About this award

The Pennsylvania State University received a $1.5M delivery order from Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) for the THUNDERSTORM 24-25 Technology Discovery Events, a cost-plus-fixed-fee contract with an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2025. The work will be performed at Penn State's University Park campus in Pennsylvania. This delivery order award carries no set-aside designation, indicating that Penn State was selected based on demonstrated technical merit and capability. NAVSEA, a major command within the Department of the Navy responsible for ships, submarines, and combat systems, funds this requirement as part of broader defense research and development initiatives supporting naval innovation.

Penn State brings substantial expertise to this engagement as a premier federal research institution with over $250M in recent defense contracting activity. The university maintains an extensive portfolio with NAVSEA, the Office of Naval Research, and other Department of Defense entities, executing numerous cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery orders supporting advanced research in areas including submarine technology, materials science, and naval systems integration. This THUNDERSTORM delivery order aligns with Penn State's established role as a trusted long-term partner for defense agencies requiring sophisticated technical expertise and research support services. The cost-plus-fixed-fee structure is typical of Penn State's research-intensive contracting activities and reflects the exploratory, technology-focused nature of discovery events within the naval research community.
