Brittany Jeffers

Brittany Jeffers serves as a key procurement professional within the Missile Defense Agency, supporting the acquisition of advanced missile defense systems critical to national security. She manages complex contracts for the development, testing, and fielding of layered interceptors, sensor networks, and command-and-control architectures designed to counter ballistic missile threats across all flight phases. Her work directly enables MDA’s mission to modernize homeland and theater defense capabilities through rapid technology integration and system-of-systems engineering, focusing on high-priority programs in midcourse and terminal-phase interception. Jeffers handles full lifecycle acquisitions—from research and development to production and sustainment—often involving classified and sensitive technologies under strict compliance with DoD acquisition regulations. She maintains close working relationships with prime contractors including Lockheed Martin Corp. and Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, leveraging their expertise in radar modernization, kinetic kill vehicle design, and battle management command systems. Jacobs Technology Inc. is also a frequent partner, providing systems engineering and technical assistance for integration testing and field operations. Her contracting approach emphasizes long-term collaboration with industry leaders capable of delivering high-assurance, mission-critical capabilities under demanding technical and schedule constraints. Jeffers’ procurement portfolio reflects a strict focus on open competition, with 100% of awards issued under no set-aside preferences. There is no documented reliance on 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other socioeconomic programs, indicating a prioritization of technical capability and mission readiness over socioeconomic targeting in this high-stakes domain. Her acquisitions are exclusively governed by NAICS 334511, reflecting deep specialization in the design and manufacture of advanced missile defense sensors, guidance systems, and aeronautical navigation instruments. She procures mission-critical hardware and software integrating radar tracking, fire control algorithms, and real-time data fusion—core components of the Ground-Based Midcourse Defense and Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense systems.
