![]() The latest available information indicates that the biggest portion of DoD and DoE spending in Missouri was for contracts with Missouri-based companies. Those contracts were to produce goods and provide services to support not only DoD operations in Missouri, but nationally and internationally, as well.

Related to this, what are the Strengths and Weaknesses of current efforts, Opportunities for improvement, and Threats that may keep us from realizing this outcome?
