About this opportunity

The Treasury Common Services Center (TCSC), on behalf of the Office of Intelligence and Analysis (OIA), intends to sole source a contract with Fathom Financial Consulting Limited, United Kingdom, for econometric modeling and financial analysis services, with responses due by July 10, 2026. The Government asserts that Fathom's proprietary services—including the Capital Flows Tracker, Energy Transition Scores, RiCArdo trade database, and Financial Vulnerabilities Indicator Model—are not available from other sources and are essential to support policy analysis and early warning on economic and financial risk.

Two of Fathom's models were developed specifically for the Intelligence Community and address questions and countries of interest to intelligence agencies; the CIA currently uses Fathom's products. OIA requires access to Fathom's global macroeconomic forecasts, scenario development capability, and economist consultations to answer policymakers' questions at country, region, and global levels.

All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation for consideration. Responses must be submitted electronically to starla.kalb@treasury.gov and include company name and location, contact information, business size designation, UEI Number, specific product details, availability through government contracts or open market, and a capabilities statement not exceeding five pages. Acceptable formats are Microsoft Office documents and Adobe PDF only. If no response demonstrates superior capability to meet all requirements by the deadline, the award will be made to Fathom on a sole source basis. The contract includes one 12-month base period and four 12-month option periods under NAICS 541990.
