AI Contract Overview
The Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency is seeking innovative solutions through a Request for Information to establish a contractor-owned and operated public records data service capable of supporting its Personnel Vetting and Continuous Vetting missions for approximately five million individuals. The required system must deliver continuous, 24/7/365 access to a comprehensive range of public record data—including criminal, civil, financial (both FCRA and non-FCRA), identity, and asset information—while automatically identifying and notifying the agency of derogatory information within 24 hours to enable timely risk mitigation. The solution must seamlessly integrate with the National Background Investigation Services platform using machine-readable formats and maintain all system components, data, and personnel at a SECRET security clearance level. Strict compliance with federal regulations is mandatory, including adherence to the Privacy Act and the Federal Information Security Management Act, with all data encrypted both in transit and at rest. All work must be conducted by U.S. persons, and the contractor must comply with DD Form 254 and the National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual. Advance notice of at least two weeks is required for any changes affecting data coverage or system performance, with three months' notice mandated for changes that impact downstream government systems. The previous iteration of this requirement was awarded solely to LexisNexis Special Services under Task Order HS002126FE018, and this RFI serves as market research ahead of a planned Request for Proposal expected in late 2026. Responses are limited to five pages and must include the Notice ID Number in the email subject line, submitted to the designated point of contact at the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency in Quantico, Virginia.

Full Description
This Request for Information (RFI) seeks sources to provide a comprehensive public record data service solution for the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA). The primary objective is to support DCSA's Personnel Vetting (PV) and Continuous Vetting (CV) missions by enabling automated record checks and delivering proactive, actionable alerts for a large enrolled population. The desired solution will be contractor-owned and operated, providing continuous access to a broad spectrum of data, including criminal, financial (both FCRA and non-FCRA), civil, and identity-related public records. The service must be capable of identifying and delivering notifications of derogatory information within 24 hours to support the identification of potential risks within the trusted federal and industrial workforce.
The solution must meet stringent operational and security requirements, including the ability for the system, data, and personnel to possess and maintain a SECRET security clearance. It must comply with federal data protection mandates such as the Privacy Act and FISMA, with all data encrypted in transit and at rest. A key technical requirement is the ability for seamless integration with the government's National Background Investigation Services (NBIS) platform, delivering data in a machine-readable format. Respondents should describe their capabilities in providing reliable data, timely alerts, robust program support, and their approach to meeting the specific data categories and entity resolution matching requirements outlined in the Statement of Objectives (SOO).
The previous contract action was a Sole Source Award to LexisNexis Special Services under Task Order: HS002126FE018.
Respondants to this RFI should provide product information for a proposed solution to the attached SOO as well as a Person of Contact to potentially be a part of Market Research.

A Request for Proposal RFP is planned to be released as it relates to this requirement in the later part of 2026. The SOO included with this RFI is a draft version and likely to change.
