The Statement of Work outlines NASA's procurement for access to comprehensive data on domestic and international businesses to support due diligence functions mandated by Congress. This data, required to protect national security, is necessary for evaluating proposals submitted to the Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Technology Transfer program. NASA seeks data through user interfaces, secure file transfer protocols, and application programming interfaces to investigate relationships between proposing firms and foreign entities, particularly those in countries of concern as defined by the Department of State. Key areas of inquiry include the affiliations of applicants with foreign talent programs, financial obligations to foreign entities, ownership structures, and past technology transfers. The performance will take place at NASA Ames Research Center, with an anticipated period of one year starting in March 2025. This procurement addresses the need for thorough verification of disclosures to assess potential risks associated with funding small businesses and ensuring national security.
