About this IDV
Applied Research Associates, Inc. (ARA) received a multiple-award Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contract from the Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), a subordinate organization of the Department of Defense, awarded on March 20, 2023, with a ceiling value of $8.399 million. This contract (ME2022-0046) was issued without set-aside designation and establishes a framework for the procurement of specialized research, engineering, and technical consulting services. ERDC, which operates under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, utilizes Other Transaction authorities to accelerate the acquisition of innovative research and development solutions across defense-related mission areas. The contract represents one of multiple Other Transaction IDVs that ERDC has awarded to ARA, reflecting the agency's reliance on the contractor's established capabilities in advanced technical problem-solving.
Under this IDV vehicle, ARA delivers a range of research, development, test and evaluation, and engineering support services aligned with ERDC's operational priorities. Based on ERDC's historical award patterns to ARA, the contract scope encompasses technical services such as virtual environment testing, weapons effects analysis under extreme environmental conditions, test and evaluation prototype development, materials engineering solutions, and infrastructure research support. The multiple-award structure enables ERDC to issue task orders on a flexible basis for specialized technical services without committing the full ceiling value upfront. This contracting approach facilitates rapid response to emerging research and development requirements while maintaining cost controls through the established ceiling and competitive task order issuance processes typical of indefinite delivery vehicles. The contract ceiling of approximately $8.4 million positions this vehicle as a mid-level procurement instrument within ARA's broader portfolio of federal IDIQ and Other Transaction contracts spanning defense, civilian, and infrastructure resilience agencies.
