2021 Autonomous Mobile Robot RFP Template

AMRs have become a valuable tool for improving warehousing, fulfillment, and material handling processes within your supply chain. The decision to deploy this technology into your operation is critical for your ongoing improvement and modernization efforts.

The 2021 AMR RFP Template empowers you to objectively grade prospective vendors on the technology and functional solutions they provide. There are several worksheets included in this document, each providing detailed, best-practice information compiled from interviews and discussions with top logistics and operations professionals across industries.

Autonomous mobile robots, or AMRs, can provide a wide range of funcationality and capabilities—and it is imperative to have a strong foundation of understanding when making decisions around which AMR technology is best for your operational requirements.  Understanding the differences in these solutions will help you to better determine a best fit to meet your functional needs and deliver a powerful return on investment (ROI) while driving down operational expense.  

Company Info: This section allows you to capture detailed information about your prospective vendors and the people that stand behind their offerings.

Functionality & Technology: This comprehensive listing of capabilities shows what you should expect a vendor to provide in its product offering. Here are also columns asking providers to address the any cost and time involved in adapting this feature—and, if the functionality can be proven in a demonstration.

Deployment & Delivery: Provides you with the information to ensure that the vendor(s) you are working are equipped to deliver the solution you require and provide the requisite level of professional services and integration to deliver for any future growth potential.

Support: Post implementation support is critical to maintain operational continuity. This section covers the level and capability of the vendor relative to its support policies.

Safety and Compliance: AMR technologies operate on the floor of the warehouse—in concert with humans and other pieces of equipment. Therefore, safety and adherence to geography-specific certifications/standards is critical. This section allows you to evaluate the vendors' adherence to accepted safety standards and regulatory compliance.
