Alisa Mitchell

Alisa Mitchell serves as a key procurement professional within the Defense Logistics Agency Energy, responsible for managing critical energy infrastructure contracts that sustain operational readiness across Department of Defense installations. She specializes in the acquisition of electric power distribution services, ensuring reliable, resilient, and mission-critical utility support for military bases nationwide. Her work directly supports DLA Energy’s mandate to secure long-term energy solutions through strategic contracting, often involving complex public-private partnerships and infrastructure modernization initiatives. Mitchell handles full lifecycle procurements under FAR and DFARS guidelines, with a focus on performance-based service contracts that emphasize reliability, sustainability, and continuity of service. Her primary contractor relationships center on Qatar Fuel (WOQOD) and United Capital Investments Group, both of which provide specialized electric power distribution and utility infrastructure services. These partnerships reflect a preference for established, high-capacity vendors with proven experience in large-scale, mission-critical energy delivery systems. Mitchell’s contracting approach prioritizes technical proficiency, operational resilience, and long-term service performance over short-term cost savings, resulting in sustained engagements with a limited pool of highly qualified contractors who meet stringent DoD energy standards. Mitchell’s procurement portfolio exhibits no use of socioeconomic set-asides, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a strategic alignment with DLA Energy’s mission to prioritize technical capability and system reliability over socioeconomic preferences, ensuring that the most qualified providers—regardless of business size or certification—are selected based on performance and proven track record in complex energy infrastructure environments. Her primary focus is on NAICS 221122 (Electric Power Distribution), encompassing the procurement of grid modernization, substation upgrades, distribution line maintenance, and utility system integration services. She possesses deep expertise in technical specifications for military-grade power systems, including compliance with DoD energy security standards and interoperability requirements for mission-critical installations.
