About the company
Advanced Research, Inc., a Bozeman, Montana-based small business, manufactures quantum photonics and advanced optical components for federal research agencies as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The company operates exclusively as a prime (100% of recent awards) and has received eight federal contracts worth $8.3 million combined potential value since January 2024, with $8 million obligated to date (96% of potential value).
Advanced Research's capability portfolio centers on waveguide-based quantum light sources, entangled photon generation, and quantum sensing components tailored for defense research and fundamental science applications. Representative work includes a $2 million Army SBIR Phase II contract awarded March 31, 2026, for quantum-enhanced RF component development (NAICS 541715, nanotechnology and biotechnology research and development); a $1.25 million Air Force Research Laboratory STTR II contract awarded September 25, 2024, for waveguide-based pulsed sources of entangled photons at 780 nanometers with density matrix characterization; a $1.25 million Air Force Research Laboratory STTR II contract awarded September 20, 2024, for fully packaged waveguide-based biphoton sources with high brightness and heralding efficiency; and an $849,934 STTR Phase II contract from the Shared Services Center awarded January 4, 2024, for high-brightness, waveguide-based infrared quantum light sources. A $1.2 million Naval Strategic Systems Programs contract awarded March 30, 2026, under 873 Authority, rounds out the core defense research footprint. The company also supplies specialized optical components such as PPLN waveguide chips to the Air Force Research Laboratory ($40,080 purchase order, September 2025) and visible light phase and amplitude modulators for quantum sensors to the Shared Services Center ($849,878 SBIR Phase II, July 2024).
Customer concentration splits evenly between two agencies. The NASA Shared Services Center (three awards, $2.5 million combined potential value) and the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory (three awards, $2.5 million combined potential value) together account for 100% of recent awards; the Department of the Army and the Department of the Navy Strategic Systems Programs each represent one award. Work is performed entirely in Bozeman, Montana. Activity has slowed since 2024 — four awards that year, two in 2025, two in 2026 — with five awards (combined potential value $6.5 million) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, exposing the vendor to concurrent recompete risk across roughly 78% of its current contract value. Advanced Research has no subcontract footprint and does not sit on government-wide vehicles or agency-wide IDIQs; all eight awards are direct prime contracts issued under individual solicitations.
