About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded a $35.468 million definitive contract to University of Hawaii for rapid resilient reefs for coastal defense on June 3, 2022, under cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing. The contract develops self-healing hybrid biological and engineered reef structures to mitigate coastal flooding, erosion, and storm damage, with performance extending through June 2, 2027.
The originating Reefense program solicitation, posted January 4, 2021, sought proposals addressing substrate design and structure, ecosystem engineering, and adaptive biology of corals and oysters to achieve 90 percent wave attenuation. The program spans three phases over 150 months, with Phase 1 including wave tank testing of structural designs to demonstrate 70 percent wave attenuation by month 18. Place of performance is Honolulu, Hawaii.
University of Hawaii, a Navy-designated University Affiliated Research Center, anchors its federal footprint in maritime research and oceanographic engineering, with Naval Sea Systems Command representing the largest customer concentration. Subcontractors include University of California, San Diego; Florida Atlantic University; Makai Ocean Engineering Inc., a Hawaii-based small business specializing in subsea infrastructure and advanced ocean engineering; and Oregon State University. These institutions contribute specialized capabilities in marine engineering, environmental sciences, and coastal infrastructure design spanning coastal resilience, oceanographic modeling, and hybrid reef structure development.
