The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), a component of the University of Texas System, was awarded a $5.2 million indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security United States Secret Service to provide research and development services in support of the agency's protective and investigative missions. Under this IDIQ contract, UTSA has received four delivery orders totaling approximately $1.4 million to date. The delivery orders specify optional research support services to be performed by UTSA, with pricing based on firm-fixed-price or labor hours. No small business set-aside provisions were applied. The contract does not have a set-aside designation, allowing the Secret Service flexibility in obtaining UTSA's expertise across scientific and technical domains. The work is to be performed at UTSA's facilities in San Antonio, Texas through September 2024. The original solicitation sought to establish a multi-year, multiple-award IDIQ contract for university-based research and development to support the Secret Service's operational needs. As a public Hispanic-serving institution and minority-owned university, UTSA has an extensive portfolio of federal contract and grant awards, often involving collaboration with other University of Texas System schools. Through this IDIQ contract, UTSA will leverage its capabilities in areas such as digital forensics, materials science, and sensor technology to conduct R&D tasks as specified by the Secret Service.
