This federal contract award, with a value of $6,995,555.00, was issued by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to Covar, LLC, a small disadvantaged business doing business as Covar Applied Technologies Inc. The contract, titled "AUTONOMY RULES," is a definitive, firm-fixed price contract with an ultimate completion date of August 14, 2026. This award was made under the Autonomy Standards and Ideals with Military Operational Values (ASIMOV) program, which aims to develop benchmarks to measure the ethical difficulty and readiness of autonomous systems for military applications. The original ASIMOV solicitation, which did not include any set-aside designations, sought proposals to create generative modeling environments to objectively evaluate autonomous system performance. This award to Covar will contribute to establishing these prototype benchmarks.
