Autonomous Ground Vehicle Systems Integration

The contract pertains to the development and integration of autonomous navigation, perception, and decision-making systems for unmanned and semi-autonomous military ground vehicles, targeting advanced capabilities to operate in complex battlefield environments. The work involves creating software and hardware architectures capable of real-time environmental sensing, path planning, obstacle avoidance, and tactical decision-making without sustained human intervention, with a focus on reliability, scalability, and interoperability with existing military platforms. The systems must meet rigorous performance standards under adverse conditions, including contested electromagnetic environments and rough terrains, and are intended for deployment across a range of ground vehicle types used by the U.S. Army. This is a subcontract under the Department of Defense, specifically managed by the U.S. Army TACOM headquarters, with the primary place of performance located in Warren. The work falls under NAICS code 541330, indicating it is centered on engineering services, particularly those involving systems integration and advanced robotics development. The contract was posted on May 5, 2026, and while no set-aside designation or point of contact is provided, the nature of the work suggests high confidentiality and compliance with defense contracting requirements, including secure data handling, export control regulations, and potential requirements for personnel clearance. The effort aims to enhance the operational autonomy of future ground forces through cutting-edge AI and sensing technologies integrated into militarized platforms.
