SRI International has won a $7.2 million  contract from the U.S. Army to support a Defense Advanced Research Project Agency program that aims to develop modeling technology for analysts to examine queries related to national and global security.
The company will support DARPA’s World Modelers Program and is scheduled to finish work under the cost-plus-fixed-fee contract by Dec. 9, 2021, the Defense Department said Friday.
DoD noted the program seeks research proposals in the causal modeling, forecasting and analysis areas.
The Army Contracting Command received seven bids for the contract and the service branch obligated $1.4 million in fiscal 2017 research and development funds at the time of award.
