Understanding Federal Acquisition and Capture

As tensions rise with Iran, deployment isn’t theoretical anymore, and acquisition reform isn't something we have time to keep talking around.

Our teammates, colleagues, and their families are deploying alongside brothers and sisters in arms. In moments like this, we owe the warfighter more than good intentions—we owe them the best technology available, delivered as fast as possible.

That doesn’t happen by waiting on long competitive cycles.

It happens through capture:

-- Shaping requirements early
-- Aligning stakeholders before contracting
-- Scaling proven solutions through sole‑source pathways

Capture is how capabilities move from “this works” to enterprise‑wide impact across bases, squadrons, and missions.

This video breaks down what capture really is and why, from my experience, it’s the fastest way to get the right tools into the hands of those who need them most.
