Defense Contract Management Agency - DCMA

DCMA

On March 27 2000, DCMC was renamed as the Defense Contract Management Agency and established independently from DLA. DoD Directive 5105.64 formally established the purpose and mission of DCMA and, save for specific exceptions detailed in DFARS, all DoD activities are required to delegate contract administration functions to DCMA.

The DCMA headquarters moved from northern Virginia to Fort Lee, Va., as part of the federal 2005 Base Realignment and Closure process. The new headquarters was dedicated as Herbert Homer Hall on Sept. 15, 2011. Homer was a DCMA employee killed in the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

The current director is Mr. Charlie E. Williams, Jr.
