DARPA is organized into six “offices.” Five of the six offices use a combination of office-wide Broad Agency Announcements (BAAs) and narrower, program-specific BAAs as the primary method for soliciting proposals for innovative R&D projects.2 The five offices are the
Defense Sciences Office (DSO), Information Innovation Office (I2O), Microsystems Technology Office (MTO), Strategic Technology Office (STO), and the Tactical Technology Office (TTO). The Adaptive Execution Office (AEO), established during Dr. Dugan’s tenure, is primarily
concerned with coordinating field trials of DARPA-developed technologies and the transition of such technologies to the Services and Combatant Commands (COCOMs).

[After leaving DARPA], Dr. Regina Dugan co-founded Dugan Ventures, a niche investment firm, where she served as President and CEO. In 2005, Dugan Ventures founded RedXDefense, LLC, a privately held company devoted to innovative solutions for combating explosive threats, where
she also served as President and CEO.
