Small orders, repeatable
Why it matters: A Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) is a standing agreement for repeat small buys. Army units buy under their own commanders' authority, and local contracting offices set up BPAs so they can order fast. Responding to the sources-sought notice is how you get considered.^[1, SAM]

What this means for you
BPAs turn one approval into many small orders. The Fort Drum window is for resellers of Blue-listed drones; the Europe notice is market research for a planned BPA.
Next step: If you resell Blue-listed drones, send the Fort Drum PDF this month. Ask the maker for the reseller letter first.
