About this IDV
DARPA awarded an Other Transaction IDV to HRL Laboratories, LLC for Cavity Based Absolute Velocimetry Using Earth's B-field Via Attonewton Force Transduction (CAVEBAT) on July 19, 2024, with a ceiling of $1,994,049. The agreement operates under Other Transaction authority outside the FAR. HRL Laboratories is a research and development laboratory jointly owned by The Boeing Company and General Motors, specializing in advanced-technology research and prototype engineering across quantum computing, infrared sensing, additive manufacturing, and specialized electronics for defense agencies.
The CAVEBAT effort supports DARPA's advanced research in precision measurement and velocity detection using novel physical principles. HRL operates as a large-business prime contractor with no SBA set-aside certifications, competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements. DARPA is HRL's dominant customer, accounting for 32 percent of the company's total awards by count and 57 percent by combined potential value across a portfolio that emphasizes applied research and exploratory development.
HRL holds four active DARPA Other Transaction IDVs alongside CAVEBAT, including WISEST (Wireless Sensing of Strain and Temperature) at $995 thousand, PROPHET (Proximitized Patterned Heterostructures) at $874 thousand, and an electronically tunable infrared transparent optical materials effort at $999 thousand. The company operates almost exclusively as a prime contractor, with 97 percent of its awards held in that capacity and minimal subcontracting activity focused on specialized technical support and academic partnerships.
