About this award

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, on behalf of the Defense's Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP), awarded Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) a $828,379 definitive contract on February 1, 2022 to develop a chromate-free zinc-nickel passivation treatment under project WP21-1131. The contract, structured as a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2027, will be performed at SwRI's San Antonio, Texas facility. This award originated from SERDP's fiscal year 2021 environmental research and development solicitation, which sought innovations across environmental restoration, munitions response, resource conservation, and weapons systems categories with approximately $12 million available for multiple awards. No small business set-aside was applied to this award, allowing full and open competition among qualified contractors.

SwRI, a nonprofit research and development organization with over 2,700 employees, is well-positioned to execute this passivation treatment development effort given its extensive technical capabilities in environmental compliance, materials science, and aerospace defense applications. The organization maintains significant federal contract vehicles and indefinite delivery contracts across defense and civilian agencies, including a $250 million Air Force contract for aircraft structural life extension and a $33 million Environmental Protection Agency contract for testing and analytical services. The chromate-free passivation treatment project addresses critical defense material protection needs while eliminating hazardous chromate compounds, supporting both environmental compliance and weapons systems durability objectives central to SERDP's mission.
