The following DTRA organizational elements participate in CTR program execution and are expected to require support under this contract: DTRA Director and Deputy Director, CTR Program Integration Department, the CTR Biological Threat Reduction Department, the CTR Security & Elimination Department (made up of the Chemical Security & Elimination Program, the Global Nuclear Security Program, and the Strategic Offensive Arms Elimination Program), the CTR Proliferation Prevention Department, the Defense Threat Reduction Offices/Cooperative Engagement Offices, the DTRA On-Site Inspection and Building Capacity Directorate, the Cooperative Threat Reduction Policy Office, and the Threat Reduction Engagement Program.

This Industry Day will provide information to industry participants with respect to required department A&AS tasks, activities, responsibilities, duties, specialized skill sets, travel, constraints, desires, etc., the DTRA small business program, and the notional planned competition/acquisition strategy and contract details. The DTRA presentations will be followed by a Q&A session.

Fort Belvoir, VA 22060

While technically part of Ft. Belvoir , the DLA HQ Complex is located on a separate parcel on the north/western side of Rt. One/Richmond Hwy near the Fairfax County Parkway and is NOT adjacent to or within the main Ft. Belvoir base. Please allow ample time to access the complex. The Headquarters Complex has controlled access. All Industry Day participants must first check in at the DLA HQ McNamara Complex Visitor Control Center (VCC) using the Main Gate (Gate 1) (VCC is to the immediate right of the gate). This includes holders of DoD CAC cards and/or military retiree credentials. The Visitor Center has short term parking. The Visitor Center will verify your visit against the DTRA registration list (see registration link below). Visitors should NOT pre-register using the DLA Vistor Control Center DBIDS system; instead, all registration must be accomplished using the link below. Participants must bring a government-issued photo ID.

After leaving the Visitor Control Center, park in any open NON-numbered space in the parking lot (large main lot to the north/east that surrounds the McNamara HQ Complex). Attendees are encouraged to carpool or use Metro. Remember where you parked your car! After parking, proceed to the DLA Building main lobby entrance (Pod 4), located in the center of the building--the entrance adjacent to the flag poles--and report to the DTRA Industry Day registration desk that will be set up near the doors. Note: This event is being held in the DLA Building, NOT the adjacent DTRA HQ building.

Due to the limited amount of space, only three (3) representatives from each company will be allowed to attend. Participant swap outs/substitution requests after the January 28 registration deadline (see below) ARE NOT AUTHORIZED AND WILL NOT BE ACCOMODATED.

Registration, Building Access and Schedule:

Please register for the event at the link below by COB, 4 PM Eastern Time, Tuesday, 28 January 2020 . This information will be used for registration purposes as well as security processing.
