The NRL-ITD RDT&E and Technical Services Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, awarded by the Naval Research Laboratory's Information Technology Division, provides comprehensive research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) technical services. The contract supports a wide range of scientific and technological initiatives critical to naval research and development, with a shared ceiling of $245,000,000. Task orders under this vehicle cover multiple domains including information technology infrastructure, high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, network communications, and computer systems security. The contract enables the Office of Naval Research to rapidly procure specialized technical services and research support from multiple qualified contractors.

The task orders demonstrate a consistent pattern of cost-plus fixed fee delivery orders, typically ranging from approximately $2.9 million to $92.1 million in potential ceiling value, with performance periods spanning 2-3 years. Prime contractors frequently include Peraton Inc. (formerly Harris), The Keyw Corporation, Analex Corporation (Arcfield), Zurka Interactive LLC, and Sotera Defense Solutions. The majority of task orders do not utilize small business set-asides, indicating these are primarily large business opportunities. Most work is performed in Washington, DC, with the Office of Naval Research serving as the consistent funding agency. Subcontractors often include specialized technology firms and small businesses providing niche expertise in areas such as cybersecurity, software development, data analytics, and advanced networking technologies.
