AI Contract Overview
The contract involves the sole-source negotiation and award to Valvoline, Inc., a division of Ashland, Inc., for a modification to an existing agreement focused on research and development aimed at enhancing petroleum, lubricants, and oils (POL) through the incorporation of nanoparticles. This effort builds on previous work under contract W56HZV-07-C-0211 to identify, characterize, and synthesize nanoparticles specifically for military engine oils, with potential applications extending to other POL products. A significant component of the research includes the development of stable carbon nanotube dispersions in liquids to create a product viable for bulk manufacturing. The estimated contract value for this initiative is $851,000, with negotiations conducted under the authority of FAR 6-302.1. The work is managed by TACOM-Warren, a U.S. Army facility located at Detroit Arsenal, Michigan. The anticipated award date for the modification is June 30, 2007. The research is intended to continue advancing the scientific and technical knowledge necessary to improve the performance and durability of military lubricants through cutting-edge nanotechnology.
