Advanced Robotic Vehicles

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is seeking information on advanced robotic vehicles for law enforcement usage. The DEA is interested in solutions that can navigate complex and varied environments, including paved streets, off-road terrain, stairs, and confined spaces. The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to gather information from the market place on currently available products and emerging technologies, capabilities, pricing, and best practices related to robotic systems. • The DEA is looking for robotic vehicles that can perform tasks such as barricade scenarios, hazardous warrant executions, explosive ordinance disposal (EOD), hazardous material incidents, search and rescue operations, and other tactical situations involving armed suspects. • The DEA is interested in learning about the vendor's experience in providing robotic solutions to law enforcement or military agencies. • The DEA is seeking information on the robotic vehicle's capabilities, including its ability to navigate various terrains, climb stairs, and overcome obstacles. • The DEA is also interested in learning about the vehicle's control system, payloads, and accessories, such as manipulator arm capabilities, gas deployment systems, armor configuration, camera systems, communication systems, and sensors.
