  1. Thank you for bringing this opportunity to our attention! The needs outlined in this RFI strongly align with ORI’s capabilities and past performance, and we would be very interested in bidding on this as either prime or sub. ORI is a WOSB that has been recognized for more than 35 years of successful delivery of data collection, analysis, reporting, data science, and visualization solutions, as well as research design and implementation. ORI partners with strategic technologies and service providers to empower its federal and commercial clients with transformational data quality, data management, data access, data analytics and AI/ML, reporting, and data optimization solutions to help customers securely modernize data operations, increase productivity, reduce time to insight, and maximize analytical impact and actionability. We currently hold contracts in support of DoD’s Advana Platform (visualizations and reporting), DMDC, CBP, KCNSC, and more. We offer our customers industry-leading technologies and services while enabling them to meet their set-aside goals and, as a small business, to utilize simplified acquisition procedures for contracts between $10,000 – $250,000.

  2. Many of the requirements detailed in this RFI strongly correlate with nVirtua’s capabilities and past performance. Therefore, we would be very interested in teaming to bid, and are certainly open to serving as a subcontractor for this project.

    nVirtua is a Small Disadvantaged Business providing Data Transformation as a Service (“dTaaS™”). While, on one hand, dTaaS encompasses how we specialize in giving clients access to their data when, how, and wherever they need it – which includes managing all types of data, both structured and unstructured, building custom connections or applications, or pushing data to client-selected endpoints as necessary.

    On the other hand, dTaaS is also the foundation of the nVirtua business strategy and data-centric philosophy for architecting solutions that solve real-world challenges.
