Abstract

A method in accordance with a particular embodiment of the present technology includes implementing an order-fulfillment workflow via an order-fulfillment system including a fleet of bimanual mobile robots respectively equipped with end-effector sets. The fleet includes subfleets assigned to different respective operation types within the order-fulfillment workflow. The method further includes receiving updated information for the order-fulfillment workflow and determining a reallocation of at least some of the mobile robots among the subfleets based at least partially on the updated information. The method also includes implementing the reallocation by, in part, changing the respective end-effector sets of the reallocated mobile robots from first end-effector sets of a first set type to second end-effector sets of a second set type different than the first set type.
