University Of Utah

University of Utah's Income Accounting division (a child entity within the University of Utah's Office of Sponsored Projects) operates as a prime contractor on federal education, research, and animal research support contracts and as a subcontractor on federally funded research grants, serving civilian and defense agencies without set-aside designation. The division is a state-controlled institution of higher learning headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, and competes on full-and-open federal procurements.

The Income Accounting division's federal footprint centers on education and animal research delivery. Prime contract work includes tuition and fees for Naval Reserve Officers' Training Corps (NROTC) midshipmen and sailors (Department of the Navy Bureau of Naval Personnel, multiple delivery orders between $2,078 and $466,196 per order), animal research support for the Department of Veterans Affairs (a single-award indefinite delivery contract ceiling of $947,115 running through June 2027, with multiple delivery orders performed at VA facilities in Salt Lake City and Allegheny-West, Pennsylvania), educational services through a basic ordering agreement with the Navy (Educational Service Agreements ranging from $263,917 to $372,599), and specialized research and development on scientific instrumentation. Representative R&D work includes a $579.8 thousand NASA Langley Research Center contract (awarded September 2025, completion September 2028) for development of a Diffractive Filter Array component for the Hyperspectral Planetary Imaging Explorer instrument under NASA's Planetary Instrument Concepts for the Advancement of Solar System Observations program, a $240.2 thousand definitive contract with an unnamed civilian federal agency (awarded September 2024, completion September 2027) for Rocky Mountain Cancer Data Systems (RMCDS) software support serving fifteen state cancer registries, and a $58.4 thousand Department of Veterans Affairs R&D contract for virtual reality haptic glove development. The division also holds a $432.6 thousand purchase order from the Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations (awarded December 2024, completion December 2027) and a $64 thousand lease arrangement with Veterans Integrated Service Network 19 for medical imaging equipment.

Customer concentration sits with the Department of the Navy, which accounts for 35 awards (36% of awards, 78% of combined potential value). The top five funding agencies by potential value are the Department of the Navy Naval Education and Training Command ($2.1 million across 17 awards), the Department of the Navy Bureau of Naval Personnel ($1.8 million across 9 awards), the Department of the Navy Bureau of Naval Personnel Chief of Naval Personnel ($1.7 million across 8 awards), the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 ($1.3 million across 6 awards), and the Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command ($424 thousand across 16 awards). The division serves 36 distinct federal agencies, indicating broader engagement beyond the Navy concentration.

The division places work under five principal parent vehicles: an Air Force indefinite delivery contract (F0160079D0338, 21 task orders, $424 thousand combined potential value), a Navy indefinite delivery contract (N0014006G0073, 18 task orders, $2.3 million), a Navy basic ordering agreement (N0018919GZ069, 15 task orders, $3.2 million), a Department of Homeland Security indefinite delivery contract (36C24E23D0012, 5 task orders, $322 thousand), and a Navy basic ordering agreement (N0061285G0056, 3 task orders). The top vehicles anchor the division's defense and civilian education footprint.

Activity has grown materially in recent years. The award trajectory shows 9 awards in 2022, flat in 2023, then growth to 26 awards in 2024 and 15 in 2025. The combined potential value across all 165 prime and sub awards is $9.3 million, with combined obligated dollars at $22.3 million (240% of potential value), indicating that actual delivery has outpaced ceiling values. In the next twenty-four months, 2 awards (combined potential value $673 thousand) reach ultimate completion date, creating modest recompete exposure.

The division operates as a prime contractor on 67% of awards (111 of 165) and as a subcontractor on 33% (54 awards). Grant sub-award activity is substantial; the division subcontracts to leading research universities including Emory University (multiple neurovascular, immunology, and epilepsy-related research sub-awards), Northwestern University (exercise and artificial intelligence testbed sub-awards), Indiana University (clinical trial and cancer research training sub-awards), and the University of California, Davis (viral replication and mosquito vector surveillance sub-awards). On the contract side, the division subs to KRI at Northeastern University (on a Department of Defense research effort studying non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation effects on neural tissue) and to the University of Alabama at Birmingham (on targeted clinical research for viral infections). The SCI dataset shows minimal direct invoiced revenue ($0 reported in FY2025) and very low FTE staffing (0.1 FTEs as prime in FY2025, 1.0 FTEs as sub in FY2022), indicating the division operates primarily as a fiscal and administrative pass-through rather than as a direct labor-delivering service contractor. The division does not carry subcontractors on its own prime deliveries (0% sub-hours share on SCI-reportable prime contracts), suggesting it builds internal delivery capacity or leverages parent institution expertise for prime work.

By NAICS, 63 awards fall under Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools; 9 awards under Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences; and the remainder under computer services, physician offices, and other categories. By PSC, education and training fees dominate (69 awards), followed by veterinary and animal care support (6 awards), books and pamphlets (5 awards), and administrative support (4 awards).
