About this opportunity

The Treasury Common Services Center (TCSC), on behalf of the Treasury Office of Inspector General (TOIG), published a Special Notice on December 18, 2025, announcing its intent to sole source a contract with TRM Labs, Inc. for forensic software licensing and training. The notice seeks to procure a Forensic License plus Academy Access from TRM Labs to enhance the agency's cryptocurrency investigation capabilities. This software enables tracing crypto transactions between entities and addresses, detecting suspicious patterns, and visualizing fund movements essential for investigative purposes. The Department of the Treasury Bureau of the Fiscal Service, classified as a civilian agency, is the sponsoring organization for this procurement. The notice explicitly states that no formal solicitation is available, and telephone inquiries will not be accepted.

The primary objective is to equip the Office of Investigations within Branch 2 with a dedicated crypto analysis capability to support legal proceedings and asset seizure operations. The contract will span one 12-month base period with one optional 12-month renewal year. All responsible sources are invited to submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations by January 7, 2026, at 10:00 AM EST to purchasing@fiscal.treasury.gov, reference number SS-OIG-26-005. Submissions must include sufficient evidence demonstrating the company's capability to meet the described requirements, with responses limited to Microsoft Office non-macro documents and PDF formats. While the government reserves the right to award to TRM Labs on a sole source basis, it will evaluate all responses received; however, the ultimate decision to compete or sole source this procurement remains solely within government discretion.

Notice text

Treasury Common Services Center (TCSC), on behalf of the Treasury Office of Inspector General  (TOIG), intends to contract with TRM Labs, Inc., on a sole source basis for the purchase of Forensic License plus Academy Access. TRM Labs provides a method to trace crypto between entities and addresses, allowing for both rapid decision making at a macro level as well as the ability to 
drill into specific fund movements. This is specifically essential for seeking legal process that broadens the scope of any investigation involving crypto. TRM Forensics automatically detects and surfaces suspicious patterns across transactions, as well as common programmatic tactics, such as peeling chains and layering. This visualization assists with the identification of a chain of custody for crypto which is necessary for the seizure of these assets. This tool is essential for the success of Branch 2 to provide the Office of Investigations with a crypto analysis capability.

The period of performance for the purchase order/contract is anticipated to be one 12-month base period with one (1) 12-month option year.
