The Defense Logistics Agency is researching an enterprise geospatial information system, or eGIS that would integrate data from multiple sources and non-geospatial information, display the information and provide situational awareness/ and reporting. 

DLA envisions the eGIS providing up to date information to up to 500 users while assisting in several decision making processes, including:

  • Managing infrastructure and property
  • Planning for contingency operations
  • Tracking logistics routing
  • Supporting disaster response
  • Strengthening emergency services capabilities

Responses to the request for information are due by Aug. 26.  Responders must be prepared to provide a live demonstration.
