About this award
The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) awarded a $750,000 firm fixed-price contract to The University of Southern Mississippi (USM) on August 23, 2023, to quantify and understand the performance lifetime of legacy coal tar epoxy coatings and develop replacement technologies. The contract, which extends through September 1, 2027, will be performed at USM's facilities in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. This award originated from the ERDC's Broad Agency Announcement 22-007, a rolling solicitation that seeks research and development proposals across multiple engineering and technical domains including environmental remediation, construction research, and materials science. No set-aside designation was applied to this contract.
USM's Office of Research Support and Development brings substantial capabilities to this effort, drawing on the university's established track record in polymer science and materials development for federal defense agencies. The contract aligns with ERDC's mission to advance engineering solutions for the U.S. military and critical infrastructure, particularly addressing the technical challenges associated with aging protective coating systems used in military and industrial applications. The definitive contract structure with firm fixed pricing provides clear cost certainty for this multiyear research initiative focused on understanding coating degradation mechanisms and identifying advanced replacement materials.
