About this award

The National Center for Defense Manufacturing and Machining (NCDMM), a Pennsylvania-based non-profit advanced manufacturing research organization, was awarded a $1.82M Definitive Contract by the Defense Logistics Agency (Troop Support) on March 8, 2023, to conduct a Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) study for a domestic system to recover rare earth elements and metals from electronic waste. Performed at a facility in New Augusta, Indiana, this cost-plus-fixed-fee contract represents part of broader Department of Defense efforts to strengthen domestic industrial capacity for critical material recovery and reduce supply chain vulnerabilities. The contract was structured without a set-aside designation and carries an ultimate completion date of September 8, 2024.

This award reflects the Defense Department's strategic focus on developing domestic sources for rare earth elements and metals, materials essential to defense systems and increasingly subject to supply chain constraints. NCDMM's extensive portfolio of manufacturing research and development contracts, including a $246M Army RDECOM indefinite delivery vehicle and recent Air Force awards, positions the organization as a capable partner for technology development initiatives that strengthen the industrial base. The FEED study contract builds on NCDMM's demonstrated expertise in advanced manufacturing processes and engineering analysis, contributing to the Department's broader agenda of reducing dependence on foreign sources for critical defense materials and establishing viable domestic recycling and recovery infrastructure for electronic waste streams.
