Defence Storage and Distribution Agency

Defence Storage and Distribution Agency

The Defence Storage and Distribution Agency was an executive agency of the Government of the United Kingdom under the Ministry of Defence. Its chief executive was Neil Firth.[1] The DSDA operated from locations in the United Kingdom and northern Germany and was the storage and distribution arm of the Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) organisation.[2] The role of the Agency was to store, maintain, issue, process and distribute materiel for the MoD and other designated users.[2]

From 1 August 2010 DSDA became one of a number of Joint Support Chain Teams within DE&S and is no longer an executive agency of the MoD.[3]
