# DLA Awards Leidos $95M ELMS Support

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) awarded incumbent contractor Leidos a five-year, $95 million contract to continue supporting and modernizing the Enterprise Logistics Management System (ELMS) through August 2031. The work applies AI automation, cloud technology, and modern software development practices to a system tracking more than 80 million government property items valued at over $140 billion. This is a continuation award, not an open solicitation; the related industry engagement opportunity identified is the Potomac Officers Club’s 2027 Artificial Intelligence Summit on March 18.

- The award includes a base year and four option years, extending Leidos’ longstanding role in ELMS support.
- Procurement teams and contractors can use the scope as an indicator of DLA’s continued investment in AI-enabled logistics, cloud technology, and software modernization.
- Because this is an incumbent award rather than an open competition, companies should not treat the $95 million action as a current bid opportunity; the cited March 18, 2027 summit is a separate venue for industry engagement.
