The procurement was awarded to ANYbotics AG, with the total contract value amounting to £210,000. The procurement method employed was a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, reflecting the specific technical requirements met by the chosen supplier. The contract was formally signed on 1st March 2019, with the location of the procurement being Edinburgh, Scotland. This tender presents a unique opportunity for businesses in the fields of robotics and advanced technology, particularly those specialising in robotic systems and components. Suppliers who are capable of providing state-of-the-art robotic equipment, assembly, calibration, and software integration would find this procurement particularly relevant. Given the emphasis on innovative applications for research and industrial uses, companies with expertise in quadrupedal robotics, navigation solutions, and engineering services could leverage this opportunity to enhance their market presence and capabilities. ## Notice Quadrupedal robot ANYmal fully assembled, calibrated, and tested, including the software for control, localization and mapping. ANYmal upgrade to existing ANYmal: Upgrade of the eight hip and knee joints with the active cooling system. Upgrade all your ANYdrives (incl. the spares) to the newest prototype version. The upgrade will significantly prolong the lifetime of the ANYdrives. ### Lot Information Lot 1 Quadrupedal robot ANYmal fully assembled, calibrated, and tested, including the software for control, localization and mapping. ANYmal upgrade to existing ANYmal: Upgrade of the eight hip and knee joints with the active cooling system. Upgrade all your ANYdrives (incl. the spares) to the newest prototype version. The upgrade will significantly prolong the lifetime of the ANYdrives. ### Procurement Information The platform is an entirely self-contained robot quadruped capable of a variety of locomotion gaits with a battery life of 3 hours in the new models. It also carries a variety of ranging and optical sensors for perception. It will be used in research regarding point-to-point navigation and mapping. It will also be used to develop novel quadruped walking gaits and compliant contact. Possible applications of this work are industrial inspection and disaster response. The robot will use the same software and sensor systems (spinning LIDAR and stereo camera) as our Husky and Valkyrie robots so as to maximize compatibility and cross use of software between our equipment. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT369962 | | Notice type | OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Limited | | Procurement method details | Award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 22 Oct 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 1 Mar 2019 | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | £210,000 | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Complete | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Active | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH1 1HT | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | City Centre | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh East and Musselburgh | | Delivery location | TLM75 City of Edinburgh | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | ANYBOTICS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 38 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) ### Codes - 38000000 - Laboratory, optical and precision equipments (excl. glasses) ## Release History - 22 Oct 2019 at 00:00 - Award - OJEU - F3 - Contract Award Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT369962 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=OCT369962 Quadrupedal robot ANYmal - Quadrupedal robot ANYmal fully assembled, calibrated, and tested, including the software for control, localization and mapping.
