  • Available for Licensing: Composite Vessel-Shield Technology for Transportable Microreactor Systems

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Sep 1, 2026

    Here are the 4 essential bullet points based on the provided text: • A laminated sandwich composite designed for consolidated reactor vessel and radiation shielding functions into a single, weight-optimized structural system for mobile nuclear power applications. • The combined mass of the pressure vessel and radiation shield in conventional reactors is substantial, exceeding transport capacity and limiting configuration options. • The proposed composite's integration addresses this logistics problem by consolidating these two subsystems into a single integrated structure using reactor-grade materials fabricated with advanced manufacturing methods.

  • TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: Advanced Metal Hydride Microreactor Platform

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Sep 14, 2026

    • LANL seeks licensing partners to support product development, validation, and market deployment of an integrated microreactor technology platform. • The innovative approach addresses core materials and engineering barrier limitations preventing rapid compact nuclear micro reactor deployment. • Proven nuclear materials architecture enables high-performance components production by reducing fuel requirements by up to 50% and eliminating complex environmental control systems. • LANL requires a licensing partner to supply solid moderator materials and develop methods for their efficient conversion into usable components.

  • TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: PBI High-Temperature Hollow Fiber Membranes

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Dec 5, 2026

    • No specific procurement opportunity is listed in the provided text. • The description does not specify any eligibility or set-aside program for small businesses or other types of competition constraints. • There are no key technical requirements or important geographic, volume, or other similar constraints outlined. • Without a clear deadline or time-sensitive element presented in the text, there is no Deadline or urgency bullet to include.

  • TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: SurfGraphPro

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Dec 5, 2026

    • Los Alamos National Laboratory seeks an AI-driven tool called SurfGraphPro to transform complex 3D protein structures into simplified, analysis-friendly formats. • The solicitation is set within a small business program due to the innovative nature of molecular visualization and data processing expertise required. • SurfGraphPro must maintain both the geometric integrity and biochemical nuances of protein surfaces while reducing computational complexity for large-scale applications.

  • TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: Bacterial Lipid Nanodiscs Platform

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Dec 16, 2026

    • Los Alamos National Laboratory seeks development assistance for its Bacterial Lipid Nanodiscs Platform to study bacterial membranes. • The opportunity is unrestricted and open to all small businesses under NAICS code 541920 (Life Sciences Research Services). • The scope of work includes the creation, processing, and documentation of biological samples using the platform for vaccine design and antimicrobial research.

  • TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: Heat Pipe Reactor Fire Mitigation and Suppression System

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Dec 20, 2026

    • Los Alamos National Laboratory seeks development of advanced fire mitigation system for heat pipes in nuclear reactors. • The acquisition is not set aside for any specific small business program; it is an unrestricted full competition. • Technology focuses on transforming passive thermal conduits into active, sensor-driven fire suppression systems for remote and space-constrained applications.

  • Accelerator-Driven Sub-Critical Molten-Salt Assembly (ADS+MSA Facility)

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Dec 23, 2026

    • The U.S. Department of Energy seeks an accelerator-driven, sub-critical molten-salt nuclear system for centralized tritium production. • Not set aside specifically for small businesses under NAICS 541930 (Nuclear Reactor Fuel and Product Manufacturing). • Key technical requirement is the use of a high-power particle accelerator coupled with a liquid molten-salt system to produce kilogram-scale quantities of tritium.

  • Bolstering Underutilized Industry by Leveraging Technology Transfer (BUILTT) for DOE

    ENERGY, DEPARTMENT OFDue Apr 1, 2027

    • Small and medium-sized businesses are invited to participate in a pilot initiative to transfer technology from DOE/NNSA Labs, Plants, and Sites. • Eligibility is limited to small businesses as part of the BUILTT program under the DOE. • The program offers a Cost Reduction License (CRL) for manufacturing and selling specified technologies exclusively to DOE or other government agencies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What professional services contracts does the federal government award (NAICS 54)?

NAICS sector 54 (Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services) is one of the largest federal contracting sectors, covering IT consulting, engineering, R&D, management consulting, architecture, legal services, and accounting. Major buyers include DoD, DHS, VA, and civilian agencies across all categories.

How do I find federal contracting opportunities?

Federal contracting opportunities are posted on SAM.gov (System for Award Management). You can search by keyword, NAICS code, set-aside type, agency, and response deadline. FedOps aggregates and enriches SAM.gov data daily so you can filter and track opportunities in one place.

What is a set-aside in federal contracting?

A set-aside is a procurement reserved for a specific category of small business. Common set-asides include SDVOSB (Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned), 8(a), WOSB (Women-Owned), HUBZone, and Small Business. Only businesses that meet the eligibility requirements can bid on a set-aside contract.

How do I register to bid on federal contracts?

You must register your business in SAM.gov (sam.gov), which is free. You'll need a DUNS/UEI number, NAICS codes for your business, bank account information for electronic funds transfer, and applicable certifications (8(a), SDVOSB, WOSB, etc.) if bidding on set-asides. Registration is renewed annually.
