About this IDV
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) awarded a Multiple Award Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle to Microsoft Corporation on September 18, 2024, with a ceiling value of $2,395,938.00 and no set-aside designation applied. This IDV supports the Synthetic Quantum Nanostructures (SYNQUANON) program, which represents DARPA's research initiative in advanced quantum materials and nanostructure development. As a parent contract vehicle, this IDV enables DARPA to issue task orders for Microsoft's technical contributions to quantum nanostructure research and development activities without conducting individual full and open competitions for each task order requirement.
Under this SYNQUANON IDV, Microsoft delivers research support, technical expertise, and potentially computational or infrastructure services related to synthetic quantum nanostructure development and characterization. DARPA's quantum research initiatives typically focus on advancing fundamental science in quantum materials, nanoengineering, and quantum-enabled technologies with potential applications across defense and intelligence communities. The multiple award structure indicates that competing contractors may also hold awards under this same vehicle, allowing DARPA to distribute quantum nanostructure research tasks among qualified providers. Microsoft's participation in this research effort complements its broader federal contracting portfolio and demonstrates the company's engagement in advanced technology research initiatives beyond its primary enterprise cloud and software service offerings.
