About this award
The Pennsylvania State University was awarded a $600,000 cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order on July 12, 2022, to conduct research on additive manufacturing of texture-engineered ceramics through a collaborative effort with the Army Research Laboratory. The work will be performed at Penn State's University Park campus in Pennsylvania and is scheduled for completion by September 30, 2026. This contract was awarded without a set-aside designation, indicating Penn State competed on technical merit. The funding originates from the Naval Sea Systems Command, which is part of the Department of Defense, reflecting the Navy's interest in advanced materials research with potential applications to naval systems and technologies.
As a major research institution with an extensive portfolio of defense contracts, Penn State brings significant expertise in materials science and advanced manufacturing to this initiative. The university's research activities under this effort support the Navy's broader technology development objectives through fundamental and applied research in ceramic materials. This delivery order represents part of Penn State's ongoing collaboration with Naval Sea Systems Command and other defense agencies, where the university routinely delivers sophisticated technical research services across multiple defense-related domains. The cost-plus-fixed-fee structure enables flexibility in managing research activities while maintaining cost oversight throughout the performance period.
