BRAC-Related Contracting Opportunities
The 2005 BRAC process is the largest, most complex and costliest BRAC round to date. By DoD’s own estimates, the implementation of the BRAC recommendations will cost over $32.4 billion during the six year implementation period. This ever-evolving sum represents an abundance of contract opportunities for businesses across all industries. In the Greater Washington Metro area several military installations will experience tremendous growth due to BRAC, including Ft. Meade in Anne Arundel County, Aberdeen Proving Ground in Harford County, National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Army National Guard Readiness Center in Arlington County, Ft. Belvoir in Fairfax County and MCB Quantico in Prince William and Stafford Counties. This growth will result in a number of Defense-related business development prospects for local companies.
While the most visible opportunities tied to BRAC consist of construction-related goods and services, considerable dollars will also be spent on relocation services, information technology support, project management, research & development and professional support services, to name a few examples.
