The Department of the Treasury, through its National Office - IRS DO/IT Branch, has issued a Sources Sought Notice (Procurement Identifier: 2032L226N00002) to gather information from industry regarding the potential establishment of a department-wide Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for a FedRAMP-authorized, cloud-based FOIA/eDiscovery platform. This market research effort, conducted in accordance with FAR Part 10, is intended to inform acquisition planning and does not constitute a formal solicitation or commitment to procure.
Purpose and Scope:
The Treasury is seeking to unify and modernize its approach to managing Electronically Stored Information (ESI) generated across its more than 100,000 personnel and 50+ bureaus, including the IRS, Fiscal Service, BEP, U.S. Mint, OCC, FinCEN, TTB, TIGTA, and OIG. The department’s ESI—comprising emails, documents, chat records, multimedia, and structured data—is routinely subject to FOIA requests, litigation discovery, congressional inquiries, and oversight investigations. Currently, disparate tools and procurement methods have led to fragmented processes, duplicative investments, and inconsistent compliance with federal records management, cybersecurity, and accessibility mandates.
The envisioned BPA aims to provide a unified, enterprise-grade platform that supports the full lifecycle of FOIA and eDiscovery activities: intake, processing, review, redaction, production, and archival. The solution must be cloud-based and FedRAMP-authorized, ensuring robust security and compliance with FISMA, Section 508, and Treasury-specific cybersecurity directives. The Treasury is particularly interested in leveraging advanced commercial capabilities such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced analytics to enhance transparency, reduce backlogs, and improve operational efficiency across all bureaus.
Key Requirements and Objectives:
- Department-wide, cloud-based platform for FOIA and eDiscovery management
- FedRAMP authorization and compliance with FISMA, Section 508, and Treasury cybersecurity policies
- Support for the entire ESI lifecycle: intake, processing, review, redaction, production, and archival
- Integration of modern technologies (AI, machine learning, analytics) to streamline operations and ensure legal compliance
- Scalability to serve over 100,000 personnel and 50+ bureaus
- Consistent, secure, and legally compliant management of ESI in response to FOIA, litigation, and oversight needs
