The U.S. Defense Contract Management Agency awarded Delivery Order 002 to XL Scientific LLC (doing business as Verus Research) on December 17, 2019, for a Dense Plasma Focus (DPF) requirement under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase III. This cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order, valued at approximately $11.1M, represents the continuation of advanced research and development work with a completion date of January 25, 2024. The work will be performed in Las Cruces, New Mexico, and no small business set-aside was applied to this award, despite the contractor's status as a small business concern. Verus Research, headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, specializes in directed energy, plasma physics, and advanced engineering services primarily supporting the Department of Defense across multiple research domains.
This delivery order builds upon Verus Research's established expertise in plasma physics and directed energy technologies developed through prior SBIR phases. The contractor maintains significant contract vehicles supporting federal research initiatives, including substantial IDIQs with the Air Force and Department of the Army. The SBIR Phase III designation indicates this work represents a commercialization or production phase following successful proof-of-concept and development phases, leveraging the company's demonstrated technical capabilities in advanced electromagnetic and plasma systems for defense applications.
