About the company

Coastal Carolina University operates exclusively as a sub-recipient on federal contracts and grants, with no prime awards in recent years. The institution is a state-controlled, not-for-profit educational entity headquartered in Conway, South Carolina, and has received four federal sub-awards totaling $1.8 million obligated across two distinct customer agencies since 2021.

Coastal Carolina's federal footprint centers on coastal and ocean science work. As a sub-recipient under the Southeast Coastal Ocean Observing Regional Association, the university has performed three sub-grant awards tied to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration: water-level operations work (Aug 31, 2021), delivering actionable coastal and ocean information from high-quality science and observations for the Southeast (Sep 21, 2021), and implementation work under the Infrastructure Investments and Jobs Act (Nov 1, 2023). The university also holds a sub-contract award under Triad National Security, LLC dated June 24, 2025, performing research and development work related to the Los Alamos National Laboratory management and operation competition on behalf of the Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration.

Customer concentration is narrow and split between two federal agencies: the Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration accounts for three awards (all sub-grants under the regional observing association), and the Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration accounts for one sub-contract award. Activity is sparse — two awards in 2021, one in 2023, and one in 2025 — reflecting the university's limited position in the federal contracting ecosystem. Coastal Carolina does not sit on parent contract vehicles, does not serve as a prime contractor or prime grant recipient, and does not appear to maintain significant federal teaming relationships beyond its role as a sub-recipient under the regional observing association and Triad National Security.
