Battelle to continue CPAC support
Battelle has received a five-year, $50 million task order to continue supporting the US Marine Corps (USMC) Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPAC) programme, the company announced on 28 May.
The CPAC programme helps maintain combat readiness by assessing, repairing, protecting and preserving thousands of tactical vehicles and ground support equipment.
Battelle serves as an integrator for many aspects of the programme, providing programmatic support and subject matter expertise on variety of technical issues.
The team has assessed new coatings and corrosion prevention compounds that were under consideration, reviewed repair processes, created systems to more effectively preserve equipment, and identified where future investments could be made to enhance the CPAC mission.
