About this opportunity

The Defense Intelligence Agency has awarded a sole-source contract to an undisclosed vendor for IDEA Data Analysis Software on September 30, 2026, under contract HHM40226C0021, with the award value redacted.

The justification invokes 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and cites FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), establishing that IDEA is the only commercial off-the-shelf solution meeting DIA's Office of Inspector General requirement for forensic-level data analysis capabilities mandated by the Intelligence Authorization Act FY2002. Existing tools—including Microsoft Office Suite and legacy standalone solutions—lack the technical capability to perform statistically valid sampling, transaction-level analysis, immutable audit trails with FIPS-compliant encryption, OIG-format reporting, real-time monitoring, and audit trail reconstruction. Market research per FAR Part 10 and FAR 11.105 confirmed no responsive alternatives exist with OIG-validated forensic analytics and interoperability equivalent to IDEA without substantial redevelopment costs exceeding FAR thresholds for duplication and 12–18 month timeline delays incompatible with the FY 2027 statutory audit deadline. IDEA holds OIG-specific Type Authorization, FISMA High-Impact Validation, and FIPS-compliant encryption certifications. Audimation Services, Inc. is identified as the sole authorized U.S. distributor. The period of performance is five years: base year July 30, 2026 through July 29, 2027, with four option years through July 29, 2031. The Contracting Officer certified the anticipated price as fair and reasonable based on market surveys, GSA Schedule comparisons, vendor catalogs, and competitor pricing analysis.
