Enterprise Financial and Market Intelligence Platform

The Department of Commerce National Institute of Standards and Technology is soliciting quotations for an Enterprise Financial and Market Intelligence Platform to support the CHIPS Program Office. This platform will provide current and historical financial, operational, and ownership data for both public and private companies to assist in grant and loan applicant evaluations, portfolio monitoring, risk assessments, and due diligence related to the CHIPS and Science Act. Key technical requirements include comprehensive company coverage, supply chain mapping, corporate hierarchy visualization, AI-assisted analytical tools, and seamless integration with Microsoft Excel. The contractor will provide up to 23 platform licenses, user documentation, and technical support. This is a firm-fixed-price contract with a base period of six months and four optional 12-month extension periods. Award will be based on best value, with technical capabilities—including the depth of company coverage and AI functionality—weighted significantly more than price. Proposals must be submitted in two separate volumes, Technical and Price, by August 14, 2026. To be eligible, offerors must be active registrants in the System for Award Management and ensure their electronic and information technology meets Access Board accessibility standards under 36 CFR 1194. Performance will occur within the contractor's cloud-hosted environment, and the government will conduct final inspection and acceptance at the NIST facility in Gaithersburg, Maryland.
