FBO Notices

DTRA Ft Belvoir Acq Fin and Log Mailbox FBO Notices serves as the central procurement coordination point for the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (HDTRA1), facilitating the solicitation and award of contracts critical to national security mission execution. This role manages the full lifecycle of acquisition notices for scientific, technical, and operational support services, ensuring alignment with HDTRA1’s mandate to counter weapons of mass destruction. The mailbox handles complex, high-priority procurements spanning research and development, threat detection systems, and logistics support, often involving classified or sensitive requirements under FAR Part 13 and Part 35 authorities. The mailbox maintains consistent contracting relationships with leading technical and scientific contractors including TECHTRANS INTERNATIONAL INC, BATTELLE MEMORIAL INSTITUTE, AERIS LLC, APPLIED RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, INC., and AMAZON WEB SERVICES, INC. These partnerships reflect a preference for established entities with proven expertise in defense science, advanced analytics, and secure cloud infrastructure. Contracting patterns emphasize long-term, performance-based agreements that integrate rapid prototyping, field-deployable technologies, and cross-domain data fusion capabilities.
