The NATO Communications and Information Agency is seeking industry input through a Request for Information to evaluate Commercial Off-The-Shelf solutions for modernizing e-procurement functions under Source-to-Contract, Contract Lifecycle Management, and Vendor Management, as part of its broader NATO Digital Transformation initiative. The effort aims to map market capabilities, delivery models, and implementation risks to inform future acquisition strategies, with clear exclusion of the Procure-to-Pay components, which are considered dependencies of existing Enterprise Resource Planning systems. Respondents are asked to provide detailed feedback on capabilities through Annex A, a Rough Order of Magnitude estimate via Annex B Part 1, and commentary on the Epic-Outcome Matrix in Annex B Part 2 to help shape the scope and direction of a potential procurement. All responses must be submitted by 12:00 hours CET on 07 September 2026, and should reference the official RFI number RFI-CO-424390-PIVOT in all communications. This is strictly a market research effort and not a solicitation for bids or proposals, and submissions must not be sent to the Department of Commerce despite its appearance in the contract data. The NAICS code 541519 indicates the focus is on other computer-related services, and the intended audience includes technology providers with experience in enterprise procurement platforms. The NCIA invites stakeholders to contribute insights that will inform a structured acquisition path for integrated, scalable, and secure procurement systems across NATO entities.

The NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA), in coordination with the NATO Digital Transformation program and relevant NATO entities, is conducting market research to understand market capabilities and gather input on potential Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) solutions to support the acquisition of e-procurement capabilities across Source-to-Contract (S2C), Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM), Vendor Management (VM), and associated cross-cutting platform services.


The downstream finance-facing Procure-to-Pay (P2P) component (i.e., invoice capture, three-way matching, payments, budget control and commitments, and non-PO spend) is treated as an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Tool dependency and is out of scope for this RFI. NCIA welcomes industry feedback on this scoping boundary.


This RFI is issued for planning purposes only and is not a request for bids. It is part of NCIA’s effort to ensure a clear understanding of the marketplace, available capabilities, delivery models, implementation risks, and potential acquisition strategies.


NCIA values your insight and invites you to share relevant corporate capabilities and experience by responding to the enclosed questions (Annex A), providing a Rough Order of Magnitude (Annex B: Part 1), and commenting on the Epic-Outcome Matrix
(Annex B: Part 2).


NCIA requests to receive responses no later than 12:00 hours CET on 07 September 2026.


Do NOT submit your RFI response to the Department of Commerce. Submission instructions and additional details can be found in the RFI (attached).


The NCIA reference for this RFI-CO-424390-PIVOT, and all correspondence concerning this matter should reference this number.


NCIA thanks you in advance for your time and input and looks forward to engaging with you as it shapes this potential acquisition.
