Place of performance is Boulder, CO. The contract supports development and delivery of the L-CIRIS instrument with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2026.

Derived government-paid hourly rates declined from $2,614/hr in FY2021 to $369/hr in FY2025, reflecting the shift in contract phase and labor mix. In FY2025, two subcontractors performed 15 percent of contractor hours.
