Notice description
This is a Request for Information (RFI) for the Automated Classification Management Environment (ACME). The Government requires an automated/Artificial Intelligence (AI)-assisted classification capability to support Joint All Domain Command and Control (JADC2) operations. The current manual classification infrastructure hinders the ability of the Department of War (DoW) to share data at speeds relevant to the end user. The ACME program will manage the end-to-end lifecycle of Executive Order (EO) 13526, 32 CFR Part 2001, associated DoW policy, and any digital classification/declassification guidance. The Government is seeking information from potential vendors who can demonstrate the technical maturity and core competencies required to solve the challenges for the ACME/Battering Ram effort, which are further elaborated in the attached RFI document. The Government welcomes responses from vendors outside the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) for potential solutions existing outside the DoW. Also attached is a Vendor Q&A, please include with your RFI response.
