The company has asked all manufacturers and suppliers of electric AGVs to submit a proposal with the following requirements.
An electric AGV system should have capacity, navigation capabilities, safety features, and the ability to connect with the current infrastructure.

Concerning integration and compatibility, the proposal must demonstrate how their AGV system will interface smoothly with the Terminal Operating System (TOS).
In terms of cost analysis, proposals must provide a detailed cost breakdown that includes initial setup costs, ongoing maintenance, and prospective savings in costs compared to traditional AGV systems.
