About this award

This is a $4,986,077 cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract awarded by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) to CUBRC, Inc., a non-profit research and development company based in Buffalo, New York. The contract, titled "Learning Intelligence Norms and Knowledge-Management Strategies (LINKS)", is an undefinitized order that runs through June 26, 2023.

The original solicitation was a Broad Agency Announcement from ONR seeking proposals for applied research and advanced technology development projects applying machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques to improve expeditionary command and control and intelligence capabilities for naval environments. Key focus areas include developing agents to aid in mission planning and execution, tracking unit capabilities, assessing courses of action, automating control measures placement, and using natural language processing for common operational pictures.

CUBRC has previously been awarded several significant federal contract vehicles, including a $4 billion SEAPORT-NXG multiple-award IDIQ with Naval Sea Systems Command, a $15 million Basic Ordering Agreement with the Office of the Secretary of Defense for AI data readiness, and a $71 million single-award IDIQ with the Army Research, Development and Engineering Command. The company has also collaborated with subcontractors like Machina Cognita Technologies, Inc., a veteran-owned small disadvantaged business, on this LINKS project.
