  5. Key Takeaways NMLC has been granted Head of Contracting Activity (HCA) authority for Navy Medicine. HCA authority means NMLC can delegate and/or rescind procurement authority for Navy Medicine contracting offices. This is a function previously performed by Fleet Logistics Center Procurement Performance Management Assessment Program (PPMAP) Offices. This initial phase pertains to CONUS activities only. With the authority comes the responsibility to set up a Navy Medicine PPMAP program. Navy Medicine can leverage this capability to accomplish related goals, including audit readiness and sourcing optimization. NAVSUP and NMLC will work together to execute this plan by mid-FY13
