About this IDV
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to Applied Research Associates, Inc. (ARA), a for-profit Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, for Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction Research and Technology Development. The $4 billion IDIQ contract, awarded December 3, 2013 with an ultimate completion date of December 2, 2023, establishes a vehicle through which DTRA procures research and development services to address non-proliferation, counterproliferation, and consequence management objectives. The contract explicitly excludes advisory and assistance services and represents DTRA's primary mechanism for acquiring specialized technical capabilities in weapons of mass destruction mitigation across nuclear, chemical, biological, and radiological domains. No set-aside designation was used for this award, reflecting open competition for the contract vehicle. Work is performed at multiple locations, with primary operations at ARA's Albuquerque, New Mexico facility, supplemented by performance sites at Arlington, Virginia; Fort Belvoir, Virginia; and Raleigh, North Carolina.
Under this IDIQ vehicle, DTRA has issued numerous delivery orders totaling over $1.2 billion in cumulative value, directing ARA to execute research, modeling and simulation, software development, systems engineering, test and evaluation, and specialized technical consulting across the weapons of mass destruction spectrum. Representative task order efforts include nuclear weapons effects modeling and simulation (Nuclear Capabilities Services Program valued at $46.6 million), target assessment technologies support ($98.9 million), combating weapons of mass destruction analysis and planning tool development ($418.2 million), nuclear survivability analysis, electromagnetic reliability and effects prediction, hazard prediction and assessment capability integration, and wargaming experimental prototyping. ARA executes these delivery orders through a collaborative subcontracting network incorporating specialized firms such as Booz Allen Hamilton, Triad National Security, Dynamic Systems and Research Corporation, and numerous small business vendors providing complementary technical expertise in cloud infrastructure, software development, sensors, testing equipment, and analytical support. The cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure across all delivery orders enables flexibility in resource allocation while maintaining cost accountability, appropriate for the research and development nature of weapons effects analysis and modeling work supporting national security strategy and policy development.
