About this award
The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center awarded a Small Business Technology Transfer Phase II contract to Karagozian & Case, Inc., a science and engineering consulting firm based in Glendale, California, to develop a modeling and design tool for bio-based construction products. This $1.15M firm fixed-price contract (STTR Phase II Topic A21C-T020) was awarded on August 26, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2026, and includes a no-cost time extension. The contract is set aside for total small business and represents the second phase of research development, building upon preliminary Phase I findings to advance the practical application of bio-based materials in construction.
Karagozian & Case brings substantial relevant experience to this effort, having previously received federal grants from the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service focused on innovative wood construction technologies, including cross-laminated timber panel development and progressive collapse guidance for mass timber systems. The company's technical expertise in advanced modeling, simulation, structural engineering, and protective design—demonstrated through numerous Department of Defense contracts—positions it well to develop comprehensive design tools that integrate material science with engineering analysis. This work aligns with broader federal priorities around sustainable construction materials and advancing wood utilization in infrastructure projects while maintaining structural performance standards.
