Countering U.S. Adversary WMD and Drone Threats in Iraq

The Countering U.S. Adversary WMD and Drone Threats in Iraq program, managed by the Department of State's Arms Control and Nonproliferation - Cooperative Threat Reduction agency, is designed to strengthen Iraq's capacity to combat terrorist groups and Iranian-backed proxies. The initiative focuses on disrupting access to unmanned aerial systems and weapons of mass destruction, specifically chemical and biological weapons. By providing targeted support to Iraqi laboratories, law enforcement, and military forces, the program enhances the detection of and response to these threats in alignment with NSPM-2. These efforts are strategically aimed at protecting U.S. personnel and interests within Iraq and the broader region while simultaneously weakening proxy networks to increase U.S. leverage in nuclear negotiations with Iran. This forecast is categorized under NAICS code 541690 and involves performance across multiple locations. Primary points of contact for the initiative include Ryan Taugher and Small Business Specialist Tyler Sinclair.
