Sources Sought AI Software for Architectural Design and Management

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service Region 5 is conducting a Sources Sought Request for Information (RFI) to identify AI software solutions for architectural design and management. The agency seeks comprehensive AI capabilities across six key areas: design automation, space and furniture layout optimization, analysis tools, cost and schedule estimation, visualization and rendering, and post-occupancy monitoring. Vendors must demonstrate AI tools capable of generating design requirements, optimizing space configurations, automating code compliance checks, predicting maintenance needs, creating 3D models, and analyzing building performance. The GSA will evaluate submissions based on functionality, compliance with federal standards, cost-effectiveness, technical support quality, and vendor experience with architectural projects. Interested vendors must submit detailed capabilities packages by July 14, 2025, via email to Neal Deodhar, including product descriptions, pricing structures, AI-specific requirements, data ownership policies, FedRAMP compliance status, implementation details, security features, and relevant case studies.

This opportunity does not include any set-aside designations and is open to all qualified vendors under NAICS code 541511 for Custom Computer Programming Services. The RFI does not identify any incumbent contractors or current service providers for these AI architectural design capabilities. No specific award values, budget ranges, or contract quantities are disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, as this represents a market research phase to inform potential future procurement activities. The GSA emphasizes that this is strictly an information-gathering effort for planning purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or contract commitment. The agency will use the collected vendor information to conduct market research and potentially develop a future Request for Proposal (RFP) for AI software solutions in the architectural design and management domain.
