About this IDV
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration awarded a multiple-award indefinite-delivery contract to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University on July 16, 2026, with a contract ceiling of one dollar and an ultimate completion date of July 15, 2031. This R & T IDIQ provides research and technology to improve the safety of commercial motor vehicles, drivers, and carriers. Work is performed across Virginia Tech's facilities in Blacksburg, Roanoke, Alexandria, and subordinate locations for field research and demonstrations. The contract carries no set-aside. The one-dollar ceiling reflects a cost-reimbursable or not-to-exceed mechanism typical of research and development IDIQs where task orders establish individual funding levels. As a multiple-award vehicle, Virginia Tech competes alongside other awardees for individual task orders under the program. Virginia Tech's federal research footprint includes transportation safety expertise anchored by prior Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration delivery orders; the university has executed related work including a $4.6 million FMCSA delivery order for sleeper berth safety pilot programs and maintains established relationships across transportation research and engineering domains.
