Southern Research awarded WEBS sub-contract
Southern Research has announced that it has been selected to join the BANC3 team to support the US Army Warrior Enabling Broad Sensor (WEBS) contract. The contract will see Southern Research provide support for mission research, development, and administration.
Prime contractor BANC3 was recently awarded a $1.78 billion contract by the US Army Research, Development and Engineering Command (RDECOM) Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Centre (CERDEC) Night Vision and Electronics Sensors Directorate (NVESD) to provide engineering support and technology assistance under the WEBS support contract.
Southern Research will support rapid response requests for numerous potential technologies and specific programmes, such as spiral developmental improvements, which have extremely specific requirements and require a high level of expertise.
The Southern Research Engineering Division conducts research and development in the areas of thermal and structural behaviours of advanced composite materials, advanced material processing techniques, electro-mechanical systems and integration, aerospace engineering, and computational sciences.
