Naval Regional Contracting Center Naples (NRCC Naples) celebrated its 30th anniversary Sept. 5 at the command headquarters. RADM Michael L. Holmes, Commander Fleet Air Mediterranean, guest speaker, addressed employees and invited guests. In his address RADM Holmes praised NRCC for its leadership in regional contracting and satisfying customer requirements.
NRCC Naples has had an exciting and dynamic history throughout its 30 years of operation. Established to improve fleet and base contracting support in the Mediterranean, NRCC Naples has fulfilled that mission, and more, to assure cost effective and responsive acquisition, logistics, and business management support for today's Navy, both ashore and afloat.
Initially a branch office of the Naval Regional Procurement Office, Philadelphia, in 1972 the current NRCC Naples became an independent NRPO under its major claimant--the Naval Supply Systems Command.
In 1973, NRPO Naples created its first detachment when it assumed responsibility for the NRPO Philadelphia branch office located in London. In 1974, NRPO Naples established a field management division to manage field contracting activities at bases throughout the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea.
NRPO Naples became the Naval Regional Contracting Office, Naples, in 1978 and in 1982, NRCO Naples became the Naval Regional Contracting Center, Naples.
