The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), a component of the Department of Defense, awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), a nonprofit research and development organization, for "Combating Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) Technology Development." The single-award contract has a ceiling value of $400,000,000 and a period of performance through June 17, 2028. Under this IDC, DTRA has issued multiple delivery orders to SwRI for a range of technical services and research support, including engineering campaigns, test and evaluation, and subject matter expertise across areas like hypersonics, electronic warfare, space systems, and nuclear technology. The delivery orders, which are predominantly cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts without set-asides, leverage SwRI's broad scientific and engineering capabilities to advance DTRA's mission of countering weapons of mass destruction threats. SwRI has engaged various subcontractors to provide specialized equipment, materials, and supporting services for these efforts.
The IDC and its associated task orders demonstrate SwRI's position as a trusted technical service provider for the federal government. In addition to its work with DTRA, SwRI holds multiple Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDVs) with other agencies like the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, enabling efficient procurement of its expertise across defense and civilian domains. SwRI's proven track record of securing prime contracts, subcontracts, and grants from a diverse set of federal agencies reflects its ability to compete effectively in full and open competitions while delivering innovative solutions to support government missions.
