Scope
The NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) is conducting pre-competitive market research to gather input on potential solutions to support the upcoming acquisition for the Geospatial Enterprise Core Services (GECS) capability program.
To that end, NCIA is issuing the attached Request for Information (RFI) and holding a dedicated workshop at NATO Edge to solicit feedback from capable and interested industry partners.
RFI-192830-GECS is issued for planning purposes only and is not a request for bids.
It is part of NCIA’s effort to engage early to inform and ensure it has a clear understanding of the marketplace, available capabilities, and potential acquisition strategies.
NCIA values your insight and invites you to view and comment on its draft high level problem statement with a view to providing recommendations for improving performance outcomes, competition, and efficiency; and identifying any risks or concerns that should be considered during planning.
Feedback can be provided in writing in accordance with submission instructions and/or by attending a dedicated industry engagement – Geospatial Enterprise Core Services Workshop at NATO Edge, taking place on 17-19 November in Izmir (Türkiye), where NCIA will respond to clarifying questions and invite comments from participants.
During the workshop, NCIA will brief the high-level problem statement and outcome/performance-based requirements (Annex B), respond to clarifying questions and invite comments from participants, based on the questions shared (Annex B) in the open forum as well as in bilateral meetings (schedule allowing).

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.
- Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
- 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.
- This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
- 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.
