Core Analysis Tasks (CATs) are separately funded work efforts above and beyond HDIAC products and services. The CAT program allows any DoD component to utilize the HDIAC as a contracting vehicle, allowing an organization to obtain specialized support for specific projects. CATs are very flexible, but are limited to a 12 month period of performance and a maximum budget of $1M per project. These projects, however, must be within the HDIAC’s technical domain (Alternative Energy, Biometrics, CBRN Defense, Cultural Studies, Critical Infrastructure Protection, Homeland Defense & Security, Medical, and Weapons of Mass Destruction).
