About University Of Utah

University of Utah, operating through its Office of Sponsored Projects Division, is a state-supported research institution and educational entity that serves as a prime recipient of federal research grants and a prime contractor delivering medical services, research infrastructure support, and specialized clinical services to civilian and veterans affairs agencies. The institution competes in full-and-open federal procurements; it is not designated under small-business set-asides and does not market itself as a small or disadvantaged business.

The University of Utah's federal footprint is anchored in research and development across biomedical sciences, health services, engineering, physical sciences, and mathematics. The institution operates as a comprehensive research university, delivering grant-funded investigator-initiated basic and translational research, clinical trials, educational training programs, and specialized medical and laboratory services. Recent representative grant work includes National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases studies in T cell immunology and vaccine development, National Cancer Institute-funded cancer prevention and treatment research, National Heart Lung and Blood Institute cardiovascular studies, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development pediatric research and clinical device development, and National Science Foundation collaborative research in quantum computing, spectrum sharing, and materials science. On the contract side, the University of Utah holds a single-award indefinite-delivery contract with Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 valued at $11.188 million through July 2030, under which it has issued delivery orders for heart transplant services ($7.489 million), MRI research support ($140 thousand–$458 thousand per order), medical research cores ($10 thousand), radiopharmaceutical services ($196 thousand), and histocompatability testing ($293 thousand). The institution also holds contracts with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for emergency medical services research ($7.991 million), the U.S. Geological Survey for Landsat science team support ($978 thousand), the Bureau of Land Management for archaeological curation ($500 thousand), the Indian Health Service for telestroke services, and NASA for optical device development ($579 thousand).

Customer concentration is distributed across a large federal research ecosystem. The top five funders by award count—National Science Foundation (942 awards), National Institutes of Health (742 awards), National Cancer Institute (326 awards), NASA (266 awards), and National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (262 awards)—account for 34% of recent awards. By potential dollar value, the National Cancer Institute leads at $820.9 million combined potential value across 326 awards, followed by Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 at $317.2 million (253 awards), the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development at $229.9 million (187 awards), and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke at $86.5 million (191 awards). The institution maintains active relationships with 286 distinct customer agencies, reflecting its position as a broad-based federal research partner rather than a vendor concentrated in a single agency or mission.

Service Contract Inventory data shows SCI-reportable invoiced revenue of $34.1 million across FY2022–FY2024 (prime contracts only), with $13.1 million in FY2022, $8.1 million in FY2023, and $12.9 million in FY2024, corresponding to roughly 60, 43, and 72 FTEs respectively. These figures represent only federal service contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold and exclude research grants, goods procurements, and the institution's total enterprise revenue. Government-paid hourly rates for contractor labor run a median of $73.44/hour, with rates spanning from $43.96/hour at the 10th percentile to $335.96/hour at the 90th percentile, reflecting a workforce mix from research technicians through senior faculty and specialized clinical personnel.

The institution operates predominantly as a prime contractor and grant recipient (88% of awards); 12% are subcontract awards. The subcontract footprint shows University of Utah delivering research support and biostatistical services as a sub-recipient under prime grants from the University of Pennsylvania (cancer immunotherapy research), the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (pediatric clinical trials data coordination), Columbia University (observational studies), Northwestern University (HIV implementation science and clinical trial design), and Duke University (clinical outcomes research). These arrangements typically position the University of Utah in a research site, data management, or specialized services capacity within larger multicenter trials and studies.

Activity has moderated after a period of growth: 372 awards in 2022 grew to 633 in 2024, then declined to 504 in 2025 and 198 through mid-2026. Within the next twenty-four months, 602 awards (combined potential value $87.7 million) reach ultimate completion and face recompete, concentrated in medical research, clinical services, and research infrastructure domains.
