About this IDV
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) awarded Gray Analytics, Inc., a Huntsville, Alabama-based defense contractor, a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $56.9 million on September 14, 2021, with an ultimate completion date of September 13, 2026. This unrestricted competition contract, with no set-aside designation, establishes a vehicle for research and development services focused on Kill Vehicle Hardware-in-the-Loop (KV HWIL) capabilities. Gray Analytics, a for-profit subchapter S corporation specializing in advanced engineering, modeling, simulation, and analytical services for defense applications, will leverage its core competencies to support the MDA's ballistic missile defense technology development initiatives. The contract was issued pursuant to a broad agency announcement posted on April 2, 2019, which solicited white papers and research proposals across multiple advanced technology domains including radar and RF systems, sensors, directed energy, computer science, modeling and simulation, and artificial intelligence, with evaluation criteria encompassing technical soundness, management approach, key personnel qualifications, and cost realism.
Under this IDV, the MDA has issued two delivery orders to Gray Analytics as of the information provided. The initial delivery order, awarded September 15, 2021, valued at approximately $8.6 million, supported KV HWIL research and development through December 31, 2022. A subsequent delivery order, awarded September 20, 2022, valued at $34.9 million on a cost-plus-fixed-fee basis, extends through May 31, 2026 and will be performed in Huntsville, Alabama. These delivery orders enable the MDA to procure specialized technical expertise in test and evaluation methodologies for kill vehicle systems—critical components of the nation's ballistic missile defense architecture. Gray Analytics' contracted work supports the Agency's development of advanced testing capabilities that facilitate the assessment of missile defense interceptor performance and the validation of cyber resiliency, thereby supplementing the MDA's organic capabilities in modernizing U.S. ballistic missile defense systems.
