About this award
Toyon Research Corporation, a small business based in Goleta, California, was awarded a definitive contract by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) on September 27, 2019, to support the Collaborative Exploitation for Decentralized Autonomous Reconnaissance (CEDAR) program. Valued at approximately $2.4M with a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure and no small business set-aside designation, the contract extends through December 27, 2023. The award emerged from AFRL's Study of Emerging Exploitation Developments program, a broad agency announcement seeking advancements in sensor exploitation technologies across multiple modalities including radar, wide-area motion imagery, electro-optics, infrared, and hyperspectral imaging. Toyon's expertise in autonomous systems, advanced sensing, and artificial intelligence positions the company well to address the program's focus areas of detection and tracking, recognition, and multi-intelligence exploitation.
This contract represents AFRL's investment in next-generation reconnaissance capabilities and aligns with the Service's broader emphasis on autonomous systems and distributed sensing architectures. Toyon Research Corporation has established itself as a consistent performer for AFRL and other defense agencies through its specialization in electronic warfare, sensor development, and autonomous technologies. The company's track record across multiple Small Business Innovation Research programs and its experience developing advanced technologies for Defense Department agencies demonstrate its qualifications for executing research and development efforts that advance sensor exploitation methodologies and autonomous reconnaissance capabilities.
