About this IDV
This Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (OT IDV) was awarded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), a defense agency, to Florida State University (FSU). The $999,948 IDV provides a flexible mechanism for DARPA to engage FSU in early-stage research potentially leading to breakthrough technologies for reducing drag on maritime vessels and aircraft. The IDV is focused on the "DREAMS: Dolphin-Inspired Drag Reduction with Advanced Metasurfaces" research project, which aims to develop biomimetic materials and advanced drag reduction technologies inspired by dolphins. While no specific task orders have been reported under this IDV, it establishes a framework for DARPA to issue future task orders to FSU for relevant research activities. As a non-profit, educational institution, FSU has demonstrated significant capabilities in executing complex scientific research and technological development projects for various federal agencies, including NASA, NIH, NSF, DOD, and DOE.
The OT IDV does not utilize any set-aside designations and represents prime contract work between DARPA and FSU. Given the agency's focus on advanced research and development, the IDV likely aims to support early-stage, innovative work that could lead to transformative capabilities in maritime and aviation applications. The flexible nature of the OT vehicle allows DARPA to quickly engage FSU's multidisciplinary expertise to explore promising biomimetic and metamaterial technologies without the constraints of traditional procurement methods.
