About this award
This is a $1,599,942.70 definitive, firm-fixed-price contract awarded by the U.S. Air Force to the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska for the development of a Global Composite Drought Indicator (GCDI). The contract has an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2026.
The University of Nebraska is the prime contractor and will be supported by two subcontractors: the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Space Flight Center, and the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC). This contract is not set aside for any small business or socioeconomic programs.
The contract aims to build a GCDI hot spot early warning and information system, leveraging the University of Nebraska's expertise in scientific research, climate monitoring, and technological innovation. This effort appears to be a follow-on to previous work, potentially involving the integration of remote sensing data, drought modeling, and information dissemination capabilities. The participation of NASA and UNMC suggests the incorporation of advanced satellite imagery, data analysis, and potential public health applications related to drought impacts.
This contract award is part of the Air Force's broader mission to support research, development, and the provision of scientific and technological solutions to address national security challenges, including environmental monitoring and climate resilience.
