  1. Defense and Homeland Security Industry Cluster AnalysisPreliminary Results April 14, 2009

  2. Genesis of the Study • One of the key objectives of the BRAC RTF is to assist in the transformation of the regional economy around Ft Bragg from its traditional base of textiles and agriculture to a more diverse and resilient economy based on support for the nation’s defense and homeland security needs. • To support this objective, the BRAC RTF needed a means of projecting the shape of this new economy so that plans could be made to promote and attract critical industries to the region. No industries are to be excluded, but to achieve transformation, those industries linked to the changes that BRAC is bringing must be targeted and attracted to the region.

  3. Study Tasks • Task 1: Identify target industries • Task 2: Conduct occupational analysis • Task 3: Identify regional assets • Task 4: Identify regional gaps • Task 5: Develop strategic plan and implementation matrix

  4. Task 1 Identify Target Industries Which industries support a D&HS cluster?

  5. Task 1: Identify Target Industries (Cont.) • FORSCOM/USARC Contracts • Twenty-one contracts valued at over $2B at FORSCOM and USARC • Two contracts are responsible for 96% of the total spend, and one contract alone accounts for 86% of the annual value of FORSCOM contracts. • $75-$80 M in annual contract spending and 750 FTEs are a reasonable assumption of what will move with FORSCOM and USARC to the new Headquarters.
