Advanced Technology International to manage Information Warfare Research Project (IWRP) 3 Consortium OTA
Advanced Technology International (ATI) has been awarded the third iteration of the Information Warfare Research Project (IWRP) Consortium Other Transaction Agreement (OTA), known as “IWRP 3,” by the Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic. The IWRP 3 ordering period will run from Oct. 1, 2024 through Sept. 30, 2034 and will carry an “undefined ceiling” for executing prototype projects within the scope of specific technology focus areas.
“We are honored to be selected to continue supporting the Navy and our consortium members in this next iteration of IWRP,” said ATI President and Chief Operating Officer Mica Dolan. “We are excited to build on the tremendous success of IWRP 1 and IWRP 2, and we look forward to IWRP 3 providing new and innovative processes and solutions in support of the warfighter.”
The undefined ceiling and ten-year ordering period are two major distinctions between IWRP 3 and previous iterations that comprised shorter ordering periods and initial ceiling limits of $100 million under IWRP 1 and $500 million under IWRP 2.
IWRP 3 also will see the expansion of technology focus areas to include quantum, optical communications, and electromagnetic spectrum operations.
“The IWRP concept, which keenly focuses on rapid prototyping, has proven to be an effective acquisition tool for quickly advancing technical solutions to the fleet,” said Peter C. Reddy, NIWC Atlantic executive director. “With this new OTA, we look forward to seeing how IWRP 3 will continue supporting mission readiness by rapidly meeting warfighter capability needs and continuing to engage a broad range of companies and organizations for potential solutions.”
