About this award

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) awarded a $24.4K firm fixed-price delivery order to Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) on September 28, 2023, for compliance and evaluation testing of motorcycle helmets to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 218. The work will be performed in San Antonio, Texas, with an ultimate completion date of September 27, 2025. This delivery order supports NHTSA's Standards Enforcement Program for FMVSS No. 218, which establishes safety requirements for motorcycle helmets sold in the United States. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, reflecting full and open competition.

SwRI, a nonprofit research and development organization headquartered in San Antonio, is well-positioned to execute this testing mission given its extensive experience in transportation safety and standards compliance work. The institute maintains significant federal contract vehicles supporting regulatory testing and evaluation across multiple agencies, including a $33M Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Water for testing and analytical services supporting motor vehicle regulation. SwRI's broad technical capabilities in engineering, scientific research, and specialized testing services align with NHTSA's need for rigorous helmet safety evaluation and compliance verification under established federal motor vehicle safety standards.
