About this award
Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity awarded a $553,061 definitive contract to Colorado State University for a quantum chemical and machine learning approach to predict thermal PFAS destruction on April 15, 2022, under cost-no-fee pricing with an ultimate completion date of April 15, 2027.
The work supports the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) project ER21-1019 and builds on computational chemistry and predictive modeling research. Place of performance is Fort Collins, Colorado. Colorado State University's Sponsored Programs Division serves as the executing entity.
The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) collaborates as subcontractor on computational chemistry calculations and predictive model development, including preparation of an analyte list within four months of contract award in compliance with SERDP/ESTCP quality assurance and quality control guidelines, participation in computational chemistry calculations, development of predictive models, and supervision and analysis support for student and postdoctoral researchers. Subcontracting activities were incrementally funded beginning in January 2024, with subsequent funding actions recorded in October 2024 and April 2025.
The contract originated from a Department of Defense SERDP pre-solicitation posted October 24, 2019, for environmental research and development across Environmental Restoration, Munitions Response, Resource Conservation and Resiliency, and Weapons Systems and Platforms. The underlying solicitation anticipated multiple awards totaling approximately $12 million with evaluation focused on technical merit, personnel qualifications, and cost. NAICS code 541715 (environmental research and experimental development services) applies.
