About this opportunity

The Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) Tech Services Field Office is conducting market research through a Sources Sought Announcement for three small robotic quadrupeds equipped with electro-optical (EO) and LIDAR camera systems. These robotic dogs will be used by dynamic entry specialists for high-risk building entries and dangerous area searches, requiring advanced capabilities including Simultaneous Location and Mapping (SLAM), the ability to navigate stairs and cluttered environments, live stream video transmission, and floor plan generation. The robots must operate for four hours without battery changes, utilize robust radio links such as Silvus Mesh Radios for command and control in indoor environments, navigate 7-inch obstacles and stairs, and provide views under furniture while maintaining minimal operator-directed movement. The procurement agency, Naval Supply Systems Command under the Department of the Navy, is seeking vendor responses that include business details, CAGE codes, and recommended NAICS codes (considering 541330 or 334511). Responses to this market research effort are due by 10:00 AM EST on July 28, 2025, and must be submitted via email to the designated contracting personnel.

This pre-solicitation notice does not include any set-aside designations and is open to businesses of all sizes. No incumbent contractors are identified in the documentation, as this appears to be an initial market research effort for new robotic capabilities. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the government indicates purchasing authority ranging from the Simplified Acquisition Threshold for purchase orders up to $500,000 for task order delivery orders, with potential procurement through government-wide available contracts (GWACs). The procurement specifically requires three robotic units for test and evaluation purposes, with a desired delivery timeframe of 90-120 days from order placement. Performance will occur in San Diego, California, and the government plans to use a Firm Fixed-Price contract structure for the eventual procurement.
