About this IDV

North Carolina State University was awarded a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Other Transaction (OT) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract on August 1, 2024, with a ceiling value of $9.3 million to conduct research, development, testing, and evaluation services in ultra-wide bandgap semiconductors technology. This multiple-award contract vehicle employs the Other Transaction authority, which provides procurement flexibility and rapid response capabilities that exceed those available under traditional federal contract instruments. The contract enables DARPA to issue task orders for various research and development activities related to semiconductor materials and advanced devices without requiring separate competitive solicitations for each task order.

The contracted research and development services leverage North Carolina State University's established expertise in materials science, engineering, and advanced manufacturing to advance next-generation semiconductor technologies applicable to high-power, high-frequency, and high-temperature electronic systems critical to defense modernization and national security objectives. Ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor technologies represent a priority area for DARPA's technology development portfolio, as these materials enable enhanced performance in power conversion, signal processing, and thermal management applications essential for military platforms and defense systems. The contract was awarded without set-aside provisions on a competitive basis reflecting the technical merit of the awardee's proposed capabilities and the university's demonstrated track record in federal research and development programs across multiple scientific and engineering disciplines.
