The key products and services being delivered under this federal contract IDV award pertain to advanced research and development efforts for the Department of the Air Force. The prime contractor, Georgia TECH Applied Research Corp (GTARC), is a non-profit research organization that frequently supports major defense programs as both a prime and subcontractor.
Through this single-award $85 million IDV contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory, GTARC is performing work across a range of technical domains, including threat simulation systems, radar technologies, electronic warfare, autonomous systems, and more. Specific task orders awarded to date total over $15.8 million and involve integrating hardware-in-the-loop for the Golden Horde program, providing research and development services for the Golden Hoard initiative, and integrating autonomy payloads and conducting flight testing for the Countermeasure Autonomous Launch and Mission Delivery program. The work is being conducted at various locations including Atlanta, Georgia, Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, and Herndon, Virginia. GTARC's status as a non-profit educational institution likely contributed to the absence of any set-aside designations for this contract. The Air Force utilizes this flexible IDV vehicle to rapidly access GTARC's specialized expertise in support of its overall mission.
