About this award

The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) awarded Nuclear Fuel Services Inc. a $3.33 million firm fixed-price contract on August 26, 2024, for a Domestic Uranium Enrichment Centrifuge Pilot Plant Deployment Study. The contract, which extends through November 30, 2025, will be performed at the contractor's facility in Erwin, Tennessee. This study is designed to evaluate technical and economic feasibility options for establishing a domestic uranium enrichment pilot plant, assess critical technology needs, and determine the optimal path forward for pilot plant development. The work directly supports NNSA's strategic objective of strengthening domestic uranium enrichment capabilities, a critical component of the nation's nuclear security infrastructure.

Nuclear Fuel Services Inc., a subsidiary of BWX Technologies Inc., was selected through competitive procurement without small business set-aside designation, reflecting the specialized nature of this national security work. The company's established expertise in uranium enrichment, conversion, and purification technologies, combined with its track record of significant NNSA contract awards including a $428.6 million enriched uranium conversion services contract, positioned it as the appropriate contractor for this complex technical study. No incumbent contractor was identified for these services, and the award represents a continuation of the NNSA's investment in domestic nuclear fuel capabilities.
