Purchase Order N0017313P1495

The Office of Naval Research awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $4,050 to The Mathworks, Inc. for license keys, with an award date of June 24, 2013, and an ultimate completion date of June 28, 2013. The Mathworks, headquartered in Natick, Massachusetts, is a leading provider of mathematical computing software to the federal government, specializing in MATLAB and Simulink platforms that serve critical roles in advanced research, development, and engineering applications across defense and civilian agencies. This purchase order represents a routine licensing transaction consistent with The Mathworks' extensive portfolio of federal contracts spanning NASA, Department of Defense agencies, and civilian research institutions.

No set-aside designation was applied to this contract, allowing The Mathworks to compete on an open basis. The contract was performed in Natick, MA, the vendor's headquarters location. This relatively modest purchase order reflects the transactional nature of software licensing renewals and acquisitions that The Mathworks routinely fulfills for federal agencies. The award demonstrates the Office of Naval Research's continued reliance on mathematical computing software to support its research and development mission across naval science and technology programs.
