About this IDV

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Research and Technology contract to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University (Virginia Tech) on August 20, 2020, with a ceiling value of $53.0 million and an ultimate completion date of February 20, 2026. The five-year contract vehicle supports FMCSA's research and technology program focused on promoting safety of commercial motor vehicles, drivers, and carriers. As a civilian agency contract with no set-aside designation, the work is primarily performed at Virginia Tech's Blacksburg, Virginia campus, leveraging the university's extensive capabilities in engineering, science, and technology to conduct sophisticated research addressing commercial transportation safety challenges. The original November 2018 pre-solicitation announcement sought contractors capable of performing human factors research through laboratory, simulator, and field evaluations to study commercial motor vehicle technologies, drivers, and operations, with emphasis on automated driving systems, safety technologies, and driver-vehicle interactions.

Under this IDIQ vehicle, FMCSA has issued 23 task orders totaling approximately $23.8 million in funded work, spanning research initiatives including development of on-road driving performance evaluation methods for automated driving systems-equipped heavy-duty vehicles ($7.4M), impact of driver detention time on safety and operations ($2.06M), Project ACE (Accelerating Connected Ecosystems) program testing and demonstration ($2.89M across multiple orders), human factors research in automated driving systems-equipped commercial motor vehicles ($1.56M), safety impacts of human-autonomous driving system shared driving applications ($1.8M), Electronic Logging Device certification studies ($0.795M), warning devices for stopped commercial motor vehicles ($1.125M), and various specialized research efforts addressing driver qualifications, medical certifications, controlled substance enforcement, truck parking safety, and intelligent tire technologies. These task orders employ varying contract types, including firm fixed-price and cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangements, with Virginia Tech frequently partnering with subcontractors such as Southwest Research Institute, Deloitte Consulting LLP, Colorado State University, and specialized transportation research firms to deliver comprehensive research and technical services supporting FMCSA's regulatory and safety advancement objectives.
