(HQ) N65 requires two robots to be engineered, modified, and delivered by July 2021 for testing and a demonstration in August 2021. The specification shall include an Autonomous Mobile

Robots (AMR) with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) capability. The Clearpath Robotics

AMR Otto 100 is the only solution that can meet this need. The Otto 100 robot can integrate

RFID readers, does not use prohibited components and the software can be hosted locally. No other AMR solutions exist that possess this required RFID capability.

Other AMR products add unacceptable risk due to non-compliance with CYBERFORCOM IA security.
