Fagan Consulting LLC was awarded a $150,000 Small Business Innovation Research Phase I contract by the U.S. Department of Transportation on July 20, 2023, to develop a self-contained electrocoagulation device designed to achieve stormwater water quality goals under DOT Topic 23-FH1. The contract is set aside for total small business participation and carries a firm fixed price structure. Work is being performed in Prattville, Alabama, with an ultimate completion date of January 19, 2024. This award stems from the Department of Transportation's Fiscal Year 2023 SBIR program, which solicits innovative research from small businesses across multiple transportation-related challenges.
The SBIR Phase I program represents the initial exploration phase of the Small Business Innovation Research initiative, which supports small businesses in conducting high-risk, high-reward research and development activities with federal funding. The electrocoagulation device development aligns with the DOT's broader focus on transportation infrastructure sustainability, specifically addressing stormwater management and water quality—critical concerns for transportation facilities and related environmental compliance. The Phase I award provides Fagan Consulting with resources to validate the technical feasibility and commercial potential of the proposed solution before potential advancement to subsequent SBIR phases.
