The company has established a substantial federal contracting footprint, receiving over $20 million in aggregate federal contract and grant awards while maintaining an active presence as both a prime contractor and subcontractor to various federal agencies. Carnegie Learning's core competencies center on mathematics curriculum development, world language instruction resources, English language arts materials, and related teacher professional development services designed specifically for military-connected students and other federal education systems.

Carnegie Learning Inc. has delivered an extensive portfolio of goods and services through federal prime contracts, with the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) serving as its primary contracting partner. The company's contract work encompasses high-school and middle-school mathematics core curriculum and laboratory resources, including algebra 1, geometry, and algebra 2 instructional materials; middle-school student resources; secondary mathematics formative assessment resources; English language arts digital resources aligned to Common Core State Standards for grades 6-8; and world language curriculum materials spanning French, Italian, German, and heritage Spanish instruction for grades 6-12. Recent significant delivery orders include a $2.01 million award issued on September 3, 2025, for digital resources, product training, virtual professional learning, and industry-standard technical support aligned to college and career readiness, and a $2.1 million delivery order issued on September 2, 2025, for digital English language arts resources. Additionally, Carnegie Learning received a $10,968.20 purchase order from the Bureau of Indian Education for subscription, licensing, and training services at the BIE-Sanostee Day School. All identified contract awards carry no set-aside designations, reflecting Carnegie Learning's status as a full-service, competitive federal contractor. The company performs work from its Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania headquarters and delivers materials globally to support DoDEA's network of military-operated schools in both continental United States and overseas locations.

Carnegie Learning Inc. has participated in federal grant programs through both prime grant awards and subcontract arrangements with other grantee organizations. As a prime grantee, Carnegie Learning received a $393,616 National Science Foundation project grant beginning August 1, 2022, to develop the Experiments as a Service Infrastructure (EASI), which enables randomized experiments comparing alternative digital learning experiences and analyzing resulting data to enhance student learning outcomes. The five-year award supports three complementary research areas: designing field experiments investigating learning theories and instructional improvements; conducting sophisticated analysis of experiment results to determine effective interventions for different student subgroups; and developing algorithms that dynamically analyze experiment data to enhance learning for future students. Carnegie Learning also holds a project grant from the Institute of Education Sciences, awarded September 1, 2021, focused on MATHia, a digital learning platform supporting core and supplemental instruction in middle and high school mathematics, with a completion date of August 31, 2026. In subgrant arrangements, Carnegie Learning served as a sub-awardee to Carnegie Mellon University beginning October 31, 2024, for work involving modeling and data collection for recommendation systems, technical implementation of orchestration tools, and integration of recommender and polling systems within the MATHia platform. Additionally, Carnegie Learning received subgrant funding from the State of Maryland under the ESSER II/ESSER III program (December 29, 2022) to support learning loss recovery and student achievement acceleration through the Maryland Leads Partner Program, and from CAST Inc. (October 20, 2021) to develop MARACAS (Math And Reading Acquisition Co-Adaptive System), which embeds reading supports within the MATHia adaptive mathematics learning system using artificial intelligence to provide personalized student and teacher interventions.

Carnegie Learning Inc. holds four Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Department of Defense Education Activity, representing a diverse range of curriculum and support services for military-connected students. The most recent IDV agreements, both awarded July 25, 2025, include a single-award contract with a ceiling value of $2,153,580.80 extending through July 24, 2030, for digital English Language Arts resources for middle school grades 6-8 aligned to Common Core State Standards, and a second single-award contract valued at $2,066,858.80 through July 24, 2030, for grades 9-12 digital resources aligned to college and career readiness standards, including product training, virtual professional learning, and technical support. An older indefinite delivery contract, awarded August 20, 2021, with a ceiling value of $5,704,341.72 and completion date of August 19, 2027, addresses high school mathematics core curriculum and laboratory resources spanning algebra 1, geometry, and algebra 2, which has generated over $3.3 million in delivery orders to date. Another IDV awarded August 20, 2021, valued at $5,358,456.70 through August 19, 2027, and set aside for small businesses, covers middle school grades 6-8 mathematics core curriculum resources and has generated over $4 million in delivery orders for grade-specific mathematics materials at domestic and overseas locations. A fifth single-award IDV, awarded July 15, 2024, valued at $430,712.40 through July 14, 2030, and designated as a total small business set-aside, provides world language instructional resources specifically for heritage Spanish instruction. These indefinite delivery contract vehicles enable DoDEA to efficiently procure Carnegie Learning's curriculum solutions, adaptive learning platforms, and ancillary professional development services through structured delivery orders, ensuring reliable access to standards-aligned educational materials across multiple subject areas and grade levels for military-operated schools globally.
