About this award
TDA Research, Inc., a small business specializing in advanced research and environmental technologies based in Golden, Colorado, was awarded a $989,023.75 cost-plus-fixed-fee contract by the Humphreys Engineer Center Support Activity (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) under the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP). The contract, designated WP22-7456 and awarded on August 12, 2022, called for the demonstration and validation of PFAS-free fire suppression foam—an innovative alternative to traditional aqueous film-forming foams that contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), which pose significant environmental and health risks. This effort aligned with the Department of Defense's broader sustainability and environmental protection objectives, addressing the critical need to transition away from legacy firefighting materials that contaminate groundwater and soil. The work was performed in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, with an ultimate completion date of October 23, 2024.
The contract was subsequently terminated for convenience of the government, indicating a decision to end the effort prior to completion. As a no-set-aside contract, TDA Research competed on an unrestricted basis against other qualified bidders responding to the ESTCP's Broad Agency Announcement issued in January 2021, which sought approximately $10 million in funding across multiple technology demonstration awards. TDA Research's selection reflected its established expertise in environmental technologies and materials science, areas central to the company's federal portfolio through prior SBIR and STTR programs. The termination suggests either successful completion of key demonstration objectives, a shift in program priorities, or budgetary adjustments within the Army Corps of Engineers' environmental security initiatives.
