About this IDV
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded an Other Transaction IDV to University Of Maryland, College Park with a $2,650,000 ceiling on April 16, 2026, to support the Heterogeneous Architectures for Quantum (HARQ) program. This OT IDV sits outside the FAR and operates as a multiple-award vehicle.
University of Maryland, College Park operates as a public research university and 1862 land-grant institution delivering federal research across scientific and engineering domains. The institution competes in full-and-open federal research procurement and does not hold SBA set-aside designations. UMD's recent DARPA awards demonstrate depth in quantum computing and related advanced research: a $34.8 million delivery order for Quantum Benchmarking Initiative research under the ARLIS University Affiliate Research Center (October 2025) and a $5.31 million DARPA Other Transaction IDV focused on synthetic quantum nanostructures exemplify the institution's capability alignment with the HARQ program scope.
UMD's federal footprint spans over 11,100 awards with a combined potential value of $3.18 billion. The institution acts as prime on 94 percent of awards and builds most delivery internally using its own faculty and staff research teams, with minimal subcontractor engagement (approximately 2 percent sub-hours share on average). DARPA represents one of UMD's top customer agencies with 112 awards totaling $123.9 million in combined potential value. The institution's research concentration in R&D Space Science and Applications, coupled with established performance on DARPA quantum and materials science projects, positions it as a sustained performer in defense-sector advanced research procurement.
