About this award
Paulsson, Inc. was awarded a $156,500 Small Business Innovation Research Phase I contract by the U.S. Department of Transportation to conduct research on geohazard identification and quantification for pipeline risk models. This firm fixed-price purchase order, which was designated as a total small business set-aside, supported the company's development of feasibility analyses and proof-of-concept research to enhance pipeline safety and performance monitoring. The contract was awarded on July 27, 2020, with an ultimate completion date of January 26, 2021, and work was performed at the company's facility in Lake Balboa, California. The award originated from the Department of Transportation's fiscal year 2020 SBIR solicitation, which sought innovative research proposals from small businesses across multiple transportation modal administrations.
Paulsson, Inc., an optical instrument development and energy services company specializing in fiber optic sensor design and deployment, leveraged this Phase I award as part of its broader focus on pipeline safety innovations. The company's expertise in fiber optic sensing technologies and geohazard monitoring aligned with the Department of Transportation's research priorities, and this Phase I award subsequently led to a Phase II SBIR award of $991,124 for continued research in the same technical area. The SBIR program's phased approach enabled Paulsson to advance its capabilities in pipeline risk assessment and monitoring, contributing to the transportation sector's enhanced safety and infrastructure performance objectives.
