About this award
The Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $926.7K purchase order to Aretec, Inc., a minority-owned small disadvantaged business based in Fairfax, Virginia, to maintain a commercial off-the-shelf Software-as-a-Service subscription to the Dimensions.ai research database. This bridge action contract, effective through November 1, 2026, provides continued access to a comprehensive, linked research database that supports the Air Force's research and analysis capabilities. The contract was awarded on a firm fixed-price basis with no set-aside designation, though Aretec's status as a small disadvantaged business aligns with the Air Force Research Laboratory's commitment to supporting diverse contractors.
Aretec brings substantial federal contracting experience to this engagement, having served numerous agencies including the Department of Homeland Security, Securities and Exchange Commission, and Small Business Administration. As a technology-focused firm specializing in data science, information technology, and professional services since its 2006 founding, Aretec maintains access to several significant government-wide acquisition contracts and indefinite delivery vehicles, including the $20 billion CIO-SP3 Small Business contract and SEAPORT-NXG. The Dimensions.ai subscription will enhance the Air Force Research Laboratory's research capabilities by providing researchers with access to a linked database of scientific publications, funding data, and related research metrics to support evidence-based decision-making and research planning.
