This lists abstracts of unclassified Department of Defense contracts involving weapons of mass destruction and related technology, for research, design, production and support services as well as for WMD counterproliferation and disassembly in the former Soviet Union and counter-terrorism. Although classified contracts are not public, their likely overlap with unclassified offers an indirect glimpse of the top secret WMD world.

The list was obtained from a search of the DoD's news archive under subcategory of "contracts:"

Nuclear and special weapons contracts involve the Defense Nuclear Agency and its successor the Defense Special Weapons Agency, while the counterproliferation, WMD disassembly and counter-terrorism contracts are by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency.

The Special Weapons Umbrella

In June, the Defense Nuclear Agency (DNA), the oldest of the defense agencies, was renamed the Defense Special Weapons Agency (DSWA). Though it seems back to the future for an organization begun in 1947 as the Armed Forces Special Weapons Project, the agency assumes an alias to insure its very survival.

"Pure response to market forces," one insider said. "The defense leadership no longer wanted an agency whose name solely connoted nuclear weapons."

DSWA's multi-function nuclear mission--stockpile management, effects testing, and arms control and verification support--continues as the core, while non-nuclear work on "advanced" conventional weapons chases after the future. Yet it is an odd bureaucratic function of the agency as a contracting organization that is most valuable to political appointees, generals, and admirals. DSWA will continue DNA's legacy of providing patronage for a host of political and technical "studies," a financier now renewed to dabble in an even broader set of issues.

Sensing a crisis at the end of the Cold War, Congress asked in 1993 what DNA's future should be. A high-level review group was formed, and the Defense Science Board and Rand Corporation scrutinized the state of Defense's nuclear competence. Both cautioned that with the armed services reducing their nuclear cadres, there was a danger of further erosion and fragmenting of expertise.

Nuclear concerns saved DNA from possible elimination, but in truth the savings that would result from chopping the agency turned out to be only a few million annually, because DNA dispersed more than 90 percent of its budget to private industry and contractors. Los Alamos and Livermore Laboratories maintain their expertise in-house, but DNA doled out funds to a habitual few: JAYCOR, Kaman Sciences, Logicon RDA, Mission Research Corporation, Pacific Sierra, and Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), among others. Twenty-five contracts awarded to SAIC alone from October 1992­June 1994 totaled $74 million. Even if much of the work is justified, DNA is notorious for its ties to these as well as other like-minded "beltway bandits"--nuclear advocates who wait like baby birds for the annual regurgitation.

DNA assumed the role of godfather in the wake of government "reforms" to tighten controls over the number of individuals and agencies able to spend the defense budget. The awarding of new contracts was made more difficult and time consuming. With competitive bids required, small organizations were truly put at a disadvantage, particularly given the amount of paperwork needed to apply for government grants. When it came to studies, those most put out were one- and two-year political appointees and military officials needing "research" to press their ideas. For them, the gravity and value of an idea is often equated with the throw-weight of paper.

Enter the umbrella contract -- officially called "master agreements" -- retainers for paper warriors to remain in reserve awaiting recall for the next bureaucratic battle. "Sort of the equivalent of our industrial policy for producing nuclear submarines," joked a former beltway bandit now working in the Pentagon. "DNA keeps the production base 'warm' just in case a flurry of studies is needed."

DNA has at least 15 master agreements with a dozen contractors, including obscure boutique "think tanks" ready to give whatever answer is needed to empire-building policy-makers. All of these are in addition to the four "federally funded" research and development centers--Rand, Center for Naval Analysis, Logistics Management Institute, and Institute for Defense Analysis--given a total of $200 million-plus annually to conduct "studies and analyses."   The Defense Science Board task force, supportive of DNA, did criticize the agency for clinging too doggedly "to problems whose ultimate solution remained, for purely technical reasons, out of reach." In other words, pet projects such as high-power microwaves, directed-energy weapons, and unconventional exotica. Such engineering research was always justified under the agency's broad mission, and will undoubtedly get a boost under DSWA.

But when it came to paper research, the board and Rand were silent, unwilling to question the value of studies, or to challenge the system. It is a situation no different than the non-profit world, where people bitch about the foundations, captive nonetheless to their bread and butter. A Rand scientist involved in the review could merely offer this judgment: "Scratch the surface of any agency or funder and you'll find nonsense."

