US Strategic Command

United States Strategic Command, a major command within the Department of Defense responsible for strategic deterrence, space operations, cyberspace operations, and global strike capabilities, transacts through its parent command's acquisition infrastructure rather than operating an independent contracting office. STRATCOM itself does not directly award contracts or grants; contracting activity flows through the Office of the Secretary of Defense, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Navy, and supporting defense-agency procurement channels that execute requirements on STRATCOM's behalf. No recent contract awards, grant awards, contract opportunities, or grant opportunities are recorded against STRATCOM or its subordinate component commands in the current portfolio digest.
