About the company

The American Center of Research, Incorporated (American Center of Research Division), headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia, is a tax-exempt non-profit organization that operates as a federal grant recipient — not a federal contractor — delivering archaeological research, cultural heritage preservation, and educational programming focused on Jordan and the Middle East region. The organization holds no federal contracts and functions exclusively as a prime recipient on project grants from civilian agencies; it does not subcontract on federal awards.

ACOR's capability portfolio centers on archaeological site conservation, restoration of Roman and Nabataean cultural heritage, scholarly research documentation, anti-smuggling training for foreign antiquities authorities, Arabic language and cultural immersion programs for American educators and scholars, and digital archiving of research materials. Representative recent work includes a $1.6 million project grant from the Department of State Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (awarded October 1, 2025, completion September 30, 2027) for preservation and documentation of the Palace and Port of Kallirhoe on the Dead Sea; a $410,522 grant from the same bureau (awarded April 15, 2026, completion April 14, 2028) for conservation and restoration of the Roman Imperial Western Theater at Umm Qais in ancient Gadara, Jordan; a $300,000 block grant from the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education (awarded August 1, 2024) for intensive Arabic language and cultural training in Amman under the Fulbright-Hays Group Projects Abroad program (CFDA 84.021); and a $201,446 grant from USAID under the Foreign Assistance to American Schools and Hospitals Abroad program (awarded October 1, 2024) for cultural heritage preservation, language training, and international scholarly exchanges.

Customer concentration sits heavily with cultural and educational agencies. The Department of State Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs leads with five awards, the National Endowment for the Humanities holds six awards (long-term research fellowships and publication projects), and the Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education accounts for five awards. USAID and the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs round out the active set. Combined obligated dollars across all twenty-one prime awards total $23.6 million. Three awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Activity increased materially in 2024 (seven awards) after a quiet 2022–2023 period, with most recent work anchored to State Department cultural preservation initiatives and federal education grant programs supporting overseas field research and language instruction in the Middle East.
