About this IDV

US Special Operations Command awarded an Other Transaction IDV to Roam Robotics Inc., a small business specializing in wearable exoskeleton technologies, with a ceiling of $12,500,000 on November 25, 2019. The OTA sits outside the FAR and supports SBIR Phase III prototyping work to develop and assess a pneumatic exoskeleton system for military utility, specifically a knee and ankle system prototype.

Roam Robotics brings direct technical expertise in pneumatic actuation, powered exoskeleton design, and soldier mobility enhancement systems developed through prior Phase II SBIR work and multiple federal research contracts with the Air Force Research Laboratory and Defense Health Agency. The company's focus on reducing soldier fatigue and improving operational capability aligns with Special Operations Command's requirement for advanced mobility enhancement platforms.

This OT IDV enables flexible task-order issuance based on operational requirements and research outcomes, providing strategic continuity for prototype refinement and advanced research in pneumatic exoskeleton systems, compressor technology, and intent recognition software. The vehicle structure supports delivery of prototypes and research milestones rather than traditional production procurement, allowing iterative development cycles typical of SBIR Phase III transitional prototyping efforts under 10 U.S.C. § 4022 authority.
