About this award
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), operating as a division of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), received a delivery order contract valued at $4.27 million under the President/Director Research & Development Fund (PDRDF) for Fiscal Year 2025. This cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, awarded on October 1, 2024, carries an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2028, and will be performed in Pasadena, California. The contract was awarded without a set-aside designation, indicating selection based on technical merit and capabilities. As a child contract under a larger vehicle, this award leverages JPL's extensive experience as a federally funded research and development center specializing in advanced space exploration, earth observation, scientific research, and technology development.
JPL's federal contracting portfolio demonstrates its role as a critical research partner for NASA, the Department of Defense, and other federal agencies. Under this PDRDF contract, the laboratory will likely support research and development initiatives consistent with its core competencies, which include space systems development, autonomous systems research, advanced sensor technologies, and complex scientific instrumentation design. The cost-plus-fixed-fee structure provides flexibility for the research-oriented nature of the work while ensuring controlled program costs through the fixed fee component. This award reflects the continued reliance on JPL's technical capabilities and its status as a preeminent civilian research institution supporting federal scientific and technological objectives.
