Littleton, Massachusetts-based Infoscitex has been awarded a $48,443,038 cost-plus-fixed-fee contract for research and development of the Mission Effects Analysis of Multi-Domain Sensing program by the Department of Defense (DoD).

According to the DoD, the primary objectives of the program are to: (1) produce and refine sensing exploitation models in support of engagement and mission level analysis; (2) perform in-depth assessment and analysis of new and innovative exploitation technologies (3) assemble a comprehensive library of high-utility benchmark sensing exploitation algorithms and software; (4) develop and deploy appropriate processes and tools that promote continuous characterization, valuation, and improvement in the quality, accessibility, and suitability of core data assets; (5) deploy refinements of the foundation of appropriate in-house and third-party infrastructure, platform, and software solutions to continuously evolve the ecosystem of collaboration and computational tools; (6) provide data and collaboration support to external customers; and (7) provide quantitative performance analysis of external customer sensor exploitation capabilities.

Work will be performed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, and is expected to be completed by Aug. 25, 2023. Air Force Research Laboratory, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, is the contracting activity (FA8650-18-C-1669).
