NGA Releases Draft Solicitation for Potential $400M GEOAxIS IT Contract

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency has issued a draft solicitation for a potential 10-year, $400M contract to provide identity, credential and access management support services for the Intelligence Community and the Department of Defense, Bloomberg Government reported Wednesday.

NGA plans a single-award, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for the geospatial-intelligence access and information sharing next program with a base term of two years and three months, eight option years and another option for a six-month extension.

The GEOAxIS program’s requirements include the delivery of critical cybersecurity elements in support of efforts to protect and defend mission data, improved access to geospatial datasets and intelligence reports and a single sign-on experience through public key infrastructure-based authentication services and alternative platforms.

Work is expected to run through June 30, 2030, and be carried out at contractor and government facilities in Washington, D.C. and St. Louis and other sites within the U.S. and abroad.

NGA will accept questions on the draft request for proposals through June 29.
