About this IDV

Stellar Science LTD. CO., a small, veteran-owned limited liability company based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, was awarded a $48 million single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract by the Air Force Research Laboratory on June 29, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of March 3, 2026. The contract supports the Advanced Framework for Simulation, Integration, and Modeling (AFSIM) program, specifically focused on the Redefining the Basic Analytical and Simulation Environment (REBASE) initiative. Stellar Science provides physics-based simulation, custom scientific and engineering software development, and technical research services with emphasis on multi-domain modeling, computational electromagnetics, directed energy systems, and advanced scientific software development. The contract includes no set-aside designation and utilizes a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure for all associated delivery orders.

Three delivery orders have been issued under this IDC to date: Foundation I (REBASE) for $2.29 million (awarded June 29, 2021, completed January 25, 2024, performed in Las Cruces, New Mexico); Foundation & Expansion II for $5.75 million (awarded March 15, 2024, completion March 15, 2024, performed in Albuquerque, New Mexico); and Redefining the Basic Analytical and Simulation Environment Foundation and Expansion III for $11.37 million (awarded March 8, 2024, completion February 20, 2026, performed in Albuquerque, New Mexico). The original solicitation, posted as a Special Notice on April 3, 2020, sought industry input to inform the acquisition strategy for advancing physics-based modeling and simulation research through multi-domain capabilities, foundational framework evolution, and rapid capability delivery. The Air Force Research Laboratory anticipated utilizing a multi-award approach with 6-12 month task orders, though the ultimately awarded contract represents a single-award vehicle supporting critical technological development across the Defense department's modeling and simulation infrastructure.
