Robotic Lift System Design and Integration

The contract calls for the design, engineering, and full integration of a robotic system capable of lifting, rotating, and precisely maneuvering portable shelter units, with an emphasis on ensuring structural integrity and seamless control system functionality. The work requires a complete solution that includes both mechanical and electronic components, engineered to handle the weight, dimensions, and handling requirements of these units reliably under field conditions, with full system validation planned as part of the delivery. The robotic system must be robust, operator-friendly, and capable of performing tasks autonomously or with minimal human intervention in varied environments. This subcontract is issued under NAICS code 333923, indicating specialization in other industrial machinery manufacturing, and is managed by the Department of Transportation under the 6973GH Franchise Acquisition Svcs entity. The proposal deadline is July 15, 2026, at 9:00 PM, with the solicitation posted on July 1, 2026, allowing interested parties a two-week window to submit responses. The place of performance and contact details are not specified, but the work is expected to involve system development, testing, and potential on-site integration. All deliverables must meet technical specifications for structural safety, operational precision, and system durability without explicit set-aside provisions outlined.
