About this IDV
The STEP 2.0 Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is a $237.6 million multiple-award vehicle awarded by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) to Utah State University Space Dynamics Laboratory (SDL), a non-profit applied research organization. The contract provides SDL with the capability to execute delivery orders that align with payload access to space, space vehicle, and launch vehicle schedules. The contract period extends from April 30, 2025, through April 29, 2035, establishing a ten-year vehicle for space-related technical services and solutions. SDL, a university-affiliated research center located in North Logan, Utah, specializes in advanced research, engineering, integration, testing, and analytical support across space systems, defense technologies, sensors, and related domains. No set-aside designation was applied to this contract, reflecting SDL's status as a large non-profit research institution.
A delivery order executed under this IDV on May 30, 2025, illustrates the contract's operational application. This $10,000 firm-fixed-price delivery order, scheduled for completion by June 27, 2025, required SDL to provide spacecraft and ground technical specification sheet deliverables as defined in Section M of the IDIQ contract. Performance of this task order took place in Albuquerque, New Mexico, demonstrating AFRL's utilization of the vehicle for near-term technical documentation and specification requirements supporting space operations. The STEP 2.0 contract vehicle positions SDL to support the Air Force Research Laboratory's broader mission requirements for space access, vehicle development, and launch operations through a flexible indefinite delivery contracting mechanism.
