About the company
Bwxt Advanced Technologies LLC, a subsidiary of Bwxt Nuclear Energy, Inc., operates as a prime contractor and subcontractor delivering advanced nuclear power systems, radiation-hardened semiconductor architectures, and nuclear technology R&D to the Department of Defense, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy, and the Department of the Navy. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations, specializing in Other Transaction Agreements and cost-sharing research contracts that fall outside traditional Federal Acquisition Regulation constraints.
Bwxt Advanced Technologies' award footprint centers on defense and energy R&D with extremely high dollar concentration. The Office of the Secretary of Defense anchors the portfolio at $696 million combined potential value across three awards — substantially larger than DARPA's $5.1 million (two awards) and the Office of Naval Research's $4 million (one award). The Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy appears in two awards with undisclosed individual values. All five named customer agencies represent the full scope of recent awards.
Recent prime work includes a $1.77 million DARPA Other Transaction Agreement awarded February 10, 2026, for development of high-performance alphavoltaic device architectures in 2-D chalcogenide materials designed for extreme radiation hardness and high specific power, with completion August 9, 2028. A $70,646 Department of Defense Other Transaction Agreement for advanced nuclear power for installations was awarded August 14, 2025, with completion August 13, 2027. The Office of Naval Research issued a $4 million definitive contract on December 16, 2024, under the ARPS Broad Agency Announcement for cost-shared research, completing December 15, 2026. Bwxt Advanced Technologies also holds a cooperative agreement from the Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy (award date March 8, 2022, ultimate completion December 31, 2028) for technology maturation of a small, transportable high-temperature gas-cooled reactor design — a multi-year effort to improve commercial viability through advancement toward technology and manufacturing readiness levels comparable to baseline designs.
The vendor operates as a subcontractor on parallel nuclear and space-power efforts. Under Lockheed Martin, Bwxt Advanced Technologies performs high-power professional engineering services on the Joint Emergent Technology Supplying On-Orbit Nuclear Power (JETSON) program (sub-award date December 18, 2023). Under The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, the vendor provided technical support for an Other Transaction prototype project (sub-award date July 20, 2026). Across prime and sub roles, Bwxt Advanced Technologies maintains a narrowly focused capability set centered on advanced reactor design, nuclear power for space and defense platforms, radiation-hardened power systems, and associated technology maturation and risk reduction.
Awards per year have remained sparse — one to two annually from 2022 through 2026 — reflecting the long development cycles and high dollar magnitudes characteristic of nuclear R&D. Four awards (combined potential value $701.8 million) face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore represent near-term recompete exposure. Service Contract Inventory data captures minimal activity: 0.8 FTEs in FY2024 as a named subcontractor on a single SCI record, indicating that Bwxt Advanced Technologies' federal footprint is dominated by R&D and prototype contracts rather than ongoing service delivery.
