About this file
This document is a project scope of work for a Robotic Site Preparation Technology Assessment for the Construction of a Lunar Innovation Park, to be performed by LUNIVA, LLC in fiscal year 2025. The project involves developing recommendations for robotic site preparation equipment, including analyzing system parameters such as number and scale of systems, infrastructure layout, power and communication constraints, and reliability assessments. The four-month project timeline includes weekly on-site collaboration, data collection from site preparation organizations, equipment trade studies, reliability assessments, and culminates in an academic paper.
The vendor, Nipesh Pradhananga, Ph.D. from LUNIVA, LLC, will engage third-party organizations to collect data on state-of-the-art technologies and will complete training to access GMRO facilities like the Regolith Test Bed. The project's deliverables include monthly progress reports, preliminary and final findings from trade and reliability studies, and a draft academic paper. The document also lists numerous relevant publications by the vendor in areas of construction technology, safety planning, and infrastructure analysis, demonstrating expertise in technological assessment and construction engineering.

Project: Robotic Site Preparation Technology Assessment for the Construction of a Lunar Innovation Park
Vendor: Nipesh Pradhananga, Ph. D., LUNIVA, LLC
Scope of Work:
LUNIVA, LLC will perform trades and develop recommendations for robotic site preparation equipment to support the construction of a Lunar Innovation Park (LIP) (e.g., number of systems, scale of systems, multi-purpose vs single purpose). This includes sensitivity analysis on specific LIP parameters (e.g., prepared area of infrastructure elements, distance between infrastructure elements, time to build, power constraints, communications constraints) to account for uncertainty in layout and other factors. It also includes an assessment of reliability of various site preparation system embodiments to recommend configurations that maximize useful life. A plan for construction operations and logistics will be developed. The scope of work may require testing and analysis to support recommendations with data. LUNIVA, LLC will engage with third party organizations to collect data on the state of the art, constraints, use cases and analytical tools. The work will culminate in an academic paper describing the tasks, findings, and recommendations.
