Rochelle Adams

Rochelle Adams serves as the primary contracting professional for DLA Energy, responsible for executing strategic acquisitions that ensure the uninterrupted flow of critical energy resources to support global military operations. She manages a diverse portfolio of contracts centered on fuel logistics, storage infrastructure, and environmental remediation services, aligning with DLA Energy’s mission to sustain readiness across all U.S. military branches. Her acquisitions are designed to secure resilient supply chains, optimize contractor performance, and maintain operational continuity under dynamic global conditions, with a strong emphasis on compliance with federal procurement regulations and mission-critical delivery timelines. Adams maintains key contracting relationships with Qatar Fuel (WOQOD) and United Capital Investments Group, both of which provide essential fuel supply and logistics support. These partnerships are characterized by long-term, performance-based agreements that emphasize reliability, global reach, and operational flexibility. While these two entities dominate her contractor landscape, she also engages with a broader network of specialized vendors to ensure redundancy and geographic diversity in fuel distribution networks, reinforcing the agency’s strategic imperatives for supply chain security. A defining feature of Adams’ contracting approach is her exclusive reliance on Total Small Business Set-Aside authorities under FAR 19.5, reflecting a robust commitment to socioeconomic contracting. Every acquisition she manages is structured to maximize opportunities for small businesses, ensuring equitable access to defense energy contracts and fostering a competitive, inclusive vendor base. This pattern underscores DLA Energy’s institutional priority to empower small businesses as critical partners in national defense logistics. Her primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 493190 (Other Warehousing and Storage) and NAICS 562910 (Remediation Services), indicating deep expertise in fuel storage facility management, underground storage tank compliance, and environmental cleanup operations. She procures specialized services including fuel handling systems, tank integrity assessments, and contaminated site remediation—critical capabilities that support both operational readiness and environmental stewardship across military installations worldwide.
