About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Office of Naval Research awarded a $6.9 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to CUBRC, Inc., a Buffalo, New York-based nonprofit research and development organization specializing in advanced defense technologies. Under the State of a Mission Through Intelligence and Logistic Estimation (SMILE) program, CUBRC will deliver artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities designed to support naval decision-making and command and control operations. The contract, which originated from ONR's Special Notice seeking AI/ML-enabled tools for naval applications, runs through January 1, 2024, with performance conducted in Cheektowaga, New York. This award carries no small business set-aside designation and aligns with ONR's Minerva Innovative Naval Prototype program and AI Task Force initiatives, which focus on developing rapidly deployable capabilities in areas including intelligence estimation and course of action assessment.

CUBRC is supported by subcontractor Machina Cognita Technologies, Inc., a small disadvantaged and service-disabled veteran-owned business based in Carlsbad, California, which was awarded a supporting contract in October 2020. Machina Cognita's involvement brings specialized expertise in deep learning algorithms and explainable artificial intelligence applications relevant to defense intelligence analysis. CUBRC's selection reflects its established position as a critical technology provider to the Department of Defense, with extensive experience operating the Aerothermal Aero-Optics Evaluation Center and maintaining significant federal contract vehicles including the $4 billion SEAPORT-NXG program and a $249 million Joint Artificial Intelligence Center Basic Ordering Agreement, positioning the organization to effectively deliver the advanced AI and ML capabilities required for naval command and control applications.
