About this IDV
This Other Transaction IDV, awarded to Spinlaunch Inc. on April 25, 2019, represents a multiple-award prototype project vehicle with a ceiling value of $14.16 million. Funded by the Office of the Secretary of Defense (defense agency), the contract was awarded without a set-aside restriction and serves as the vehicle for prototype development activities under the Defense Innovation Unit's Small Responsive Launch (SRL) initiative. The Other Transaction authority utilized for this IDV permits the Department of Defense to pursue innovative approaches to prototype development outside traditional Federal Acquisition Regulation constraints, enabling more flexible engagement with commercial and innovative contractors. The contract has undergone administrative modification to correct a clerical error on the initial award document.
Spinlaunch Inc., identified by UEI HD17T64LGSW8, was selected as a prime contractor under this IDV to conduct research, development, and prototyping activities aligned with the SRL program's objectives of rapidly developing responsive launch capabilities. While specific task order details and performance locations are not provided in the contract documentation, the Small Responsive Launch initiative typically focuses on advancing innovative launch technologies and operational concepts to meet Department of Defense responsive space requirements. As a multiple-award vehicle, this IDV structure allows the government to issue individual task orders against the contract ceiling to fund specific prototype demonstrations and development activities supporting the Small Responsive Launch program's mission objectives.
