AI Contract Overview

The National Geospatial Intelligence Agency plans to issue a sole source modification to extend services under contract HM047625C0029 with ECS FEDERAL, LLC, to ensure uninterrupted support for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning model development, integration, and operational deployment. The modification includes a 12-month base period with two optional six-month extensions, allowing up to 24 months of continued support, which is necessary to bridge the gap until the follow-on GRAND CANYON procurement is completed. ECS, as the incumbent contractor under the CANYONLANDS program, provides critical capabilities including agile program management, data acquisition and labeling, enterprise platform support, AI/ML model training and validation, CI/CD pipelines, and field operations, all essential to the National System for Geospatial-Intelligence. Discontinuing support would result in a direct operational disruption impacting global missions, making continuous service by the original provider indispensable. This action is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.103-1, which permit sole source awards when only one responsible source can fulfill highly specialized requirements without incurring substantial duplication of cost or unacceptable delays. The government determines that competing this requirement would lead to inefficiencies, increased costs, or service interruptions, and that ECS is the only entity with the proven expertise, systems integration knowledge, and existing infrastructure to maintain continuity. The solicitation is issued as a presolicitation notice under FAR 5.1 to inform the public, but no competitive process will be conducted regardless of any third-party interest expressed. The point of contact for inquiries is David Baer, and responses must be submitted by July 14, 2026, though participation does not obligate the government to change its decision. Performance will be based in Springfield, Virginia.

General Info

NGA extends sole-source AI/ML support to ECS Federal for up to 24 months to avoid disruption before GRAND CANYON transition.

UNCLASSIFIED


The National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) intends to issue a sole source contract modification to ECS FEDERAL, LLC. (ECS), 2750 Prosperity Avenue, Suite 600, Fairfax, VA 22031, to extend performance of integration services in support of NGA Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) model development, integration, and operational deployment. The anticipated period of performance, of the contract modification to extend support of contract HM047625C0029, consists of a base period of 12-months, plus, two (2), 6-month option periods, for a total extension of up to 24-months. The proposed contract modification to extend support will provide continued AI/ML integration services to NGA and allow sufficient time to complete the competitive procurement process and transition to NGA’s follow-on effort titled GRAND CANYON.



ECS is the incumbent contractor providing AI/ML integration services to NGA under contract number HM047625C0029, known as CANYONLANDS. The continuation of this contract supports NGA’s Program Executive Office for Advanced Analytics’ (PEO-AA) efforts to lead the Agency’s development and integration of responsible, ethical AI/ML capabilities into the National System for Geospatial-Intelligence (NSG). The contractor will continue to provide the following contract objective(s) supporting NGA: Agile Program Management; Data Acquisition and Processing; Data Management, Analysis, and Labeling; Enterprise Platforms; AI/ML Model Training; Model Validation and Integration; Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (CI/CD); and Field Support Operations (FSO). Continued operational and developmental support by ECS is critical to ongoing global operations. Failure to issue this sole source contract modification to extend the contract period of performance will result in a break in operational support services. It is in the best interest of the Government to proceed with this sole source extension via a contract modification. More information can be made available upon request to the Government.



The statutory authority of this proposed procurement is 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), as implemented by FAR 6.103-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. Pursuant to FAR 6.103-1(c)(2), services may be deemed to be available only from the original source in the case of follow-on contracts for the continued provision of highly specialized services when it is likely that award to any other source would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition; or unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency’s requirements.



THIS PRESOLICITATION NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH FAR 5.1 AND IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. However, responsible sources may identify their interest and capabilities in this requirement. A determination by the Government not to compete this action based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government will not be responsible for costs incurred by interested parties in responding to this notice.
