  • Status Closes in 28 days
  • Amount Amount not listed
  • Set-aside None (open competition)

Scope

The Iowa Department of Management (DOM), on behalf of the Iowa Department of Public Safety (DPS), is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to research available Digital Evidence Management System (DEMS) platforms and implementation approaches.

DPS seeks solutions capable of supporting centralized digital evidence intake, storage, management, sharing, retention, legal hold, immutable audit trails, and chain-of-custody controls across the agency.

DPS is researching a centralized DEMS to standardize metadata and hashing practices, streamline evidentiary and records-retention workflows, and build a unified, agency-wide platform that supports consistent, efficient evidence handling as the agency continues to grow.

Responses to this RFI will inform DPS's market analysis, technical and security due diligence, integration planning, rough order-of-magnitude cost and level-of-effort estimates and planning for a future procurement.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

  1. Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
  2. Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
  3. This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
  4. Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
