About this award
The U.S. Army awarded a $3.64 million delivery order contract to Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees) on January 15, 2025, to develop an extreme mobility chassis combining the rugged performance characteristics of wheeled systems with the terrain-handling capabilities of legged systems. The project, titled Active Suspension for Extreme Mobility (ASEM), will be performed in College Station, Texas, with completion targeted for April 15, 2027. The contract utilizes a cost-no-fee pricing structure with no set-aside designation and was awarded through full and open competition. This effort aligns with the Army's broader focus on advancing mobility technologies for tactical operations across diverse and challenging environments.
Tees, a research institution within the Texas A&M University System, brings extensive experience in defense-related research and development to this engagement, having previously delivered contract work in robotic mobility systems and advanced technology development for the Army Research, Development and Engineering Command. The research organization's multidisciplinary capabilities in autonomous systems, digital modeling, and engineering analysis position it well to address the technical challenges inherent in developing an integrated mobility platform that leverages both wheeled and legged locomotion principles to achieve enhanced performance in extreme terrain conditions.
