About this opportunity

The U.S. General Services Administration's Technology Transformation Services has published a sole source justification notice for a Source Issuer Verification Solution to support Login.gov's digital identity authentication capabilities. The service requires electronic verification of U.S. state-issued driver's licenses and identity cards directly with record custodians in real-time, with coverage of at least 75% of the U.S. population holding such documents, while ensuring personal information is not retained or used for commercial purposes. GSA justifies the sole source approach by identifying the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) as the only contractor capable of providing the required services, given their existing agreements with approximately 44 states for direct electronic verification access. The estimated contract value is $22,578,137.11 for a 12-month base period with four additional 12-month option periods, structured as a Firm Fixed Unit Price contract with volume-tiered transactional pricing where the government pays only for consumed transactions. The justification will remain posted for 30 days on sam.gov, after which GSA plans to solicit an offer directly from AAMVA if no other capable sources are identified, with a planned award date of September 1, 2025.

Notice text

Login.gov enhances federal digital security by implementing robust authentication and identity proofing mechanisms, while proactively monitoring for potential identity theft to mitigate cyber risks. A key aspect of Login.gov’s authentication  approach is utilizing a Source Issuer Verification service to electronically verify U.S. State-issued Driver’s License (DL) and Identity (ID) card data directly with the custodian of the record in real time at Login.gov’s request. This results in a Government-provided “digital identity” for each user, established at National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-63-3 (or its successors) Identity Assurance Levels (IAL) 1 or 2 and Authentication Assurance Level (AAL) 2.  The resultant digital identity provides users the ability to sign in with a single set of credentials for all participating Government programs.

The Contractor must provide a Source Issuer Verification Solution that:

  • Has the ability to  electronically verify U.S. State-issued DL and ID card data directly with the custodian of the record in real time at Login.gov’s request.
  • Has coverage of at least 75% of the U.S. population who have been issued a driver’s license, driver’s permit, or other state ID document.
  • Will only verify personal information from Login.gov, it will not retain that PII nor use it for any commercial purposes. 
  • Meets GSA IT Security Policies. 

The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) is the only contractor available to perform the required services. This justification will be posted for a period of 30 days in accordance with FAR 6.305. Upon the post’s closing, and no other indication of capability amongst industry, an offer will only be solicited directly from AAMVA.

The estimated cost is $22,578,137.11 for a 12-month base period, and four 12-month option periods. In accordance with FAR 52.217-8, TTS reserves the right to extend the service up to six months if continued service is required.
