About University Of California, LOS Angeles

University of California, Los Angeles, operating through its Office of Research Administration, is a 1862 Land Grant College and public research institution that serves as a federal research recipient and prime contractor, delivering biomedical research, advanced technology development, and specialized scientific services across 289 distinct federal agencies. UCLA operates in full-and-open competition without SBA set-aside designations; the institution's recent footprint spans 13,346 total awards (12,047 prime, 1,299 sub) with combined potential value of $1.31 billion and obligated dollars of $17.94 billion, placing it among the nation's largest federal research recipients.

UCLA's customer concentration clusters heavily in research-intensive agencies. The National Institutes of Health (primarily through NIH core institutes and centers) leads by award count with 1,788 awards carrying $167 thousand combined potential value; the National Science Foundation follows with 1,449 awards. By dollar value, NASA's Shared Services Center anchors the portfolio at $200.7 million across 843 awards, followed by NIH's National Heart Lung and Blood Institute ($167.4 million across 304 awards) and the Department of Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery ($71.8 million across 204 awards). Activity has grown year-over-year—608 awards in 2022 to 896 in 2024—though 2025 and 2026 show moderation (669 and 287 awards respectively), with 909 awards totaling $83.5 million in potential value reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore subject to recompete.

UCLA's prime award footprint skews heavily toward research grants and basic science contracts. Recent representative work includes a $5 million Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency definitive contract (March 2026) for the Exponentiating Mathematics program developing AI for automated mathematical proof formalization; a $1.26 million NSF Research Training Group grant (September 2026) establishing an integrated research ecosystem in data science and statistics; a $1.75 million Defense Health Agency project grant (September 2026) for biomedical research on adeno-associated virus liver toxicity and gene therapy safety; and a $1.1 million U.S. Geological Survey definitive contract (December 2025) for Landsat Science Team research spanning Earth observation and remote sensing. Top parent vehicles include indefinite delivery contracts with the Department of Navy (184 task orders under N0014001GL634 valued at $5.8 million and 35 task orders under N0014006G0064 valued at $10.6 million). UCLA also holds positions on single-award indefinite delivery contracts with Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 for academic affiliate animal lab core services and genotyping services.

SCI-reported invoiced revenue on federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $22.2 million across FY2022–FY2024 ($10.5 million in FY2022, $5.8 million in FY2023, $5.9 million in FY2024), with government-paid median hourly rates around $164.66/hr and senior labor pricing extending through $949.48/hr. Workforce deliveries on SCI-reportable prime contracts ranged from 25.4 FTEs in FY2022 to 13.0 FTEs in FY2023 and 19.7 FTEs in FY2024. Across the SCI sample, UCLA performed 100% of contractor hours on its prime service contracts with no sub-engagement recorded. The institution is a child entity of the State of California Controller's Office and operates as a public higher-education institution under California state control.

UCLA's federal research portfolio is organized around biomedical sciences (NIH dominance in neuroscience, cancer, infectious disease, and metabolic disorders), space science and Earth observation (NASA), fundamental physics and mathematics (NSF and DOE), defense research sciences (DARPA, ONR, Army), and clinical and translational research. The institution does not compete under small-business set-asides; its competitive posture is full-and-open across all customer agencies. As a major public research university with extensive federal partnerships and sophisticated administrative infrastructure for research contracting and grant management, UCLA functions as a primary federal research partner and technology development platform for civilian and defense agencies.
