About this opportunity

The contract is for SITE Enterprise Monitoring & Analysis Services Subscriptions to provide human analysis and monitoring of online narratives from far-right/far-left violent extremist groups that could promote violence or mobilize potential terrorists in various languages. SITE Intelligence Group is the only provider that offers the unique data set and human analysis capabilities required. The estimated value of the one year contract is $1.5 million to be utilized from FY21 operations and support funds.

Notice text

I&A requires monitoring for Far-Right/Far-Left racially/ethnically, politically, and ideologically motivated violent extremist individuals, organizations and movements; Real-time monitoring of online material distributed by designated terrorist groups and their  supporters worldwide; Monitoring of hard-to-reach online content circulated by ISIS and AQ supporters in Southeast Asia, in regional languages including Bahasa Indonesian, Ilocano, Maguindanaoan, Malay, Maranaw, Malay, Patani, Tagalog, and Tausag; Reporting on jihadist and terrorist use of social media platforms, apps, messaging forums, mobile devices, the Dark Web and other forms of ICT; Unedited, original versions of terrorist attack manuals distributed online, including weapons and explosive materials manufacturing, purchasing and constructing homemade devices, and online training courses; Threats to healthcare, bioweapons, online conspiracy theories that could lead to violence; Monitoring of online terror financing via cryptocurrencies, crowdfunding, and money transfer services; and weekly analytical in SITE reports on ISIS and al-Qaeda, providing summaries and trends of global military claims and media productions.


The Office of Intelligence & Analysis seeks to utilize open source vendor information sources that monitor and report on issues of intelligence information interest on the Internet in the domestic and international terrorism space. Domestic Violent Extremists (DVEs) and Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) exploit a variety of popular social media platforms, smaller websites with targeted audiences, and chat applications to recruit new adherents, plan and rally support for in-person illegal actions, and disseminate materials that contribute to radicalization and mobilization to violence. In addition, foreign and domestic threat actors, including US-based DVEs, foreign terrorist organizations, and foreign intelligence services and their proxies; continue
Intelligence to either introduce or amplify narratives online that promote violence against elected officials, political representatives, government facilities, law enforcement, religious or commercial facilities, and perceived ideologically-opposed individuals, amongst other issues, which can all serve to mobilize potential violent extremists in the United States to conduct violence. The ability to maintain situational awareness of all these narratives and open source information sources is above the current capability of I&A. Private sector companies, including SITE Intelligence, have developed robust service packages to identify and disseminate reports
highlighting this content which is vital to conducting trends analysis and maintaining situational awareness of potential changes in the threat environment for I&A.

Awarded contract 70RDAD21P00000074 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2021-09-30.
