Resilient Analytic Platforms for Intelligence Delivery (RAPID)

The Resilient Analytic Platforms for Intelligence Delivery (RAPID) Advanced Research Announcement (ARA) seeks innovative white papers for the research, development, integration, test, and evaluation of advanced technologies and techniques to provide segments of the Intelligence Community (IC) and Armed Forces with information sharing capabilities and common operating tools, and a cyber-secure environment for intelligence operations. The goal is to establish a robust foundation for planning, decision-making, and action by delivering tailored, customer-specific intelligence, analytic capabilities, and solutions. The RAPID ARA focuses on novel cloud-based tools, automating processing workflows, standards development, and enterprise integration of existing intelligence capabilities into consolidated, cyber-resilient dashboards and analysis platforms. Key areas of interest include: • Multi-INT Fusion and Latency Reduction • GEOINT-derived information correlation • Multi-INT Data Management • Secure System Integration & Interoperability • Proactive Security and Vulnerability Management • Assured and Resilient Cloud Computing • Secure Edge Computing for Disadvantaged Users • Data Models and Ontologies, and Synthetic Data Generation • Benchmarking and Validation • Organizational Compliance and Security Governance The RAPID ARA is a two-step open advanced research announcement, with the first step soliciting white papers and the second step inviting selected offerors to submit a technical and cost proposal.
