The function of contract support integration is a part of which overarching system?

• A. OCS
• B. DLA
• C. LOGCAP
• D. Theater Support Center

Answer: (A)

Operational Contract Support is the framework that coordinates and managements all contracted resources in military operations. The function of contract support integration sits inside this system because it requires aligning contractor actions with the commander’s plan—planning, sourcing, contracting, performance oversight, and integration with the broader logistics and sustainment effort. This ensures contracted capabilities—whether goods, services, or specialized support—fit the mission, timeline, and risk considerations, and are managed under a unified governance structure.

DLA is the Army’s primary procurement and distribution agency, not the umbrella system that integrates contract support across operations. LOGCAP is a specific program that uses civilian contractors for theater-level logistics, not the overarching framework for coordinating all contracted support. The Theater Support Center is a logistics hub or node, not the system that governs contract support integration.
