and sealed, unanimously confirmed, the petition denied, and the proceeding brought pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court by order of the Supreme Court, New York County [Peter H. Moulton, J.]; entered on or about Jan. 30, 2015), dismissed, without costs.

The determination is supported by substantial evidence *(see Matter of Consolidated Edison Co. of N.Y. v New York State Div. of Human Rights,*77 NY2d 411, 417 [1991]) showing that petitioner, a foster parent to the child, had maltreated the child by poking the child with her fist and verbally abusing the child *(see Matter of Justin A. [Derek C.],*133 AD3d 1106, 1107-1108 [3d Dept 2015], *lv denied*27 NY3d 904 [2016]). The Administrative Law Judge providently found that because of the child’s post-traumatic stress disorder and mild mental retardation, petitioner’s actions put the child at risk of emotional impairment (see *Nicholson v Scoppetta,*3 NY3d 357, 370 [2004]; see *also*18 NYCRR 432.1 [b] [1]).

Petitioner’s remaining contentions, to the extent preserved for our review, are unavailing.

# Black History Month Spotlight:  Zita Oubre

/ Published Feb. 26, 2021
Richmond, Va. , 
A Feb. 3  Presidential Proclamation on National Black History Month calls “on the American people to honor the history and achievements of Black Americans and to reflect on the centuries of struggle that have brought us to this time of reckoning, redemption, and hope.”

This year’s theme, “The Black Family: Representation, Identity, and Diversity” was provided by Association for the Study of African American Life and History, the founders of Black History   (asalh.org)

Defense Logistics Agency Aviation spotlights Zita Oubre, who shares what the celebration of Black History Month means to her.

**Name, Title/location:**Zita Oubre, management analyst, DLA Aviation at San Diego

**How long have you worked for DLA?** Since 2010

**What does the 2021 Black History Month mean to you?**

It is a time for the Black/African American communities to remember and unify in celebrating the beauty, strength, resilience and richness of our culture.

**What misconception about your heritage or country of origin would you like to correct?**

Don’t use the hues of our skin as a barometer of whether or not you’ll stare at me concerningly when I enter a store, or if you consider me beautiful or intelligent.  We have character and merit, just not afforded equal opportunities and accesses based merely on skin pigment.  Moreover, it shouldn’t take a movement for you to love your neighbor as yourself.

**Tell us a little known fact that most people do not know about you.**

Even though I’ll complain about the distance, I really enjoy exploring different hiking trails.

**How important is it to you that Defense Logistics Agency Aviation recognize this month?**

It is absolutely key, DLA is a notable DoD agency. If we want better, we have to do better and the best way of doing that is through exemplifying the change we want to see.  Typically, if it is not from the top down, it loses validation of sending the message that this is of importance.

**What do you want the DLA Aviation workforce to take away from celebrating this particular month?** Understanding cultures helps working relationship dynamics. Knowing our history helps us to “really” appreciate how we got to where we are today and how we move forward tomorrow. I’ll never forget we had an on-site BHM event and an employee basically shared they never really knew what Dr. Martin Luther King did for us.  It really shocked me because at that moment, I realized this is what happens when you don’t share it and remove it from curriculum, home discussions and work.  If not for Dr.  King’s non-violent commitment to equality and justice, we would not be coworkers, sitting in the same room, doing the same jobs for the same pay and in reality, we couldn’t even be friends because it would be unacceptable. Too many lives, known and unknown, were sacrificed, not to be celebrated!
# Combined Federal Campaign kicks off in Battle Creek

/ Published Oct. 6, 2023
BATTLE CREEK, Mich., 
The Combined Federal Campaign kickoff event was held on Oct. 3 in Battle Creek, Michigan, as employees gathered in the Palm Garden Room at the Hart-Dole-Inouye Federal Center to learn how to make charitable donations.

The 2023 campaign theme is “Give Happy” which encourages employees to willingly donate to charities that they care about. 

“Going along with the theme ‘Give Happy’ this year, they say giving happiness helps you receive happiness,” DLA employee and CFC Keyworker Paul Ganem said.

The CFC is one of the oldest fundraising campaigns in the world.  The effort began in 1961, the same founding year of the Defense Logistics Agency.  Since its inception, federal employees have donated more than 8.6 billion dollars.  This year’s annual donation goal for DLA is $23,340, which is a 10% increase from the amount raised in 2022.

Benefits of giving through the CFC include the ease of payroll deduction, the ability to give to multiple causes at once, and being able to make a collective impact. 

There are thousands of vetted charities to choose from and there are four ways for employees to donate:
      - Online:  www.GiveCFC.org
      - Paper Pledge: Submit the form to your keyworker
      - Text “DONATE” to 978-487-5678
      - Donate via the CFC Giving App

One-time and year-round donations are accepted. In addition, employees can pledge to donate volunteer hours in lieu of funds to help at many non-profit organizations and local charities.

Through the Combined Federal Campaign, DLA employees can change the world one donation at a time said HDIFC CFC Campaign Manager Bill Jerome.

                             FOR EXECUTIVE OFFICERS



    F5 Networks has established an incentive compensation plan for executive
officers. The plan provides for targeted bonuses set at a percentage of base
salary and payable subject to achievement of performance metrics. The percentage
of base salary may vary among the executive officers and may be increased above
the target if the performance metrics are exceeded. The performance metrics are
as follows.

    50% of the incentive compensation is based on successfully achieving a
quarterly revenue goal.  50% is based on achieving a quarterly EBITDA goal.

    The quarterly revenue and EBITDA goals are set periodically by the Board of
Directors.

PAYMENT TERMS

    The incentive compensation is paid linearly above 80% of targeted goals.
(i.e.: 80% of the possible incentive compensation will be paid for revenues at
80% of goal, 90% is paid for revenues at 90% of goal.) Both goals must hit 100%
for the increase above target to apply. No incentive compensation will be paid
for results less than 80% of goals. If earned, payments will be made quarterly.
