RIC Robotics announced the launch of its Robotics as a Service (RaaS) ecosystem, a new flexible deployment model designed to help developers, contractors and construction firms integrate robotic construction technologies into commercial, residential and infrastructure projects.
The new RaaS offering expands access to RIC Robotics’ proprietary mobile robotic construction systems and large-scale 3D concrete printing technologies through flexible deployment models designed to help builders integrate robotic construction technologies into real-world projects more efficiently and at greater scale.
“Construction is entering a period of significant technological transformation, but widespread adoption depends on making these technologies more accessible and operationally practical for real-world projects,” said Ryan Cox, CEO of RIC Robotics and former COO of Alquist 3D, where he oversaw major 3D concrete printing projects, including the Walmart expansion developments. “Our Robotics as a Service platform is designed to lower barriers to adoption while giving developers and contractors the flexibility, support and deployment expertise needed to successfully integrate robotic construction systems into active projects.”
The launch comes as adoption of robotic construction and 3D concrete printing technologies continues accelerating across the construction industry. According to Grandview Research, the U.S. 3D concrete printing market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 42.9% through 2030 as developers and contractors increasingly seek faster and more scalable construction solutions.
RIC Robotics’ systems have already supported a range of commercial and residential projects across the United States, including more than 20,000 square feet of Walmart Supercenter expansion projects in Athens, Tennessee and Huntsville, Alabama, where the company’s large-scale 3D concrete printing technology was deployed. The company’s growing project portfolio also includes residential housing initiatives across Colorado, California, Kentucky and Texas, as well as commercial and housing-focused developments in Nevada and Oklahoma.
RIC Robotics combines robotic construction systems with hands-on project execution, training, material solutions and implementation support designed to help clients successfully deploy robotic construction technologies at scale. The company is also investing in workforce development and training infrastructure to support long-term industry adoption of robotic construction technologies.
