About this IDV
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) awarded a multiple-award Other Transaction IDV to Leidos, Inc. (operating as SAIC under its Leidos Solutions Operating Segment) on December 12, 2023, with a ceiling value of approximately $3.99 million. This vehicle supports the Rapid Experimental Missionized Autonomy (REMA) program, which focuses on enhancing commercially available and stock military drones with autonomous operation subsystems. The contract was awarded on a full and open basis with no set-aside designation, reflecting Leidos' status as an established large business prime contractor. As a multiple-award IDV, this vehicle provides DARPA with flexible procurement authority to issue task orders for autonomous systems development and integration work across the program's performance period.
REMA represents DARPA's strategic investment in rapid advancement of autonomous capabilities for unmanned aerial systems, enabling the integration of autonomous operation subsystems into existing drone platforms to reduce pilot workload, extend mission capabilities, and enhance operational effectiveness. Leidos' extensive background in autonomous systems engineering, advanced sensor integration, and research and development positions the company to deliver systems integration and technical development support for this emerging technology initiative. The contract structure as an Other Transaction agreement provides DARPA with expedited procurement flexibility typical of advanced research and development efforts, allowing for rapid iteration and demonstration of autonomous technologies that may inform broader military autonomous systems development across the Department of Defense.
