Swarmbotics fireant

The General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service is soliciting quotations for Swarmbotics AI FireAnt robotic units and field service support through a Request for Quote (RFQ) with an all-or-none award requirement. The procurement seeks two units of the Swarmbotics AI FireAnt part number SB-FA41, a 4.1 retrofitted robotic unit equipped with advanced connectivity options including Starlink, Commercial 5G with mesh radio capability, and Iridium payload support, along with one Field Service Representative to provide six days of on-site support including travel and per diem costs. Qualifying vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database and capable of accepting purchase orders through either the GSA Order Management Services (OMS) Vendor Portal or Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), and must demonstrate compliance with MIL-STD-129 marking and labeling standards. Award will be based on low price among vendors that meet all administrative compliance requirements, with desired arrival receipt offer (DARO) serving as a tiebreaker factor. The solicitation was posted on March 21, 2026, with quotations due by March 23, 2026, and technical questions should be directed to kylie.ferraz@gsa.gov.

This procurement is not set aside exclusively for small business, and no incumbent contractor information is provided in the solicitation documents. The FireAnt units must meet specific technical specifications including a maximum weight of 100 pounds, endurance exceeding 15 miles, speeds over 6 meters per second, and compliance with IP66 environmental standards and MIL-STD-810 requirements, along with required sensors such as GPS, IMU, stereo camera, near infrared camera, and microphone. Vendors may propose brand-name equal alternatives with supporting technical documentation, and all deliveries must be made on a FOB Destination basis to Fort Campbell North, Fort Campbell, Kentucky 42223, within the Continental United States. The RFQ requests a desired arrival receipt of eight days, and vendors must provide both unit pricing and extended pricing for all requested items. No specific budget amount or award value is disclosed in the solicitation documents, though the all-or-none award structure indicates the government intends to procure the complete quantity of both robotic units and field service support from a single vendor.
