NSRP | National Shipbuilding Research Program

The Executive Control Board of the National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) selected a new round of R&D projects for award, as part of the Program's continuing mission to employ a unique collaborative framework to research, develop, mature, and implement industry relevant shipbuilding and sustainment technologies and processes, improving efficiency across the U.S. shipyard industrial base and meeting future demand. The four projects, valued at over $5.4M in government funding and industry cost share, were among those proposed in response to a Research Announcement issued on April 8, 2024.
