The Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) is conducting market research for Pneumatic Tube System (PTS) technologies to be implemented across Defense Health Agency (DHA) facilities. This Request for Information seeks vendor input to help develop an enterprise standard for evaluating and integrating PTS solutions that meet Department of Defense IT cybersecurity, interoperability, and sustainment requirements. Vendors must provide comprehensive technical information covering system characteristics, cybersecurity controls, network compatibility, authentication methods, data handling capabilities, remote maintenance features, operational technology security, and supply chain risk management. White paper submissions are limited to 16 pages and 5 MB and must be submitted via email to Gary Morrow and Jennifer Everly at DISA. The response deadline is 5:00 PM Eastern Time on September 18, 2025, with potential follow-up discussions between DISA representatives and vendors to clarify capabilities and assess risks.

This pre-solicitation notice indicates no set-aside designation is being used for this opportunity, making it available to all qualified vendors regardless of business size or socioeconomic status. The RFI document does not identify any current incumbents or existing contractors providing similar services to DHA facilities. No award values, budget ranges, or contract ceiling amounts are specified in the available documentation, as this is purely a market research initiative. The notice emphasizes that this RFI is solely for information gathering and planning purposes, with no guarantee that a subsequent solicitation or contract award will result from the responses received. The scope appears to encompass multiple DHA facilities enterprise-wide, though specific quantities of installations or implementation timelines are not detailed in the pre-solicitation materials.
