About this opportunity
The First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet Authority), an independent authority within the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration, is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) to identify commercially available, FedRAMP Moderate compliant artificial intelligence solutions for a Data Verification and Validation Link Analysis Software Platform. This platform will support network performance analytics, data validation, predictive modeling, and visualization capabilities for the Nationwide Public Safety Broadband Network (NPSBN), with key objectives including validating carrier-provided network and cybersecurity data, predicting performance trends, benchmarking network quality, and integrating geospatial datasets. The solution must be capable of ingesting and processing large volumes of structured and unstructured data, applying machine learning techniques for data cleansing and validation, delivering real-time and historical analytics, and providing secure cloud-native visualization with role-based access controls. While this is a Request for Information for market research purposes only and does not constitute a commitment to conduct a follow-on solicitation, the FirstNet Authority is using vendor responses to determine the appropriate acquisition method, contract vehicle, and whether small business set-asides are feasible. Responses are limited to ten pages and must be submitted by February 6, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. ET to adam.powell@firstnet.gov; Amendment 004 extended the original January 30, 2026 deadline and provided responses to 101 industry questions.
This RFI is designated with no set-aside; however, the agency is conducting market research to determine if set-asides will be possible in a future solicitation. The incumbent contractor is Government Acquisitions Inc., operating under task order NNG15SD23B/1333P224F00000028 with a total award value of $6,022,355.88, though the FirstNet Authority has not indicated performance deficiencies with the incumbent. The anticipated contract structure includes a 12-month base period with four optional extension years, with the platform expected to support approximately 75 concurrent users, achieve 99.9% system uptime, and process data volumes scaling from approximately 5 terabytes to 150 terabytes over the contract period. Critical technical requirements include hosting in a FedRAMP-certified AWS GovCloud environment, compliance with federal security standards (FISMA, NIST, GDPR, CCPA), support for 2-second average response times for standard interactive queries, and delivery of ten fully implemented AI use cases within the first year. The FirstNet Authority currently operates an Azure database integrated with Palantir Foundry and is seeking solutions that can support sustainment, transition, reuse, and enhancement of existing capabilities while enabling advanced AI/ML analytics for network performance monitoring, with all data ingested or processed to be considered Government property requiring unrestricted access and export capability in common formats.
