The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is seeking sources capable of providing Information Technology and Data Analytics support services for the ONR Comptroller's Office (Code 08) through this Request for Information/Sources Sought. The Government is particularly interested in identifying small businesses with advanced capabilities in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, cloud and data engineering (AWS/Azure at Impact Level 5), full-stack application development and modernization, and Agile/DevSecOps methodologies to sustain a comprehensive, cloud-based data and analytics environment supporting the Navy's Science and Technology portfolio. Prospective contractors must demonstrate expertise in data science, business intelligence, cloud infrastructure management, and specialized science and technology analysis including bibliometrics and technology landscape assessments. Respondents must submit a Capabilities Statement not exceeding 10 pages addressing seven parts: Business Information, Corporate Information and Experience, Technical Capabilities, Staffing and PWS Feedback, Security, Commerciality, and Compliance. The deadline for submission is February 6, 2026, at 12:00 pm EST to the Contract Specialist Michael Lemon and Contracting Officer Alejandro Moreno. Important to note is that this is an RFI only and does not constitute a Request for Proposal; the Government will not award a contract from this announcement and will not reimburse expenses associated with responding.

This procurement uses no set-aside designation and consolidates two previously separate contracts: N0001421C4005 (awarded to Nakapuna Companies) and a GSA Task Order (47QTCK18D0004/47QFDA24F0025) previously awarded to Booz Allen Hamilton. The Government anticipates awarding a Firm Fixed-Price contract for a 48-month period of performance with the primary place of performance at a Government site with telework options available. The applicable NAICS code is 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services with a size standard of $34 million) and the Product Service Code is DF01 (IT Management Support Services). The notional staffing model specifies 11 Full-Time Equivalents totaling 20,680 hours, including project managers, full-stack developers, data architects, data scientists, cloud infrastructure specialists, and business intelligence developers. All personnel must be U.S. citizens with active Secret security clearances and appropriate DoD certifications in Information Assurance; the Government explicitly welcomes feedback on the proposed staffing plan and alternative labor models from respondents.
