About this award
The Air Force Research Laboratory awarded Arctos Technology Solutions, LLC a delivery order valued at $7.25M on March 24, 2017, for Low Observable Nondestructive Evaluation Visual Defect Inspection Technologies under the Research Initiatives in Material State Sensing (RIMSS) II program. The contract, structured as cost-plus-fixed-fee with no set-aside designation, extends through March 31, 2025, and is performed in Beavercreek, Ohio. The initiative focuses on developing advanced nondestructive evaluation and visual inspection capabilities to detect and characterize defects in aircraft structures, particularly engine exhaust ducts and low-observable coatings, leveraging robotic crawler technology integrated with sensor systems.
Arctos assembled a specialized subcontractor team to execute the technical requirements, including KBR Wyle Services, LLC for developing nondestructive evaluation technologies to detect defects in aircraft engine exhaust ducts; Modern Technology Solutions, Inc. for software and hardware development of a prototype visual inspection system for low-observable aircraft coatings; Ierus Technologies Inc. for conducting engineering trade studies and risk reduction analysis on probe designs; General Electric Company's Research Division for state-of-the-art robotic crawler technology with integrated sensors; and The Survice Engineering Company LLC for experimental methods development in laboratory characterization and in-place nondestructive evaluation of electromagnetic materials. This collaborative approach combined expertise in aerospace engineering, advanced materials characterization, and sensor technology development to advance the Air Force's inspection and quality assurance capabilities for critical aircraft components.
