The Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA), a nonprofit organization that operates Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs), has been awarded a $1.424 billion Indefinite Delivery Contract by the Office of the Secretary of Defense. This IDV enables IDA to provide research, analysis, technical assessments, and other services to the Department of Defense and other federal agencies across a wide range of areas including artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, space systems, and public health.
Under this IDV, IDA has received numerous task orders from civilian and defense agencies such as the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, Department of Energy, and NASA. The task orders, which do not have set-aside designations, cover a variety of services including policy analysis, program evaluation, marketplace assessments, and technical support. IDA often engages subcontractors to contribute specialized capabilities for these federal contracts. The task orders issued against the IDV demonstrate IDA's trusted position as a partner to the U.S. government, leveraging its multidisciplinary expertise to deliver independent and rigorous research to inform critical policy and programmatic decisions.
