About this IDV

The Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to Bluehalo, LLC (formerly UES Inc.) on November 14, 2013, with a ceiling value of $46.2 million and an ultimate completion date of November 1, 2018. This cost-plus-fixed-fee vehicle, with no small business set-aside, establishes a master contract for the Molecular Signatures Program and related COVID-19 molecular signatures period of performance extensions. The prime contractor, based in Beavercreek, Ohio, delivers advanced research, engineering, and scientific services across biotechnology, sensor development, and molecular analysis domains. The IDV serves as the parent vehicle under which multiple delivery orders have been executed to support Air Force Research Laboratory's strategic initiatives in molecular signature discovery, human performance assessment, and biosensor development.

Seven delivery orders totaling approximately $38.3 million have been issued against this IDV, addressing specialized research requirements including mass spectral signature discovery and modeling ($7.72 million), human signatures sensor development ($5.53 million and $9.19 million across multiple orders), genetic and cellular assessment for enhanced human performance ($3.92 million), engineered biosensors for human performance assessment and augmentation ($10.87 million), environmental air quality monitoring and biomarker discovery ($6.98 million), and biological safety level validation ($91,115). Performance locations are primarily Beavercreek and Dayton, Ohio. The work scope encompasses advanced analytical chemistry, biotechnology research, sensor materials development, and human performance augmentation technologies, often executed in collaboration with academic institutions including Stanford University and the University of Akron, as well as specialized small business subcontractors. All delivery orders maintain cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structures without small business set-asides, reflecting the specialized and technical nature of the research required.
