Seeking organization to provide subject matter expertise and implementation support on ongoing and future international nuclear energy projects under the Foundational Infrastructure for Responsible Use of Small Modular Reactor Technology (FIRST) Program

CRDF Global is seeking organizations to provide subject matter expertise and implementation support across a number of topic areas for ongoing and future projects under the Foundational Infrastructure for Responsible Use of Small Modular Reactor Technology (FIRST) program as well as other programs funded by the U.S. Department of State. Under these programs, CRDF Global engages partner countries worldwide seeking to build or expand their nuclear energy programs to meet energy needs consistent with the highest nuclear security, safety, and nonproliferation standards. Eligible organizations include but are not limited to colleges and universities, research institutions, private consulting firms, professional and technical associations, and non-profit organizations with a focus on one or more of the technical areas referenced below.

Subcontracted organizations (Contractors) will work with CRDF Global to lend subject matter expertise, provide access to academic/technical courses and/or provide access to facilities, and/or assist partner academic and technical institutions to enhance their instructional programs. This support will enable the successful delivery of program engagements that will enable partner countries to safely and responsibly develop or advance civil nuclear energy programs leveraging small modular reactor (SMR) or other advanced reactor technologies. Contractors will work under the close operational supervision of CRDF Global and the U.S. Department of State to provide varied types of support, across one or more technical areas, during program engagements.
