Quick Summary

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is conducting a Market Survey to identify industry capabilities for a Tactical Intelligence Platform for International Travel. This is not a solicitation but seeks to understand vendor strategies and methodologies for providing international travel security information and risk management to FAA employees. The response deadline is May 15, 2026.

Scope of Work

The FAA's Office of Investigations & Professional Responsibility (AXI-1) International Travel Security Program (ITSP) aims to protect FAA employees traveling internationally by providing timely intelligence on dangers and risks. The required platform should support this mission by:

  • Providing current location-based intelligence reports and risk ratings (security, political, environmental, health).
  • Offering features for tracking international travelers, real-time alerts, and risk analysis.
  • Generating metrics reports (e.g., traveler locations, alert impacts, mobile app usage).
  • Supporting a 24/7 emergency hotline and critical alert processes.
  • Defining platform hierarchy for end-users and help ticket turnaround times.

Respondents must demonstrate their organization's strategy, capability, and methodology, addressing these baseline requirements. Past performance examples within the last three years, comparable in scope (e.g., 10,000-12,000 trips annually, 3,000-4,000 international travelers), are also required.
