About this award
The Missile Defense Agency awarded a $9.3M cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to Advanced Silicon Carbide Materials LLC, a woman-owned, SBA-certified HUBZone small business based in Lihue, Hawaii, to develop robust designs and processes for advanced silicon carbide materials applicable to adaptive optics systems. The contract was awarded on May 27, 2021, with performance completion targeted for June 30, 2024, and originated from a Missile Defense Agency Broad Agency Announcement posted in April 2019 that solicited research proposals across advanced technology areas including materials, sensors, and directed energy applications. The work supports applied research efforts aligned with NAICS code 541712 (research and development in physical and engineering sciences) and does not involve directed development of hardware or systems.
This contract reflects the Missile Defense Agency's ongoing investment in advanced optical and materials technologies that underpin missile defense system capabilities. Advanced Silicon Carbide Materials LLC brings specialized expertise in ceramic technologies and high-temperature materials, with a demonstrated track record on defense-focused research and development projects. The company's prior work includes a $2.48M Small Business Innovation Research Phase II contract for transparent silicon carbide windows for the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system, demonstrating relevant technical capability in optical materials for defense applications. No set-aside designation was applied to this competitive award.
