Procurement of a Humanoid RobotThe Department of Commerce’s National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is soliciting a single commercially available humanoid robot for use in research and validation of robotic test methods at its Gaithersburg, Maryland facility. The robot must meet stringent technical specifications including a minimum height of 1.5 meters, at least five degrees of freedom per leg and six per arm, a one-hour minimum battery life, and integrated vision, lidar, IMU, and force-torque sensors at the wrists and ankles. It must be delivered new with all required accessories, accompanied by a licensed software/API enabling custom scripting, sensor calibration, and external system integration, and include installation, training, and warranty support. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price acquisition with delivery due six months after award under F.O.B. Destination terms, meaning the contractor bears all risk and cost of transport until physical receipt at NIST’s Shipping and Receiving facility. Offerors must demonstrate technical capability that exceeds all minimum requirements—failure to meet any specification results in automatic disqualification—and provide up to three relevant past performance examples, with preference given to prime contractor experience. Price is evaluated only after technical and performance qualifications are confirmed and is the least important factor in award, which will be determined through a best-value trade-off approach, not lowest price technically acceptable. The solicitation is exclusively set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 334516 with a size standard of 1,000 employees, and all offerors must provide a Unique Entity Identifier and CAGE code. Proposals must be submitted electronically via email to robert.cowins@nist.gov by the deadline of June 15, 2026, and must include separate volumes for technical, pricing, and compliance information, with past performance narratives limited to one single-sided page each. Compliance with numerous FAR clauses is mandatory, including those relating to business ethics, whistleblower rights, trafficking in persons, child labor, equal opportunity, Buy American requirements, and the prohibition of internal confidentiality agreements that restrict reporting to the government. Deviations from standard FAR language effective January 2026 are incorporated into several clauses, including those governing contractor responsibility, System for Award Management, and protest procedures. Contractors must also manage strict site access limitations, requiring advance registration of personnel and vehicles, NIST-issued badges, and daily verification of campus status. Invoicing must be processed through the U.S. Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform, with payment contingent upon full system acceptance and successful validation testing conducted
