    Description

    The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Army, is seeking industry input through a Request for Information (RFI) for the development of the Geospatial-Intelligence Workstation-Tactical (GWS-T). This initiative aims to gather insights on advanced computing capabilities and ruggedized hardware that can support tactical operations in dynamic and austere environments, focusing on specifications for both the GWS-T Workstation and Edge Node systems. The GWS-T is critical for enhancing the Army's tactical decision-making capabilities and maintaining an operational edge in large-scale combat operations. Interested manufacturers are encouraged to submit their responses in a controlled unclassified format by May 30, 2025, and may engage in further discussions at Aberdeen Proving Ground. For inquiries, contact Michael Ross at michael.j.ross4.civ@army.mil or Carlos Garza at carlos.h.garza.ctr@army.mil.

    The Geospatial-Intelligence Workstation-Tactical (GWS-T) Request for Information (RFI) outlines the U.S. Army's intent to gather market research and industry insights for developing a mobile geospatial workstation capable of supporting tactical operations in dynamic environments. This RFI emphasizes the need for advanced computing capabilities and ruggedized hardware that can operate in various austere conditions while providing real-time geospatial intelligence and situational awareness. The document specifies requirements for both the GWS-T Workstation and Edge Node, focusing on ruggedization, physical configuration, display, power, CPU, memory, storage, networking, and security specifications. The Army seeks submissions from manufacturers, requiring detailed responses on how proposed solutions meet these criteria. While this RFI is not a solicitation for proposals, it solicits industry feedback to shape future procurement strategies aligned with Army modernization goals. Responses should be submitted in a controlled unclassified format by May 30, 2025, and may lead to further discussions at Aberdeen Proving Ground. Overall, the initiative supports the Army’s objective to enhance tactical decision-making capabilities and maintain an operational edge in large-scale combat operations.
