About this award

The Pennsylvania State University was awarded a $500K delivery order by the Naval Sea Systems Command to conduct a cold spray system comparison study. The contract, effective August 20, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of August 19, 2028, is structured as a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement and carries no set-aside designation. The work will be performed at Penn State's University Park campus in Pennsylvania. This delivery order represents Penn State's continued engagement with Naval Sea Systems Command on advanced materials and defense technology research, areas where the university has established significant expertise through its portfolio of federal contracts and grants.

Cold spray technology is an emerging materials processing technique with applications in coating, repair, and additive manufacturing of metallic and composite components. The comparative analysis Penn State will conduct likely evaluates different cold spray systems or methodologies for potential naval applications, such as shipboard maintenance, component restoration, or manufacturing advancement. As a major public research institution with deep capabilities in materials science and engineering, Penn State is well-positioned to provide the technical assessment and comparative analysis required for Naval Sea Systems Command to evaluate cold spray system viability for naval operations and maintenance applications.
