This award is the result of a “One Step, Closed Broad Agency Announcement,” and there was only one proposal received, the DoD said. That’s a way for the government to request scientific or research proposals from private firms or colleges. Such announcements don’t always lead to contracts.
Fiscal 2019 funds in the amount of $2,018,628 will be obligated at the time of award, and the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright Patterson was the contracting activity.
