The unit was moved to Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico on 31 Oct 1972. On 15 Mar 1989 it was briefly redesignated to simply "Contract Management Division" before being inactivated on 30 Jun 1990.[2] The unit was reactivated as the Enterprise Sourcing Group on 28 Oct 2010 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio as a direct reporting unit to Air Force Materiel Command.[3] On 1 Oct 2013, the Enterprise Sourcing Group was redesignated to the Air Force Installation Contracting Agency and made a Field Operating Agency of the Air Force.[4] The agency was converted from a field operating agency back to a subordinate unit of Air Force Material Command on 1 Oct 2014.
