Impact on Federal Contracting

The Secret clearance is the most commonly required clearance in federal contracting. The majority of DoD contracts, particularly in IT, engineering, logistics, and professional services, require Secret clearances. Having a cleared workforce is a significant competitive advantage and barrier to entry in defense contracting.
