What is the primary focus of procurement at the Defense Contract Management Office?

The office focuses on acquiring professional services and technical support to facilitate contract administration, quality assurance, and industrial base analysis rather than purchasing end-user weapon systems directly.

Do I need a security clearance to work with the Defense Contract Management Office?
