About this award
This federal contract award, with ID 80NSSC22K0281, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees), a state agency and member of The Texas A&M University System. The $1,677,509.55 grant is for research related to improving low-frequency, high-sensitivity accelerometers, a technology that plays a key role in the GRACE mission, which has fundamentally improved the understanding of Earth's gravitational field and dynamics.
The contract does not utilize a set-aside designation, indicating Tees competed successfully in full and open competition. As a leading public research university system, Texas A&M has a strong track record of providing diverse services and innovative solutions to federal agencies through contract and grant awards. This contract leverages Tees' expertise in areas such as advanced materials, data analytics, and experimental engineering to address technology gaps identified through the GRACE mission. The agency's interest in improving low-frequency accelerometer technology suggests a focus on enhancing earth observation capabilities and understanding Earth system dynamics.
Description
