About this award

Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company received a $6.75 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for a research project with performance at the company's Thousand Oaks, California facility. The contract was awarded on February 14, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of December 14, 2025, and does not utilize a small business set-aside designation. This DARPA research initiative leverages Lockheed Martin's advanced technology development capabilities in support of the agency's mission to maintain U.S. technological superiority through high-risk, high-reward research programs. The contract structure as a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement provides flexibility for research and development activities while maintaining cost accountability through defined fee parameters.

The contract includes three identified subcontractors contributing specialized capabilities: Rocky Mountain Instrument Inc., a minority-owned optical component manufacturer based in Lafayette, Colorado, which is providing design for manufacturing services for thermal infrared prism assemblies; Spica Technologies Inc., a New Hampshire-based optical and ballistic testing firm supporting damage testing and laser source testing activities; and Adtech Optics Inc., which is supplying quantum cascade laser packages with specified power outputs at 4.05 micrometers and 4.65 micrometers wavelengths. These subcontractor selections reflect the specialized technical requirements of the DARPA research effort, combining precision optical component manufacturing, advanced testing capabilities, and specialized laser technology expertise necessary for successful program execution.
