NGA Seeks Industry Input on Software Requirements Workflow Sustainment and Modernization

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) issued a request for information on November 12 seeking industry input for the continued sustainment and future development of its Software Requirements Workflow (SRW) platform. Responses are due by 6:00 p.m. Central on December 11, 2026. This is a market-research notice, not a contract award or a stated request for proposals. Companies can use their responses to explain relevant experience and help inform NGA’s planning for future SRW requirements and acquisition approaches.

SRW supports NGA software procurement management, software request fulfillment, workflow automation, and related data management activities. The enterprise solution is based on Flexera commercial off-the-shelf technologies, including Flexera App Portal, Flexera Workflow Manager, and associated workflow procurement interfaces. The RFI describes a broad potential scope: sustainment, enhancement, integration, operations, maintenance, testing, Agile development, systems engineering, modernization, roadmap support, and continued operational support. Respondents should therefore explain not only how they would introduce improvements, but also how they would maintain and operate the existing platform.

NGA is also exploring future modernization and the incorporation of government-approved SI-enabled functionality to improve workflow efficiency, user experience, automation assistance, decision support, and operational responsiveness. Potential capabilities identified in the notice include intelligent automation assistance, chatbots or virtual assistants, guided user interaction, automated routing recommendations, and support for artifacts and documents. These examples describe areas of interest; the RFI does not establish that any particular feature—or AI-enabled functionality generally—is a mandatory requirement. Vendors should distinguish existing, demonstrable capabilities from proposed or future features and explain how their approaches would fit NGA’s approval and operational context.

For industry, the RFI is an opportunity to provide market information before NGA defines a future requirement. The agency seeks details on current capabilities, commercial practices, available technologies, contract structures, and pricing approaches that could support SRW sustainment, enhancement, modernization, SI enablement, roadmap planning, and operations. Interested firms should review the notice on SAM.gov, address the full lifecycle scope, and submit information before the deadline. Companies with relevant platform or workflow expertise can use the response to describe delivery models, support assumptions, integration considerations, and pricing factors; the notice itself does not confirm a solicitation, funding level, or award timeline.

• Agency: National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA).
• Opportunity type: Request for information (RFI) for market research, not a contract award or RFP.
• Response deadline: December 11, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. Central.
• Platform: SRW supports software procurement management, request fulfillment, workflow automation, and related data management.
• Technology baseline: Flexera COTS products include Flexera App Portal and Flexera Workflow Manager, plus associated workflow procurement interfaces.
• Potential scope: Sustainment, enhancement, integration, operations, maintenance, testing, Agile development, systems engineering, modernization, and roadmap support.
• Market information requested: Vendor capabilities, commercial practices, technologies, contract structures, and pricing approaches.
• Potential feature areas: Government-approved SI-enabled intelligent assistance, chatbots or virtual assistants, guided interaction, routing recommendations, and artifact or document support.
• Action for interested firms: Review the notice on SAM.gov and submit capability and market information by the deadline, covering both operations and modernization.
• Requirement caveat: AI-enabled features are described as potential capabilities; the RFI does not make them mandatory.
