About this award
The Pennsylvania State University received a $320,000 delivery order from the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) for Foreign Comparative Testing (FCT) support related to the FAUN PSA-FTN airfield matting system. The contract, awarded on August 28, 2024, employs cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing and carries an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2025. This engagement supports the Army Research Laboratory/Penn State University FY2023-FY2028 requirement and will be performed at Penn State's main campus in University Park, Pennsylvania. No set-aside designation was used for this award.
The contract reflects Penn State's continued technical partnership with NAVSEA on defense-related research and development initiatives. Foreign Comparative Testing typically involves evaluation and analysis of foreign military systems or equipment to support U.S. defense acquisition and operational decisions. Penn State's extensive expertise in materials science, engineering, and advanced technical assessment positions it to deliver sophisticated analytical support for this airfield matting evaluation requirement. The cost-plus-fixed-fee structure, consistent with Penn State's typical federal contracting arrangements, provides flexibility for research activities while maintaining defined fee parameters across the performance period.
