About this award
Bluehalo, LLC received a $5.98M cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order from the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) for the Physics-Based and In-Situ Composite Analysis and Simulation Solutions (PICASSO) program, with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2027. This delivery order, awarded on February 10, 2021, will be performed in Kettering, Ohio, and does not utilize a small business set-aside. The work falls under AFRL's broader materials science and aerospace research portfolio, focusing on advanced characterization and modeling of composite materials—a critical capability for developing next-generation defense systems and aerospace applications.
Bluehalo has engaged three subcontractors to support the PICASSO effort: Georgia Tech Research Corporation (awarded August 2024) to conduct interfacial analysis of carbon nanocomposites and investigate the mechanics of carbon fiber-polymer systems through nanoscale characterization and mechanical testing; the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (awarded July 2024) to develop Kevlar-like polymers from chiral atropisomer molecules with tailored performance characteristics; and ASC Process Systems, Inc. (awarded November 2021) for material procurement and equipment support. These subcontractors bring specialized expertise in materials characterization, polymer synthesis, and industrial equipment—aligning with AFRL's strategic focus on advancing composite materials science and manufacturing capabilities.
