What is the Tires Successor Initiative (TSI)?

The Tires Privatization Initiative (TPI), the predecessor to TSI, was established to comply with the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) statute. This statute required the disestablishment of the Department of Defense's wholesale supply, storage and distribution functions for tires. As a result, the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) awarded the Tire Privatization Initiative (TPI) contracts to industry for privatized supply chain and materiel support of the government’s demand for aircraft and ground tires.

TSI is the follow on contract and will provide tire support for the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marines, Navy and Foreign Military Services (FMS). The TSI Program consists of the TSI Contractor, Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) and multiple tire providers (manufacturers/dealers). The TSI Contractor will provide logistical support services, global demand planning and forecasting, order processing and fulfillment, purchasing (from government-directed sources/LTCs), finance and inventory management, CONUS storage and warehouse operations management, CONUS distribution and transportation, packaging, obsolescence management, data management, and customer support services. In order to fulfill tire demands, the TSI Contractor will be required to order tires from long term contracts awarded by the government directly to tire providers (manufacturers/dealers).

TSI is structured differently than the previous contract (Tires Privatization Initiative). The prior contract consisted of two different contracts, one for Ground tire NSN's and one for Aircraft NSN's. TSI was structured to have only one logistics provider supplying all tires under one contract. The overall tires mission has not changed, just the contractual structure.

This DLA privatization effort is designed to be seamless to the warfighter. The MILSTRIP ordering processes via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) will remain intact. DLA Land & Maritime will continue to work with SAIC to ensure there is no gap in customer support. Communications with customers during this process will be the key to creating a successful partnership.
