The following list is a sample of what the DHA buys:

• Managed Care Support
• Dental Support
• Information Management/Information Technology
• Program Management Support
• Administrative and Resource Management Support

Before determining which of these possibilities are the best course for your business, you should have a thorough understanding of what exactly the DHA is, the environment in which we exist, and the types of services and commodities we purchase.

Following are additional sites that provide Small Business information beyond the opportunities that exist within the DHA:

U.S. Small Business Administration

The Small Business Administration is the U.S. Government's "central office" for small business whose sole purpose is to assist and promote small business development, utilization and growth. Each Cabinet Department has its own "Small Business" office that further assists the Small Business Community implementing Government-wide SBA policy as an integral part of their acquisition activities. The SBA website is a great place to start to familiarize yourself with the U.S. Government's Small Business Programs, including information about how to start a small business and where to find business opportunities.

DOD Office of Small Business Programs

This website contains information on DOD programs that benefit small businesses and DOD business opportunities.
