Every Backer inquiry routes to one of two paths — partnership conversations with Ashley Brennan, or general inquiries handled within one business day. Either way, you'll hear back from a person, not a form auto-responder.
01 / Inquiry routing
Path 01 · Recommended for procurement, primes, NATO buyers
A 30-minute structured discovery call with Ashley Brennan, Backer's operational executive — directly, not delegated. Kelso joins for governance, strategic, or partnership-structure conversations. Designed for prime contractors, federal program managers, sustainment leads, ITB credit teams, NATO-allied buyers, and innovation funding organizations.
Path 02 · Everything else
For media, suppliers, recruitment, capability statement requests, and anything that isn't a partnership conversation. We respond personally, typically within one business day.
02 / General inquiry form
For partnership conversations, please use the scheduling link in Path 01 above. For everything else, the form below routes to a monitored inbox.
03 / Direct line
For time-sensitive partnership matters or active program situations that don't fit the structured channels above, the Backer principal direct line is available.
