Quantum-Enhanced Modeling & Simulation (M&S) Development

The contract seeks to develop advanced methodologies and proofs of concept that integrate quantum computing capabilities with existing classical modeling and simulation workflows through the use of hybrid algorithms. The goal is to enhance the performance, accuracy, and scalability of M&S systems by leveraging quantum advancements while maintaining compatibility with established computational frameworks. This effort is focused on creating practical, implementable approaches that bridge the gap between cutting-edge quantum technologies and real-world defense and industrial simulation needs. The opportunity is structured as a subcontract under the NAICS code 541715 for scientific research and development, sponsored by the Bureau of Industry and Security within the Department of Commerce. Proposals must be submitted by September 9, 2026, and the work is expected to be performed at a designated location identified by the postal code 53470. While no set-aside preferences or point of contact details are provided, the emphasis is on innovation in hybrid computing for critical M&S applications, positioning the contractor as a key contributor to next-generation computational capabilities in strategic national domains.
