About this opportunity
The Food and Drug Administration is conducting a Sources Sought Request for Information (RFI) for market research on a Comprehensive Data Management & Streamlining Solution for Business-Critical Data (Data Stream), with responses due by October 19, 2026. This procurement is designated for Woman-Owned Small Business award.
The FDA will not make a selection decision, award a contract, or provide acknowledgment of receipt, answers to questions, or discussions based on RFI responses; responses are for market research purposes only to assess vendor capability to meet Data Stream requirements.
The scope supports the FDA's Center for Tobacco Products in developing a product-centric data management solution to address current inefficiencies where submission data is organized around individual submissions rather than products. Key deliverables include comprehensive data inventory and baseline assessment of the submission data landscape; development of a product definition framework and cross-submission linking methodology grounded in empirical evidence; one or more prototype capabilities assisting reviewer workflow; feasibility analysis for associating product representations across submissions when identifiers are missing or unstable; optional proof-of-concept demonstration with integration readiness artifacts; AI-enabled metadata tagging; and findings and options analysis for future planning. Work is limited to discovery, data modeling, definition, feasibility analysis, and proof-of-concept activities.
The anticipated contract structure is firm fixed-price with a 12-month period of performance. The contractor must provide project management support including project plan, monthly status reports, agile roadmap, staffing plan, and quality assurance surveillance plan, with administrative oversight and repository maintenance at FDA headquarters. All deliverables shall be owned solely by FDA.
Respondents must submit complete responses by email to jada.scott@fda.hhs.gov with a five-page maximum narrative response to proposed solutions per the attached Draft Statement of Work.
