How to respond to DCSA’s Personnel Vetting Fieldwork Services RFI
What DCSA is seeking
The Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency is seeking feedback from interested and capable businesses about its Personnel Vetting Fieldwork Services requirement. This is a request for information, not a request for bids.
The notice includes a draft performance work statement, draft acquisition strategy, ordering guide, workload frameworks, technical exhibits, and questions for industry. Vendors can use these materials to understand the requirement and provide input.
Deadline and what it means
The RFI was published October 27, 2026. Responses are due November 4, 2026, at 5:00 PM Eastern Time.
This deadline is for submitting feedback to the RFI, not a bid to perform the work. The notice states that the 10-page limit excludes the cover page and Question and Answer template.
Who this opportunity may suit
This RFI is relevant to professional-services businesses interested in Personnel Vetting Fieldwork Services and capable of reviewing the draft materials and offering informed feedback.
Because this is market research, a business does not need to treat the notice as a request to submit a price or compete for an award.

Prepare useful, focused feedback
