Alan M Noble

Alan M Noble supports the Defense Logistics Agency’s Distribution mission by managing critical procurement activities that ensure the reliable storage, handling, and global distribution of defense materiel. Though his official title is not listed, his role centers on executing acquisition strategies that sustain military readiness through efficient supply chain operations. He routinely handles contracts for facility maintenance, logistics support services, and specialized equipment procurement, aligning with DLA Distribution’s priorities in modernizing warehousing infrastructure and standardizing packaging for hazardous and sensitive items. His work directly enables the agency’s ability to deliver mission-critical supplies to warfighters worldwide. Noble maintains consistent working relationships with a core group of contractors including Constructicon Corp, Souza Construction, Inc., Martinez Services, Inc., SDC TideWater JV, LLC, and Kingsley Builders, Inc. These partnerships reflect a focus on construction, facility operations, and industrial maintenance services essential to sustaining DLA’s global distribution network. His procurement patterns indicate a preference for established vendors with proven capabilities in military-grade infrastructure and logistics support, suggesting a risk-averse approach grounded in operational reliability and compliance with defense standards. His contracting portfolio demonstrates a strong emphasis on small business participation, with over one-third of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. Additional awards are reserved for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses and HUBZone firms, reflecting a deliberate effort to promote socioeconomic diversity while maintaining mission effectiveness. While the majority of contracts remain open to all competitors, his consistent use of set-asides underscores a strategic commitment to expanding small business access within the defense logistics sector. Noble’s acquisitions are heavily concentrated in NAICS codes related to commercial and industrial machinery repair (811310), computer facilities management (541513), and communications equipment manufacturing (334220, 334310), indicating expertise in procuring technical services for logistics automation, facility systems maintenance, and communication infrastructure. His domain knowledge spans industrial maintenance, IT-enabled warehouse operations, and specialized equipment support critical to DLA’s mission-critical supply chain functions.
