The CDC Office of Acquisition Services is soliciting quotations for two igus ReBeL EduMove robotic platforms, part number RBTX-IGUS-0243, to support human-robot interaction research at the NIOSH Robotics Laboratory in Morgantown, West Virginia. These mobile robot arms are required for two funded NORA projects focused on safety, trust, and contact avoidance during human-robot interactions. To maintain strict IT security and compliance with CDC policies, the robots must support local path planning and task scheduling and be compatible with Robot Operating System 2 (ROS 2) to ensure data reproducibility and coordination without requiring remote vendor access or internet connectivity. This is a brand-name-or-equal competition where only the specified igus model will be accepted. Awards will be made based on the lowest price technically acceptable basis. Interested offerors must submit their quotations via email to the primary point of contact by the deadline of September 2, 2026.

Full Description

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 planning and task scheduling locally through direct communication. In contrast, many other products require vendor involvement for programming and rely on remote network connections for management and operation. This does not meet the need because the device will be deployed within the ISLE environment, which does not allow direct connection to the enterprise network. Additionally, allowing vendors to remotely access CDC devices would violate IT security policies. The robot must be compatible with Robot Operating System 2 (ROS 2) as its standardization and integration allow for reproducible human-robot interaction data. In a multi-robot-multi-user workspace, ROS 2 compatibility is necessary to enable communication and coordination among individual robots.


This is a brand-name-or-equal competition. Only the igus ReBeL EduMove (part number: RBTX-IGUS-0243) will be accepted. Offerors must provide the correct part number in order to be eligible for award. No other products will be accepted.


Quotations will be evaluated on a lowest price technically acceptable basis. 


Offerors shall provide a quotation for 2x igus ReBel EduMove robots.


Send quotations by email to ttu3@cdc.gov

Solicitation # 75D30126Q79062
Solicitation 75D30126Q79062 is a request for a firm-fixed-price contract from the CDC Office of Acquisition Services to secure permanent housing and lifetime care for approximately 130 to 132 non-human primates. The objective is to transfer these animals into a GFAS-accredited sanctuary that prohibits research, breeding, the buying or selling of animals, and direct public contact. The scope of work includes transportation, intake examinations, quarantine, and ten years of comprehensive veterinary care, nutrition, and housing in naturalistic environments that support behavioral health and social group formation. The acquisition is not set aside for small businesses and falls under NAICS code 813312. Award selection will be based on a trade-off approach where technical criteria are significantly more important than price. Technical evaluation includes a Go/No Go screening for GFAS accreditation, followed by an assessment of facility information, staffing, animal management and safety plans, and past performance. All technical criteria must be rated as at least Acceptable for an offeror to be eligible for award. Following five amendments to incorporate Q&A and refine the solicitation, the final response deadline is September 14, 2026, at 5:00 PM EDT. Submissions must be electronic, consisting of a technical volume and a price volume. The contractor will assume sole custody and ownership of the animals, ensuring compliance with federal animal welfare standards, including those set by the USDA, APHIS, and AAALAC.
