All development, testing, and delivery must occur in FRA-provided Azure or AWS tenants or DOT-authorized environments; contractor-hosted or third-party cloud services are prohibited. The Government retains unlimited rights to all deliverable code and will host the model on the FRA GitHub repository under an open-source license.

Place of performance is Boalsburg, PA. The contract carries a firm-fixed-price structure with an ultimate completion date of May 20, 2029. The originating solicitation posted on February 9, 2026, with a March 23, 2026 due date and anticipated award in April 2026.
