Endeavor Robotics, the world’s leading provider of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), was awarded a firm-fixed-price, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract by the US Army to modernize and maintain its existing fleet of robot platforms.

The firm’s family of ground robots are used by the Army for a wide range of missions.

Since 2002, Endeavor has supplied robots to the US Army and other US military service branches. Its robots have helped troops defeat tens of thousands of IEDs worldwide. In late 2017, Endeavor won the US Army’s Man Transportable Robotic System Increment II program. Under that award, worth up to $158 million, the company is building the Army’s next medium-weight robot that will provide increased standoff capability to Soldiers, protecting them from a range of potentially lethal threats.
