About this award
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) was awarded a $1.25 million definitive contract on May 3, 2023, by the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command to develop analogue genetic circuits for long-term reliable reporting by living sensors under the B24IC Phase 2 program. The contract is structured as Cost No Fee and has no set-aside designation, indicating MIT's competitive selection through open procurement processes. Performance is based in Kansas City, Missouri, with an ultimate completion date of May 21, 2025. This contract represents MIT's continued engagement in biotechnology research with direct applications to naval information warfare capabilities, leveraging the institution's extensive expertise in genetic engineering and advanced biological systems development.
The University of Washington serves as a subcontractor to MIT on this effort, with a subaward issued on September 19, 2023, to design novel components of genetic circuitry. This collaborative structure demonstrates the integration of specialized expertise across leading research institutions, with the University of Washington's Office of Sponsored Programs Division contributing focused research capabilities in genetic circuit design to support the overall program objectives. The partnership reflects a common federal contracting approach of leveraging multiple research universities' complementary strengths to advance complex biotechnology initiatives aligned with Department of Defense priorities in novel sensing and reporting systems.
