Dunlap And Associates, Inc. is a research and consulting firm specializing in behavioral safety research, primarily focused on transportation and traffic safety initiatives. Located in Stamford, Connecticut, the company provides comprehensive research services to federal agencies, with a particular emphasis on developing data-driven solutions to reduce traffic fatalities and injuries. The company is a for-profit organization registered in SAM.gov since 2001, with expertise in applying human factors, systems analysis, and risk management techniques to complex safety challenges across various transportation-related domains.

The company has an extensive history of prime federal contract work predominantly with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), conducting research across multiple traffic safety focus areas. Their contract work includes naturalistic driving studies, investigations of driver behaviors, technology assessments, and safety intervention research. Projects have encompassed diverse topics such as distracted driving, impaired driving, pedestrian safety, motorcycle safety, emergency medical services, and novice driver behaviors. Most of their contracts are delivery orders under indefinite delivery vehicles, with contract values ranging from approximately $200,000 to $7.7 million. The majority of these contracts have no specific set-aside designation, though one $7.7 million contract was designated as a total small business set-aside.

Regarding federal grant awards, Dunlap And Associates, Inc. has served as a subrecipient on at least two notable grants. One significant subgrant was with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where they supported research protocol development, IRB approval processes, staff training, data collection, management, and analysis. Another subcontract was with The Johns Hopkins University, where they provided support for research design, data collection, analyses, and report writing. These grant activities demonstrate the company's versatility in supporting complex medical and scientific research initiatives beyond their primary transportation safety focus.
