About this opportunity
The Department of the Treasury is seeking a unified, FedRAMP-authorized cloud-based platform to consolidate fragmented FOIA and eDiscovery processes across the department's 50+ bureaus. This Sources Sought Notice, issued under FAR Part 10 for market research purposes, invites vendors to provide detailed information about their capabilities to support a department-wide Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA). The platform must manage electronically stored information (ESI) across the full lifecycle of FOIA and eDiscovery activities, including intake, processing, review, redaction, and production, while maintaining compliance with federal records, cybersecurity, and accessibility requirements. Key evaluation criteria focus on platform capabilities including AI/ML technologies, multimedia processing, high-volume workload support, federal compliance standards (FISMA, NIST, Privacy Act, Section 508), and case management features. Responses to this sources sought notice are due by December 30, 2025, and the government notes that this announcement does not constitute a commitment to issue a formal solicitation, nor will responses be compensated or returned.
No set-aside designations apply to this procurement. This is a market research initiative rather than a formal solicitation, and no current contractor incumbents are identified in the notice. The platform must support Treasury's substantial operational requirements, specifically handling terabytes of ESI data from over 100,000 personnel across multiple bureaus including the IRS, Fiscal Service, BEP, U.S. Mint, OCC, FinCEN, TTB, TIGTA, and OIG, with capability for 200+ concurrent users. While no specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the enterprise-wide scope and complexity of consolidating multiple existing systems suggest a substantial procurement. The government intends to use vendor responses to refine acquisition requirements and may incorporate information gathered into the eventual formal RFQ/RFP, though the contents of any future formal solicitation may differ from this announcement.

FOIA/eDiscovery BPA – Sources Sought Notice
** This sources sought announcement is issued for the purposes prescribed in the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) Part 10 "Market Research” and is for informational and acquisition planning purposes only. This announcement is not a request for quote (RFQ)/request for proposal (RFP) and a formal solicitation is not available at this time. If a formal RFQ/RFP is released, its contents may differ from the information contained in this announcement. This announcement does not constitute a commitment by the government to issue an RFQ/RFP, contract, or order. The government will not pay for any effort expended or any material provided in response to this announcement, nor will the government return any data provided. The government may also use information received to better define its requirements. **
- Background
The Department of the Treasury generates large volumes of Electronically Stored Information (ESI) through its mission-critical financial, regulatory, and enforcement operations. This includes email, documents, chat records, multimedia, and structured data produced across more than 100,000 personnel and 50+ bureaus such as the IRS, Fiscal Service, BEP, U.S. Mint, OCC, FinCEN, TTB, TIGTA, and OIG. Treasury’s ESI is routinely subject to FOIA requests, litigation discovery, congressional inquiries, and oversight investigations, requiring consistent, secure, and legally compliant management.
Treasury currently relies on multiple disparate FOIA and eDiscovery tools and procurement approaches, resulting in fragmented processes, duplicative investments, and inconsistent compliance with federal records, cybersecurity, and accessibility requirements. To address these challenges, Treasury intends to establish a department-wide Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for a unified, cloud-based enterprise platform. The BPA will support the full lifecycle of FOIA and eDiscovery activities—intake, processing, review, redaction, production, and archival—while ensuring compliance with FedRAMP, FISMA, Section 508, and Treasury cybersecurity directives. Treasury seeks to leverage modern commercial capabilities, including AI, machine learning, and advanced analytics, to enhance transparency, reduce backlogs, and improve operational efficiency across all bureaus.
