Classified Contracting
Fluet’s Classified Contracting Practice draws on extensive experience from within the U.S. Government, including working on classified operations, special access programs, and compartmented activities. Our attorneys hold active clearances, including Top Secret/SCI clearances, enabling us to provide responsive counsel on matters where timing is critical and delays for clearance processing are unacceptable. This unique positioning allows us to serve clients on work that requires not just legal acumen, but operational judgment developed through military command experience and senior government service.
Our attorneys help clients with solutions for:
- Advising on classified contract formation, compliance, and program protection planning.
- Conducting due diligence where parts of the transaction involve classified materials.
- Guiding contractors through Facility Security Clearance (FCL) application processes and DCSA coordination.
- Implementing NISPOM requirements for classified information handling, storage, transmission, and destruction.
- Handling security violations and incident reporting in classified environments, including coordination with government security officials.
- Resolving classified contract disputes and claims while maintaining appropriate classification boundaries.
- Managing integration of classified and unclassified contract vehicles for hybrid programs.
