Award reinforces Sphera’s leadership in chemical lifecycle management across the Department of War and NASA
CHICAGO, IL – (March 12, 2026) – Sphera today announced the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) has awarded Sphera a five-year, sole-source contract to deliver and sustain the Hazardous Materials Management System (HMMS) in support of the Department of War (DoW) and associated federal agencies.
This award follows Sphera’s recent announcement that HMMS would be deployed across the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) operations and serve as the agency-wide standard for hazardous material management.
Under the contract, Sphera will deliver, sustain and modernize the HMMS suite — strengthening chemical lifecycle management, improving data integrity, and enhancing enterprise visibility across the U.S. federal government’s defense and aerospace operations worldwide.
“This award is a testament to the trust our customers place in Sphera and our ability to deliver mission-critical solutions with precision and accountability,” said Paul Marushka, CEO and president of Sphera. “Our expertise in chemical lifecycle management and regulatory intelligence enables us to support some of the most demanding operational environments in the world. We are proud to continue partnering with the DLA to advance modernization, strengthen compliance and enhance operational resilience.”
The five-year performance period lays a solid foundation for continued innovation, including enhanced analytics and alignment with evolving cloud and security standards. Under the DLA, this contract vehicle is open to both DoW and non-DoW agencies to leverage.
The award reflects the U.S. federal government’s confidence in Sphera’s technology, domain expertise and past performance managing mission-critical hazardous materials programs that underpin readiness, compliance, logistics and environmental stewardship across complex operational environments.
