Request for Information (RFI) - Army Intelligence Data Platform (AIDP) Cloud to Edge (CtoE)

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) to develop the next iteration of the Army Intelligence Data Platform (AIDP) Cloud to Edge (CtoE) capabilities. The RFI seeks a modular, adaptable software suite that supports intelligence analysis across different echelons, with globally accessible tools and the ability to operate in contested or degraded network environments. The government is exploring multiple acquisition approaches, including commercial item procurements and other transaction authorities (OTA), and is encouraging industry feedback on the most effective strategy for delivering AIDP capabilities. Potential vendors are requested to provide detailed responses addressing corporate experience with cloud-based software platforms, agile development approaches, evaluation factor recommendations, third-party capability integration, and edge node system development. Responses are due by May 30, 2025, must not exceed 10 pages, and can be submitted via email to specified government contacts.

There are no specific set-aside designations for this opportunity, and no incumbent contractors are mentioned in the documentation. The Army anticipates releasing a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) in early fiscal year 2026, with the ultimate goal of developing an intelligence platform that can seamlessly interface across Joint and Coalition operations from Top Secret to Secret domains. While specific award values or budget ranges are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the RFI suggests a comprehensive software development effort targeting intelligence data management and analysis capabilities. The platform is intended to be flexible and rapidly adaptable, capable of supporting software and services across multiple intelligence disciplines and deployable within various command and control platforms. The contract appears to be focused on creating a sophisticated, modular intelligence data management solution that can operate effectively across different technological and operational environments.
