The hardware works. What fails is everything around it: the site survey nobody did, the elevator that will not talk to the fleet, the union conversation held too late, the pilot designed to demo instead of to measure. AAMC runs robotics programs the way boards need them run: instrumented, defensible, and economically honest.
Delivery and concierge robotics that survive contact with a real property, not a trade-show booth.
Platform selection and pilot governance for general-purpose humanoids, run with clearance-grade documentation discipline.
AMR fleets, cobots, and inspection automation woven into lines that cannot stop for experiments.
Service and kitchen automation that holds up on a Friday night, chosen against margins, not hype.
AAMC's standing research program on human-robot coexistence economics: where humanoid labor crosses wage lines, which verticals absorb it first, and what that does to org design between now and 2030. The economic model, the data, and the working paper live at humanrobot2030.org.

Floors walked, lifts tested, Wi-Fi mapped, staff interviewed.
Unit economics modeled against your labor reality, not vendor decks.
90 days, instrumented, with kill conditions signed before day one.
Board report: scale, renegotiate, or stop. All three are wins.
Multi-site playbooks, vendor management, quarterly economics reviews.
No. Between OEM retrofit modules, third-party bridges, and staged operation (robot rides with a staff escort during a proving period), there is nearly always a path. The audit prices all three against your lift stock before you commit to anything.
Today: narrow task profiles with high shift-loading, in markets with wage structures like the GCC, Singapore, and Japan. The honest answer is a spreadsheet, not a keynote, and it is the first thing a pilot produces.
Deployments fail in the break room before they fail on the floor. Workforce design, role redefinition, and the union conversation where relevant, are inside scope from phase one, not an afterthought.
