About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Chemical Biological Center (DEVCOM CBC) intends to award a no-cost, in-kind cooperative agreement with the Maryland Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO). This sole-source partnership is being awarded non-competitively under 32 CFR 22.305(b)(2), specifically targeting technology transition efforts aligned with Department of Defense mission needs. TEDCO is uniquely qualified due to its status as an independent instrumentality of the State of Maryland and its dual-sector expertise. The primary evaluation criteria focus on TEDCO's regional integration, embedded support functions, and unmatched qualifications that make competitive solicitation impracticable. The grant opportunity was posted on September 17, 2025, with a response deadline of October 2, 2025, under the Basic, Applied, and Advanced Research in Science and Engineering program (CFDA 12.630).
The cooperative agreement will be structured as a no-cost arrangement, with performance likely occurring within Maryland's technology ecosystem. While specific award values are not detailed, the associated federal grant program typically supports research initiatives ranging from $100,000 to $1,000,000 with performance periods spanning 1-5 years. The agreement falls under the Department of Defense's research funding mechanism, specifically managed by the Washington Headquarters Service. The primary objective is to support research with potential long-term contributions to Department of Defense technological missions, with a focus on scientific and engineering advancements. The place of performance will primarily be within TEDCO's facilities and associated research networks in Maryland.
Synopsis
The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Chemical Biological Center (DEVCOM CBC) intends to award a no-cost, in-kind cooperative agreement with the Maryland Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO), awarded non-competitively under 32 CFR § 22.305(b)(2). TEDCO's designation as an independent instrumentality of the State of Maryland, its embedded support functions, and its dual-sector expertise uniquely position it to accelerate technology transition efforts aligned with DoD mission needs. Given TEDCO's unmatched qualifications and regional integration, competitive solicitation is deemed impracticable.