Nonsense will no doubt proliferate under DSWA, with its faddish and redundant importuning at the new altar of counterproliferation. A more consequential danger is that as nuclear work fades farther into the unsupervised shadows, public funding for increasingly marginalized hawks and right-wingers will increase. DSWA could thus fail to carry out its primary mission, while serving as a slush fund for projects that can't pass muster with other agencies or the services. The office of the Secretary of Defense and the Joint Staff meanwhile remain passive, especially when DSWA serves as the conduit for them to funnel money to their favorite "consultants."

In all honesty, I should say that I even worked a few years back as a subcontractor for a DNA-sponsored project relating to the Gulf War. Now if that doesn't prove how screwed up the agency is, nothing does.

DEFENSE SPECIAL WEAPONS AGENCY
Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide
FY 2000/2001 Biennial Budget Estimates

I. Narrative Description:

The Defense Special Weapons Agency (DSWA) serves as the DoD center for nuclear and advanced weapons effects expertise and performs essential missions in the areas of nuclear weapons stockpile support, nuclear effects research and operational support, and nuclear threat reduction to include arms control verification technology development. DSWA is responsible for providing a comprehensive and integrated DoD Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) program to support preparation, implementation, compliance and verification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). O&M funded resources support the personnel infrastructure and contractual support associated with operating and maintaining International Monitoring System (IMS) sensor stations. Additionally, DSWA supports other related defense needs including research and advanced development of capabilities needed for military responses to the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD). DSWA conducts independent force protection specific vulnerability assessments of DoD installations and sites to assist local commanders in identifying force protection deficiencies and determining appropriate remedies that will mitigate the effects of future terrorist incidents. As required, DSWA provides support to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Commanders of the Unified Combatant Commands in analyzing planning and action options for nuclear and other designated advanced weapons, to include weapon system lethality and operability, and force reconstitution. DSWA also provides base support functions for the Army’s chemical munition demilitarization mission and other activities on Johnston Atoll.

In his November 1997 Defense Reform Initiative (DRI), the Secretary of Defense identified the challenges posed by weapons of mass destruction (WMD) as the greatest and most complex threats facing the Department of Defense in the future. To address these challenges, the Department has established the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), effective October 1, 1998, as a key component in the DoD response to these challenges. Resources programmed for FY 1999 and out were transferred from Defense Special Weapons Agency (DSWA) to DTRA as a result of the November 1997 DRI.

Defense Threat Reduction Agency
In the post-Cold War environment, a unified, consistent approach to deterring, reducing and countering weapons of mass destruction is essential to maintaining our national security. Under DTRA, Department of Defense resources, expertise and capabilities are combined to ensure the United States remains ready and able to address the present and future WMD threat. We perform four essential functions to accomplish our mission: combat support, technology development, threat control and threat reduction. These functions form the basis for how we are organized and our daily activities. Together, they enable us to reduce the physical and psychological terror of weapons of mass destruction, thereby enhancing the security of the world’s citizens. At the dawn of the 21st century, no other task is as challenging or demanding.

Logicon R&D Associates (7 contracts)
http://www.logicon.com/about/history.html

In 1983, Logicon acquired R&D Associates, a company whose founders came from the Rand Corporation. RDA was focused on policy issues, research into nuclear weapons effects, analysis of national intelligence collection systems and energy problems. This acquisition increased Logicon's size by about 50 percent and added a whole new customer base.

In 1997, Northrop Grumman acquired Logicon, and established it as a wholly owned subsidiary. The acquisition was part of Northrop Grumman’s long-term plan to focus on the technologies likely to yield the greatest improvements in US national security capabilities. This strategy led Northrop Grumman to acquisitions in advanced sensors and electronics and information technology, while enhancing its existing capabilities in manned and unmanned aerial systems.

Northrop Grumman merged its existing information systems business with Logicon in 1998, retaining the Logicon name. This created an enterprise with nearly $1 billion in sales and more than 10,000 employees. Since that time, Northrop Grumman has acquired the following companies and successfully integrated them into Logicon: Inter-National Research Institute (INRI) (1998), DPC Technologies (1999), Comptek Federal Systems (2000), Federal Data Corporation (2000), Sterling Software’s Federal Systems Group (2000), Litton TASC (2001) and Litton PRC (2001). As part of a global branding initiative in 2001, Northrop Grumman renamed the Logicon sector, Northrop Grumman Information Technology.
