About this IDV
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) awarded a $1,000,000 Other Transaction (OT) Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contract to The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC (APL) to support research into "CURRENT CAUSAL INFLUENCE NARRATIVE PATTERNS AND PATHWAYS." As a not-for-profit research center affiliated with The Johns Hopkins University, APL has significant expertise providing engineering, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and other research and development services to national security and scientific agencies. This OT IDV allows DARPA to issue task orders for APL to leverage its specialized capabilities and quickly advance critical national security objectives. While the original solicitation details are not provided, the general scope appears to involve developing greater understanding of causal narrative patterns that influence current events and decision-making. This work likely aims to enhance DARPA's ability to anticipate and respond to emerging threats. The award has no set-aside and a performance period beginning August 1, 2022.
The Johns Hopkins University, APL's parent organization, also holds several other federal contracts and grants that demonstrate its extensive experience supporting a wide range of U.S. government agencies and initiatives. This includes a $86 million Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to provide immunization safety research and consultation services through task orders. Collectively, The Johns Hopkins University and APL's portfolio of federal work spans biomedical research, public health, engineering, scientific analysis, and other mission-critical areas for national defense and civil agencies.
