Humanetics Innovative Solutions, Inc.

Humanetics Innovative Solutions, Inc., doing business as First Technology Safety System, manufactures and supplies anthropomorphic test devices (crash test dummies), sensors, instrumentation, calibration services, and spare parts to federal agencies as a prime contractor on full-and-open competition terms, with no set-aside designation across its recent federal footprint. Headquartered in Farmington Hills, Michigan, the company operates manufacturing and performance facilities in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; East Liberty, Ohio; and elsewhere, delivering specialized safety testing equipment essential to occupant protection research, vehicle crashworthiness evaluation, and defense applications.

Humanetics dominates federal demand for crash test dummy hardware and calibration services across transportation safety and defense communities. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration accounts for 174 awards and $94.5 million of combined potential value — nearly 54% of all recent activity — anchored by recurring delivery orders against the DML IDIQ - HUMANETICS contract vehicle (693JJ920D000002), which has generated 21 task orders worth $20.7 million. The Department of the Army Test and Evaluation Command follows with 76 awards totaling $35 million combined potential value, placing 27 task orders against Indefinite Delivery Contract W91ZLK16D0001 ($1.8 million combined) and 25 against W91ZLK11D0007 ($5.3 million). Army Materiel Command — specifically TACOM Life Cycle Management Command and the Research Development and Engineering Command — contributes 48 awards worth $19.6 million, with recurring calibration and repair work at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland and Farmington Hills. The Air Force Air Combat Command and the Department of Veterans Affairs round out the active customer set. Within the top five customers by potential value, concentration is pronounced: NHTSA and Army Test and Evaluation Command combined account for 89% of the $176.7 million portfolio ceiling across 401 total awards. Recent award velocity has been steady — 13 awards in 2022, declining to 11 in 2023 and 2024, rebounding to 13 in 2025, with only 5 awards captured through September 2026. Only four awards with combined potential value of $356 thousand face completion within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal near-term recompete exposure.

Humanetics holds multiple prime indefinite delivery vehicles positioned to support sustained federal demand. A $3.6 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with Franchise Acquisition Services (established August 2024, extending through September 2029) authorizes ATDs, sensors, spare parts, and calibration services performed in Oklahoma City; three delivery orders totaling approximately $1.92 million have been issued to date, including a $1.533 million award in December 2025 for a THOR 50th-generation, 170-channel USNCAP anthropomorphic test device. The $1.975 million TACOM Life Cycle Management Command Indefinite Delivery Contract (June 2023 through July 2028) procures ATD components, maintenance, calibration, technical support, and repair parts at Farmington Hills, with four task orders collectively valued at approximately $231 thousand through July 2025. The $3.51 million Army Test and Evaluation Command single-award IDV (August 2022, ultimate completion August 2025) has generated three delivery orders worth approximately $75 thousand for calibration and repair at Aberdeen Proving Ground and Fort Rucker. The Air Force Air Combat Command's $156,310 Blanket Purchase Agreement (April 2022 through April 2027) supports sensor calibration services under the 846TS program, with seven task orders valued between $2,945 and $7,526 each, collectively representing approximately $38,551 against the ceiling.

Humanetics' federal work concentrates on crash test dummy hardware procurement, replacement components, sensor calibration, recertification services, and finite-element modeling software licenses supporting occupant protection research. Named representative awards include a $6.536 million September 2024 definitive contract from Air Force Materiel Command for 14 JPATS-configured Hybrid III-4 anthropomorphic test dummies to Holloman AFB and Wright-Patterson AFB; a $3.286 million September 2022 sole-source delivery order from NHTSA for Advanced 5th Female ATD revisions (performance through January 2026); a $3.057 million September 2024 NHTSA delivery order for THOR-50M crash test dummies; a $4 million September 2025 NHTSA delivery order for specialized testing equipment and services; a $230 thousand July 2025 TACOM Definitive Contract for three Hybrid III finite-element model licenses for LS-DYNA; a $210 thousand September 2025 Army Research Development and Engineering Command purchase order for a Class 4 renewal license of a Hybrid III 50th Finite Element Model for ANSYS LS Dyna; a $76,559 March 2025 Department of Veterans Affairs purchase order for force sensors for pedestrian dummy testing; and recurring calibration-and-repair task orders ranging from $15,753 to $66,741 across Army commands. The company competes without small business set-aside restrictions, indicating it holds no 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, or other SBA designations in its recent award history.

Subcontract activity is negligible — one sub-award appears in the source data, a Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory sub-award for RDT&E supporting PEO Soldier in August 2024, representing less than one percent of the portfolio footprint. Humanetics operates predominantly as a prime contractor, with 400 of 401 total awards issued directly to the company.
