Request for Information- NEI Library

The National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) for the Non-Earth Imaging (NEI) Library project, focusing on software solutions for NEI data projects. The RFI aims to identify industry capabilities and gather comments from potential contractors regarding software development services. The opportunity is posted on the classified Intelligence Community Acquisition Research Center (ARC) website, with access restricted to parties who obtain a classified ARC account. Interested vendors must create an account on the unclassified ARC website and have their classified email address added to their profile, with account activation taking 24-48 hours. The response deadline is 5:00 PM Eastern on January 8, 2025, and potential respondents must carefully follow the access procedures outlined in the notice.

The pre-solicitation notice does not specify a set-aside designation, indicating the opportunity is open to all qualified vendors in the Custom Computer Programming Services category (NAICS 541511). No specific incumbent contractors or current service providers are mentioned in the notice. While the exact award value is not disclosed, the RFI suggests the project will involve comprehensive software solutions for NEI data projects, likely requiring significant technical expertise in custom computer programming. The procurement is being conducted by the Department of Defense's National Geospatial Intelligence Agency, with the primary PSC category being IT and Telecom - Business Application/Application Development Support Services.
