Why this project qualifies
With $110 million in facility-specific investment, this project clears AFT's $100 million investment threshold (AFT includes any project meeting $100 million in facility-specific investment OR 100 permanent operating jobs). This project also meets AFT's primary-source verification and physical U.S. manufacturing-footprint requirements.

The robotics & automation context.
Robotics & Automation tracks qualifying U.S. facilities manufacturing industrial robots, humanoid robots, automated systems and related robotic equipment. The category follows the physical production sites where robotics companies build machines and core components, while distinguishing them from software-only, research-only, warehouse-operations and end-user deployment projects.
