NAICS: 333998
Scope: Federal

This is a notice of intent to sole source two ReBeL RBTX-IGUS-0243 robots, manufactured by igus, Inc.

This is a procurement of two robotic platforms to support two funded research projects focused on human-robot interaction for the Robotics Laboratory in NIOSH, Morgantown, WV.

Two funded NORA projects “Improving safety of human-robot interaction” and “Investigation on safety and trust when working alongside industrial mobile robots” require two mobile robot arms to conduct the human subject study.

The human subject will interact with these mobile robot platforms and evaluate the trust level as well as the contact avoidance interaction.

The Robotics Laboratory already has Freight Robots with similar specifications, which have passed the software update periods.

Purchasing additional mobile robots is necessary to fulfill the experiment requirement.

These robots are essential tools required to conduct controlled experimental studies that evaluate operator behavior, safety, and performance when interacting with robotic systems.

The requested platforms will be used exclusively within the Isolated Secure Local Environment (ISLE) to simulate real-world operational scenarios and to generate scientific data necessary to meet project objectives.

To comply with CDC/NIOSH IT security policies, the systems will operate within a closed network environment and will not be connected to the CDC enterprise network or the internet at any time during operation.

All experimental activities will be conducted locally, ensuring data security and system isolation.

These robotic platforms are necessary to fulfill the technical requirements of the funded studies and to enable rigorous evaluation of human-robot interaction in a safe and controlled setting.

This robot enables researchers to perform path plann...

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
