The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of contractors in the execution of Arms Control treaties and treaty-like agreements. DOD is under competing pressures to move tasks that are not directly related to war-fighting duties outside the uniformed services. At the same time, DOD's budget is decreasing while Arms Control types of taskings are increasing in number. This paper will examine the history of contractor support of the INF and START Treaties, and possible lessons for support of the Chemical Weapons Convention and other Treaties and agreements. Also addressed will be the unique attributes military personnel bring to the execution of these treaties-functions that may not or should not be contracted. The paper will also examine the constraints on contractor roles, missions and responsibilities while supporting these agreements. The objective is to develop background for use by CINCs, Executive Agency Directors and Department heads for determining whether to use contractors to support future Arms Control treaties or treaty-like agreements.
