About this file
This document is a set of Answers to Questions for a Request for Information (RFI) regarding Crash Investigation & Data Event Recovery Software for the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). The RFI seeks information about potential software solutions to replace the existing CIDER system, which was originally developed by General Dynamics Information Technology, Inc. Key details include that the NTSB currently maintains over 2,200 case files that would need to be migrated to a new system, but has not yet established a specific budget, procurement timeline, or implementation timeline. The agency is in an exploratory phase, has not seen any system demonstrations, and would consider the incumbent contractor along with other potential respondents if a future Request for Proposal (RFP) is issued.
