13--Modification to a previously awarded contract for the Man Transportable Robotic System (MTRS)

NAVSEA Indian Head requires additional units of the Man Transportable Robotic System (MTRS) and plans to address this need through a contract modification to an existing agreement with iRobot Corporation. The original contract, numbered N00174-03-D-0003, was previously awarded to iRobot Corporation, located in Burlington, Massachusetts. The modification will be negotiated exclusively with this company, reflecting a sole-source procurement approach. This effort supports the Department of Defense via the NSWC Indian Head Division, aiming to enhance capabilities with these robotic systems. The contract action was publicly posted as a presolicitation in April 2007, under the title indicating a modification for the MTRS. While detailed information on the place of performance and NAICS code is not provided, all administrative and organizational management is handled through the Indian Head office in Maryland. Any inquiries regarding the contract should be directed to Jessica Scalfaro via the provided Navy email address. This focused modification demonstrates a continued relationship with iRobot Corporation to fulfill specific robotic system requirements for military applications.
