AI-driven Supply Chain Analytics Platform

The Department of Justice, through its Headquarters office in Springfield, VA, is conducting market research via a Request for Information (RFI) titled AI-driven Supply Chain Analytics Platform, solicitation number 15DDHQ-26-RFI-FAIT03, issued on April 27, 2026, with responses due by May 1, 2026. This RFI is strictly for planning purposes and does not constitute a solicitation for contract award, with no set-asides or socioeconomic considerations applied. Respondents are required to submit detailed information on AI-powered solutions capable of delivering end-to-end supply chain transparency by integrating global trade, corporate ownership, logistics, and sanctions data using advanced entity resolution, multi-tier network mapping, and real-time risk scoring. The platform must operate as a standalone, browser-accessible system with 99.5% uptime, deployable on AWS or Azure within U.S. geographic regions, and must ensure government data sovereignty through a federated architecture that prevents any use of sensitive government data for training commercial AI models. Vendors must hold active FedRAMP-High, ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type I and II, and Cyber Essentials Plus certifications, enforce role-based access controls with single sign-on integration, and support Top Secret clearance-holding personnel for data handling. The solution must include continuous data validation, provenance tracking to distinguish declared from derived data, and compliance with standardized identifiers such as HS Code, ECCN, and IMO. Responses are limited to 10 pages in standard formats, must include the company’s CAGE code, and can be supplemented by brochures or white papers, all submitted via email to fac.proposal.submission@dea.gov by the deadline. Any submitted information is bound by strict confidentiality obligations, limiting use to this RFI response and prohibiting unauthorized disclosure or reproduction. The anticipated contract, if a solicitation follows, will be Firm Fixed Price with a 12-month base period and two optional 12-month extensions, totaling up to 36 months of performance, and will require delivery of comprehensive annual training, documentation, and ongoing support included in the fixed license fee.
