U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is inviting defense companies and nonprofit research institutions to submit white papers as part of a competitive process to develop military technology through engineering and high-performance computing approaches.
USACE said Wednesday its Engineer Research and Development Center seeks contractors for prototyping projects in the areas of HPC, data analytics, cybersecurity, systems engineering and computational material testing.
The center is looking to award other transaction agreements to build prototypes for the Engineered Resilient Systems program, according to a notice posted on SAM.
Specific topics of interest under the opportunity include HPC applications that support advanced manufacturing and the development of surrogate models.
ERDC seeks to use HPC technology in the development of concepts, methods and tools to increase warfighting system resilience.
The agency will accept white papers for the OTA opportunity throughout the year.
