About the company
Friedman Research Corp, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Austin, Texas, operates as a prime contractor delivering applied research and development services to federal agencies in transportation safety, mechanical engineering, and hazardous-materials handling, competing exclusively under small-business set-asides or full-and-open solicitations. The company is a for-profit Subchapter S corporation structured as a corporate entity.
Friedman Research's capability portfolio centers on mechanical sensor development, finite element analysis, virtual testing, and safety engineering for transportation systems. Recent representative work includes a $712,234 Phase II Small Business Innovation Research contract awarded by the Department of Transportation's Office of the Secretary on September 23, 2026, for rail car coupling monitoring systems designed to detect high-energy coupling events — a definitive contract running through September 2027. The vendor completed a Phase I SBIR for the same topic, valued at $188,104 and awarded August 26, 2024, also under DOT. Prior work spans a $323,859 firm fixed-price contract with the Federal Railroad Administration (completed July 2023) for thermal protection testing and pressure-relief-valve analysis on cryogenic tank cars, and a $206,428 Department of Energy Office of Science project grant (awarded July 22, 2024) for risk analysis and high-fidelity modeling of spent nuclear fuel derailment events, running through May 2025. The vendor has also delivered smaller research awards to the Department of the Army (TACOM Life Cycle Management Command) and the Department of the Navy (Naval Air Systems Command).
Customer concentration is diffuse across a small federal footprint. The Department of Transportation (both the Office of the Secretary and the Federal Railroad Administration) accounts for three awards and $1.2 million in combined potential value; the Department of the Army has placed two awards valued at $336 thousand. The vendor serves six distinct federal agencies with eight total prime awards and no subcontract work. Activity is episodic — two awards in 2020 and 2024, one each in 2021 and 2022, and one in 2026 — with combined potential value of $1.9 million. One award ($712 thousand) faces recompete completion within twenty-four months. The vendor operates entirely as a prime contractor under small-business set-asides and holds no seats on government-wide vehicles or IDIQs.
