About this opportunity
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Office of Law Enforcement has published a Notice of Intent to Sole Source Award indicating its intention to award a firm fixed price contract to TransUnion Risk and Alternative Data Solutions, Inc. This special notice, posted on December 16, 2025, is not a competitive solicitation but rather a notification of the agency's plan to establish a sole source relationship for a specific service. The contract will be awarded under Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 13.106-1(b) for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold of $250,000. TransUnion, located in Boca Raton, Florida, is classified under NAICS code 513210 (Software Publishers) and will provide services in the Platform as a Service category. This notice allows interested parties to submit evidence of their capability to compete for the requirement before the sole source award is finalized.
The objective of this sole source contract is to secure continued access to TransUnion's proprietary TLOxp platform, a web-based investigative intelligence tool that provides the FWS Office of Law Enforcement with comprehensive data on individuals, identities, contact information, relationships, physical assets, and social media footprints. The USFWS Office of Law Enforcement has relied on the TLOxp platform and its exclusive TruLookup investigative solutions suite for years to conduct investigations and develop leads, and this contract will modernize the procurement approach while maintaining access to this critical tool. The deadline for submission of statements of capabilities is December 31, 2025. Any interested party may submit written evidence demonstrating that competition for this requirement would be advantageous to the government, though TransUnion holds exclusive distribution and reseller rights to both the TLOxp platform and the TruLookup suite, making alternative vendors unlikely to qualify. Eligibility to compete hinges on possessing equivalent investigative intelligence capabilities or proprietary platforms offering comparable functionality to the TruLookup suite.
