QuikBot Technologies has been awarded a tender by Republic Polytechnic to conduct a Robotic Middleware Framework (RMF) feasibility study and lead a digital twin deployment pilot. The win extends QuikBot’s reach into the education sector, where the demands on autonomous systems differ considerably from commercial logistics.

Republic Polytechnic is exploring how RMF can coordinate multiple robot fleets across its campus, managing traffic, task allocation, and system interoperability between different robot types and vendors. QuikBot will assess deployment viability, map out infrastructure requirements, and build a digital twin of the environment to simulate and validate autonomous operations before any physical rollout.

“Winning this tender with Republic Polytechnic is meaningful on multiple levels,” said Alan Ng, CEO of QuikBot Technologies. “Campus environments are complex. High footfall, mixed user groups, and unique operational rhythms. Getting this right through a rigorous feasibility study and digital twin pilot is exactly the approach autonomous systems deserve.”

The digital twin is central to the project. By creating a virtual replica of the physical environment, QuikBot can model robot behaviour, identify bottlenecks, and stress-test deployment scenarios without disrupting daily campus operations. For institutions considering RMF for the first time, it substantially reduces deployment risk.

The project adds to QuikBot’s track record across commercial sites including South Beach, Mapletree Business City, Geneo, and Ascent, and opens a new front in institutional and campus environments.
