Matthew D. Deptuch

Matthew Deptuch serves as a procurement specialist within the Defense Logistics Agency’s Energy Directorate (SPE605), responsible for managing critical energy supply contracts that sustain global military operations. He oversees the acquisition of petroleum-based fuels, natural gas, and associated logistics infrastructure, ensuring mission-critical readiness across all DoD branches. His work centers on long-term, performance-based contracts with a focus on secure, resilient fuel supply chains, often involving complex international logistics and just-in-time delivery frameworks. Deptuch’s acquisitions are highly specialized, requiring deep technical understanding of refinery operations and fuel distribution networks to meet stringent military specifications. His primary contractor relationships are anchored with Qatar Fuel (WOQOD) and United Capital Investments Group, both of which provide large-scale fuel procurement, storage, and transportation services under long-term indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) mechanisms. These partnerships reflect a strategic reliance on established international energy suppliers with proven capacity to meet DoD’s global operational tempo. Deptuch’s contracting approach emphasizes performance metrics, supply chain transparency, and contractual compliance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) requirements for energy security. Deptuch’s procurement portfolio exhibits no set-aside preferences, with 100% of awards issued under full and open competition. This reflects a mission-driven priority to secure the most reliable and scalable energy solutions, prioritizing operational continuity over socioeconomic contracting categories. While small business participation is not formally targeted, all awards adhere to statutory requirements for fair and open competition. His expertise is concentrated in NAICS 324110 (Petroleum Refineries), indicating a singular focus on upstream fuel production and refining services. He procures refined petroleum products, bulk fuel handling systems, and associated logistics support—domain knowledge that requires familiarity with ASTM fuel standards, hazardous material handling protocols, and energy infrastructure resilience standards.
