About this award

The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC (APL) received a $300,000 delivery order contract from the Office of Naval Research for the "Dead Center – Dismiss Integration Proof of Concept" project, with performance in Laurel, Maryland. This cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, awarded on September 22, 2025, carries an ultimate completion date of March 21, 2027. The effort represents a non-set-aside award and falls under APL's existing IDIQ vehicle with the Office of Naval Research, enabling rapid task order procurement for research, development, test, and evaluation services. No set-aside designation was applied to this award.

APL, a not-for-profit university-affiliated research center and child entity of Johns Hopkins University, specializes in delivering advanced technical solutions to national security agencies across defense technology, space science, and engineering domains. The proof-of-concept initiative aligns with the Office of Naval Research's focus on supporting innovative naval research and development activities. As a frequent prime contractor for the Navy and other defense agencies, APL brings sophisticated capabilities in systems engineering, technical evaluation, and prototype development to this effort. The relatively modest contract ceiling reflects the proof-of-concept phase nature of the work, which likely involves technical demonstration and feasibility assessment activities prior to potential larger-scale integration efforts.
