About this award

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) awarded a delivery order valued at $984,094 to the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) on January 1, 2025, for an independent technical assessment of three NIST laboratories: the Center for Neutron Research (NCNR), the Physical Measurement Laboratory (PML), and the Communications Technology Laboratory (CTL). The contract is structured as a cost-no-fee arrangement, reflecting NAS's nonprofit status, with performance extending through May 31, 2026. No set-aside designation was used for this procurement. The work will be performed in Washington, DC, and represents NIST's utilization of NAS's established expertise in providing objective, independent scientific and technical assessments to federal agencies.

This delivery order likely derives from one of NAS's existing indefinite delivery contracts with federal agencies, enabling streamlined task order issuance for specialized advisory services. NAS regularly conducts comprehensive technical assessments and consensus studies across federal laboratories and research initiatives, leveraging its network of subject matter experts to evaluate organizational performance, research capabilities, and technical operations. The assessment of these three NIST centers will support the agency's mission to maintain and enhance measurement standards, physical science research, and communications technology capabilities that underpin U.S. scientific competitiveness and industrial innovation.
