The FY25-29 Strategic Trends Research Initiative Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) seeks to engage contractors in conducting strategic research focused on future challenges related to weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and emerging technologies over the next five years. This initiative is aimed at supporting the Defense Threat Reduction Agency's (DTRA) mission to deter strategic attacks against the United States and its allies, as well as to prevent and counter WMD threats. Contractors with expertise in analytical studies, international dialogues, and research projects related to WMD and emerging threats are encouraged to submit white papers. The BAA emphasizes the importance of actionable insights and recommendations that can inform future operations and investments, making it suitable for businesses with a strong background in defense, security, and research.
