About the company

The University of New Mexico (UNM), doing business as Regents of the University of New Mexico, is a major public research institution located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. As a Hispanic-Serving Institution and state-controlled university, UNM provides a wide range of scientific research, educational, and specialized technical services to the federal government through numerous contract and grant awards. UNM leverages its expertise across disciplines such as physics, engineering, biomedicine, and social sciences to advance federal agency missions. The university operates major research facilities including the Center for High Technology Materials and provides critical workforce development in areas like quantum technologies, space sciences, and national security.

UNM has been awarded numerous federal contracts to provide specialized research and development services. Recent contract awards have supported the development of high-precision optical sensors and levitated optomechanical systems for the Department of Defense. The university has also conducted research on photon processes and plasma dynamics for the Air Force, as well as materials science research for nuclear applications under contracts with the National Nuclear Security Administration. Additionally, UNM provides educational services through contracts with the Bureau of Indian Education to supply adjunct instructors for the Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute. A notable example of UNM's contract work is a $25,364.50 Time and Materials purchase order awarded by the Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation Headquarters Division for expert witness services. These contract awards typically do not involve set-aside designations, reflecting UNM's ability to compete in open market federal procurements.

Federal grants comprise a major portion of UNM's sponsored research portfolio, supporting work across scientific and engineering disciplines. The National Science Foundation has funded UNM's research on topics ranging from quantum computing and exoplanet detection to exploring novel two-dimensional materials and studying insect-induced plant galls. The National Institutes of Health supports UNM's biomedical research on areas such as alcohol use disorder treatment and Alzheimer's disease in indigenous populations. NASA grants fund UNM's space science research, including work on radiation detection materials and exoplanet surveys. The Department of Energy supports UNM's research on topics like nuclear materials and fusion energy sciences. UNM often collaborates with other universities, national laboratories, and industry partners on these grant-funded research initiatives. For example, UNM has partnered with institutions like Florida State University on hippocampal place cell activity analysis and Georgia State University Research Foundation Inc. on depression treatment studies.

UNM holds two significant federal contract Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDVs). The first is a $2,844,691.43 single-award IDV from the Department of Veterans Affairs for radiology interpretation and resident training services, with performance through June 2024. Under this vehicle, UNM has received multiple delivery orders to provide ongoing radiology services and training to support veterans' healthcare in New Mexico. The second IDV, awarded by the Bureau of Indian Affairs with a ceiling of $549,000 and performance through August 2025, is for autopsy and associated services in support of criminal investigations. This contract enables the Bureau to issue fixed-price delivery orders for forensic pathology services to assist with investigations impacting Native American communities. Additionally, UNM holds a $15 million single-award IDV with the Bureau of Indian Education to provide adjunct instructor services for the Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute. This 5-year contract enables the Bureau to task UNM with supplying qualified part-time adjunct professors across various degree programs as needed to support SIPI's educational accreditation requirements.
