Anticipated Release Date: TBA
The future of modular AI integration is here, and we’re seeking cutting-edge solutions to revolutionize how government and industry harness the power of artificial intelligence. The Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) Digital OnRamp is a best-in-class AI/LLM platform that will be the front door for Private Sector and Government users to rapidly identify relevant opportunities and accelerate pathways for engagement and acquisition.
DIU is excited to announce an upcoming Request for Solutions (RFS) through the Training and Readiness Accelerator II (TReX II) consortium for modular AI/LLM tools and data services that can be easily integrated with the Digital OnRamp using secure Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to provide relevant responses from government and private sector data sources. The Digital OnRamp platform is designed to enable modular integration of multiple AI/LLM Tools and services using APIs – creating a powerful ecosystem for discovery, insights, and engagement.
Key Features Desired:
- General Purpose Tools: Self-Deployable AI/LLM (RAG/Graph-RAG) tools that can ingest and tune specified data sources (databases, documents, websites, etc.) to enable new discovery pathways
- Existing Tools: AI/LLM tools that are tuned to specific use cases, information domains, or aggregations that are maintained/updated
- API-Driven Integration: AI/LLM tools and services that can be seamlessly and securely integrated with the Digital OnRamp
- Relevant Data Sources / Perspectives: Must produce relevant and traceable responses to orchestrated queries
- Industry-Specific Insights: Tailor AI responses to unique government and industry perspectives and user personas
- Orchestrated Intelligence: Coordinate with the Digital OnRamp Platform Manager to ensure AI/LLM tool services provide comprehensive answers to complex queries
Benefits Desired:
- Government Hosted Deployments: AI/LLM Tools and Data Sources that are compliant with DOD Cyber and Responsible AI (RAI) Guidance
- Modular / Decoupled Deployments: Configurable pub/sub architecture that is adaptable for government purposes
- Open and/or Open Source: Platform, Models, and Weights
- Continuous Monitoring: Model Performance, Engagement Tracking, and Reporting
- Secure Operational Deployments: Confidential Computing (CPU/GPU)
- Enhanced Efficiency: Streamline private sector and government engagements, operations, and service delivery
- Cost Reduction: Optimize cost of delivery to be aligned to the demand/usage
- Data-Driven Decision Making: Empower decision makers with AI-powered insights and strategies for enhancing services
- Scalability: Easily adapt and expand AI capabilities as needs evolve capabilities
Who Should Apply:
We’re seeking innovative companies and organizations with expertise in:
- Providing AI/LLM tool and services
- Integration and management of AI/LLM tools and services via secure APIs
- Multi-agentic AI/LLM tools that offer security and privacy for data and user/organization identity
- Government and industry-specific data analysis and perspectives
- Secure and scalable cloud infrastructure
- Portable and customizable capabilities for enhanced service delivery (Gov Cloud IL2/4/5)
We are advancing AI Integration
The DIU Digital OnRamp represents the next evolution in artificial intelligence deployments using orchestrated services. We are flexible, scalable solution(s) that can be easily integrated and adapted to the unique needs of government agencies and industries seeking to do business with government using natural language queries to provide actionable results with pathways for engagement. This is the future we’re building, and we want you to be a part of it. Don’t miss this opportunity to shape the future of AI integration in government and industry. The RFS announcement will be published to the TReX II consortium membership and SAM.gov.
Responding to this opportunity requires membership in the TReX II Consortium. This Consortium releases numerous solicitations throughout the year, so even if this opportunity may not end up being right for you, we strongly encourage you to join, so you are ready for the next opportunity.
