I think it was heavily implied that she was built as an alternate to the Huntsmen. Why rely on flesh and blood and illogical people when robots can do the job for you?

I kind of doubt he had two Penny's built though. More likely she was a prototype; test her in the tournament, and if she does well they can start the production of more and start rolling them out as an alternative to Human/Faunus Huntsmen.
