Our Path Forward

As we continue to grow and evolve as an organization, we’ve created a plan for our path forward. The DCSA Strategic Plan provides a framework for how DCSA will answer security challenges facing industry, the federal workforce, and the nation's critical information, technologies, and supply chain.

The FY2025 – 2030 DCSA Strategic Plan embodies DCSA’s vision for the future and sets forth three strategic priorities:

  1. Move the agency to full performance and integration in each mission
  2. Anticipate and prepare DCSA for the future by equipping the agency to confront an evolving threat landscape in 2040
  3. Raise the level of understanding and recognition of DCSA as the premier provider of integrated security services for the Federal government with external stakeholders
