Overview
The purpose of this RPP is to solicit a solution to prove out autonomy for UxS at the Army’s Autonomy Testing in March 2026. The purpose of this Autonomy Test is to prove out autonomous capabilities for Army Senior Leadership to make a determination on the issuance of unmanned systems with autonomous capabilities. The period of performance for this project is 16 months from project award. The Offeror shall be required to submit a viable technical solution. White paper (WP) submissions that reflect a “partial solution” to the problem scenario are not acceptable.
The Government anticipates awarding up to three Prototype Project Agreements (PPA) as a result of proposal evaluations but based on solutions provided and availability of assets and funding, the Government may award to more or less vendors.
The results of the Autonomy Testing will be used to help inform Army Senior Leaders on long-term decisions for autonomy. Further, the Autonomy Testing results will also be used, in part, to determine whether a vendor should proceed forward into a follow-on production effort. The follow-on production will be handled as a separate contracting action outside of the DAI OTA.
The Government is not obligated to issue an award from this RPP.

Industry Day | RPP-25-D12 | Registration Closes at 3PM ET on 13 May 25
PEO GCS’s PdL RS&C in coordination with RCCTO intends to host an Industry Day to lay out the planned acquisition approach, associated schedules, and an update to requirements for UxS Autonomous Mobility. This Industry Day will occur on 20 May 2025, from 9 am- 5 pm at the Velocity Center in Sterling Heights, MI.
DRAFT PSPEC Released | RPP-25-D12 | Request for Feedback by 3PM ET 16 May 25
The intent of this project is to select multiple Autonomous Mobility vendors that will integrate their systems onto a robotic platform and demonstrate autonomous mobility capabilities at an Army-hosted Autonomy Test scheduled for summer 2026. This project is intended to prove out the field-ability of autonomous mobility capabilities to the Army and is a complementary and collaborative line of effort to the RCCTO Human Machine Interface Formation (HMIF) network of projects. The anticipated period of performance for this project is 16-months.
