About this award

Peraton Labs Inc. (doing business as Applied Communication Sciences) was awarded an $8.82M cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) on July 28, 2016, for the Machine-Intelligence for Advance Notification of Threats and Energy-Grid Survivable Situational Awareness (MANTESSA) program. The contract, with an ultimate completion date of March 26, 2021, was performed in Basking Ridge, New Jersey, with no set-aside designation. Under this effort, Peraton Labs led the development of a situational awareness system designed to provide early warning of impending attacks on critical infrastructure, detect adversary spoofing of power grid telemetry, and maintain operational awareness during and after attacks through software module implementation.

The prime contractor engaged four major subcontractors to support execution of the DARPA BAA-16-14 Rapid Attack Detection, Isolation and Characterization Systems (RADICS) initiative: Princeton University, Columbia University, Carnegie Mellon University, and Security Services LLC, with Tekmark Global Solutions LLC providing additional engineering services. This collaborative structure leveraged academic expertise in advanced research and development alongside specialized technical capabilities to deliver comprehensive situational awareness solutions for protecting the nation's energy grid infrastructure against emerging cyber and physical threats.
