About this award
The U.S. Department of Defense's Washington Headquarters Service awarded a $530,000 delivery order contract to The CNA Corporation on August 22, 2024, for the development of standards to ensure trustworthy artificial intelligence-enabled systems. Structured as a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order with an ultimate completion date of August 22, 2026, this contract does not utilize a small business set-aside. The work will be performed in Arlington, Virginia, and represents an effort to establish standardized frameworks that promote the trustworthiness and reliability of AI systems being developed or deployed across federal defense and national security applications.
The CNA Corporation, a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) and non-profit research organization, is well-positioned to execute this effort given its extensive experience conducting analytical research, strategic assessments, and technical support services for the Department of Defense and related agencies. The contractor's substantial contract portfolio with the Navy, Department of Defense leadership, and other federal entities demonstrates established expertise in complex national security challenges, including emerging technology areas such as artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. This delivery order likely falls under one of CNA's existing indefinite delivery vehicles, enabling flexible task order execution while supporting the government's broader objectives to ensure AI systems meet critical trustworthiness and security standards.
