Central to our mission is a strong commitment to small business, and we especially invite participation by small, disadvantaged, women-owned, HUBZone, veteran-owned, and disabled veteran-owned businesses. Also important to the laboratory are partnerships with suppliers that result in creative collaboration.
Subcontracting
We can partner with your small, technology-based business to support the laboratory in the conduct of research and analysis and to improve the commercialization and deployment of clean energy technologies.
Purchasing Equipment and Services
We purchase lab equipment supplies; office furnishings and supplies; and technical consulting, temporary staffing, and construction services.
