What types of research and development projects does CERL prioritize?

CERL prioritizes projects related to sustainable infrastructure, advanced materials, energy security, and environmental compliance for military installations. Vendors should align their technical proposals with the Army's goals for facility modernization and climate resilience.

Do I need a facility clearance to work with CERL?

While many R&D contracts are unclassified, some projects involving military-specific infrastructure or sensitive environmental data may require a facility security clearance. Check individual solicitations for specific security requirements before bidding.

How can small businesses compete for CERL contracts?

CERL frequently utilizes Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs to engage with innovative firms. Vendors should monitor these programs to identify opportunities to develop and commercialize new engineering technologies for the Army.
