About the company
The University of Nebraska, operating through its Board of Regents Office of Sponsored Programs Division and doing business as University of Nebraska, is a comprehensive public land-grant research institution that acts as a prime recipient of federal grants and a prime contractor on federal research and diagnostic service contracts, with a 4,187-award footprint spanning research, education, extension, and clinical diagnostic services across 242 federal agencies. The institution competes under full-and-open federal grant solicitations and research contracts, with no set-aside designations; it receives significant federal research funding across the National Science Foundation, Department of Agriculture research and extension programs, Department of Health and Human Services research institutes, and environmental and defense agencies.
The University of Nebraska's capability portfolio centers on fundamental and applied research across life sciences, agricultural sciences, engineering, physical sciences, and education; diagnostic laboratory services for animal health through the National Animal Health Laboratory Network; weather and environmental monitoring infrastructure; extension and outreach programming; and higher education delivery. Representative work includes a $6 million Materials Research Science and Engineering Center (MRSEC) cooperative agreement from NSF to establish the Atomically Engineered Materials (ATEM) Center focused on atomic-scale control of novel materials; a $1.42 million cooperative agreement from USDA APHIS for enhanced surveillance methods for highly pathogenic avian influenza using digital PCR; a $5.14 million delivery order from NOAA for regional long-term weather records and environmental information services; multiple NSF CAREER and collaborative research awards in materials science, computational biology, and agricultural genomics; and core support from USDA for agricultural research, extension, and education through Hatch Act, Smith-Lever, and competitive grants programs. The institution operates the National Drought Mitigation Center and serves as host office for the Great Plains Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit.
Customer concentration is distributed across federal research and civilian agencies. The top five customers by award count—National Science Foundation (688 awards), USDA NIFA (404 awards), USDA NIFA again (229 awards), USDA Agricultural Research Service (121 awards), and NIH (113 awards)—account for 37 percent of recent awards. By potential value, NOAA leads with $50.7 million across 55 awards, followed by USDA APHIS Veterinary Services with $25.6 million across 41 awards. NSF dominates the grant research portfolio with 688 awards, while NOAA and APHIS anchor contract work for diagnostic and environmental services. Activity has declined recently from 353 awards in 2024 to 124 in 2025, with only one award recorded in 2027, reflecting the nature of the source data snapshot.
The institution holds a primary role on one indefinite-delivery contract—a single-award IDIQ with USDA APHIS Veterinary Services for diagnostic testing services to the National Animal Health Laboratory Network, with a $25 million ceiling and a period of performance running through September 2031. The institution has served as prime recipient on multiple cooperative agreements with NSF (including E-CORE: Nebraska Strengthening Partnerships for Innovation, Research, and Education for $9 million), NOAA, Department of Energy, and the Forest Service, typically anchoring multi-state or regional research and service networks. The institution subcontracts research and development work to the National Strategic Research Institute on defense-related and medical countermeasure projects.
The University of Nebraska operates as a 1862 land-grant university with research, teaching, and extension missions spanning agriculture, natural resources, health, engineering, and basic sciences. The institution's subsidiary, the National Strategic Research Institute, provides research and development services focused on medical countermeasures and emerging technologies. As a public tax-exempt entity with a parent-child structure under the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska, the institution does not compete under small-business set-asides. SCI-reported invoiced revenue shows $593 thousand across four fiscal years (FY2022–FY2025) on federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold, with FTE deliveries declining from 4.8 in FY2022 to 0.3 in FY2025, reflecting a shift away from service-contract intensive delivery toward grant-based research funding. Median government-paid rates on SCI-reportable prime contracts run approximately $30/hr, with a range from $27/hr to $34/hr across the distribution. The institution performs work primarily as a prime recipient and prime contractor rather than as a subcontractor, with negligible sub-engagement across its prime contracts.
