About this award
Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) received a $935,475.44 cost-no-fee definitive contract from the Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity (HESCA), a subordinate command of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, under Project WP18-1176, with an ultimate completion date of June 4, 2023. The contract was awarded on June 4, 2018 and did not utilize a set-aside designation. Work will be performed in Worcester, Massachusetts. WPI, a private research university and established federal research performer, subcontracted portions of this effort to Energy Research Company (ERCo), which commenced work on November 30, 2018.
Under the subcontract, ERCo provided research and development services focused on laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) system development and validation. The scope involved coordination with WPI and Army program managers to assess customer requirements, identify suitable materials for proof-of-concept testing, procure training and validation samples, and conduct testing on samples with undisclosed metal and alloy compositions to validate the technical approach. This engagement leveraged ERCo's established expertise in LIBS instrument development and industrial materials characterization, capabilities developed through previous Department of Energy grants totaling nearly $3 million.
