This document is an Attachment C Proposal Summary Slide Template related to the Structures Uniquely Resolved to Guarantee Endurance (SURGE) federal grant opportunity, solicitation number HR001124S0018.

The SURGE program, funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), is seeking innovative proposals to develop methods that can predict the useful life of manufactured parts directly from data collected during the additive manufacturing (AM) process. The proposed research must investigate approaches that enable revolutionary advances in distributed AM capability, rather than just evolutionary improvements. Eligible applicant types include other, non-specified entities. Funding instruments may include cooperative agreements and procurement contracts. The SURGE program is assigned to the Research and Technology Development federal grant program (CFDA 12.910), which supports basic, applied, and advanced research at educational institutions, nonprofits, and commercial firms with potential military or dual-use applications.
