The Federal Highway Administration requires contractor support to deliver the National Performance Management Research Data Set alongside technical and data-sharing support services. The scope entails obtaining probe vehicle data from multiple providers across three vehicle types, applying geospatial conflation expertise, providing persistent data storage and access, computing travel time reliability measures, and disseminating data through an online platform. Contractors must also supply technical support via email or web conferencing. This unrestricted procurement is limited to onshore United States organizations and will result in a firm-fixed-price award for offsite performance. Quoters must submit technical questions and Phase 1 technical submissions by 2:00 PM Eastern Time on November 12, 2026, followed by Phase 2 technical submissions and price quotations by 2:00 PM Eastern Time on November 24, 2026.
