    80TECH25RFI0002 - Remote Proofing Solutions.pdf
    NASA's Information Technology Procurement Office (ITPO) issued a Request for Information (RFI) to gather insights on Remote Proofing Solutions for the Johnson Space Center. The goal is to identify solutions that can integrate into NASA's identity onboarding processes, providing an Identity Assurance Level (IAL) 3 enrollment option for remote workers unable to access in-person facilities. The RFI encourages responses from all interested vendors, particularly those from small businesses and historically underserved communities, to assess competition levels and subcontracting opportunities. NASA seeks cost-effective solutions and support options (like help desk assistance) for remote identity proofing. A potential proof of concept lasting 90 days may also be conducted to evaluate integration of third-party solutions. Vendor responses should include business information, capabilities, and details on whether their offerings are commercial products. The submission deadline is November 15, 2024, with all responses to be sent electronically. This RFI is an essential step in expanding NASA's remote identity proofing capabilities while adhering to federal guidance.
