## Description

Request for Information Request for information Page 1 of 2 DESCRIPTION Request for Information Synopsis Mission-Oriented Services for Application Integration and Capabilities (MOSAIC) Enterprise Data Products, API Delivery, Data Access and Sharing 1.0 RFI Synopsis Narrative Background and Purpose The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of Information & Technology (OIT), is conducting market research to inform a planned future acquisition known as Mission-Oriented Services for Application Integration and Capabilities (MOSAIC). MOSAIC is focused on positioning VA s authoritative data as a trustworthy, well-structured enterprise asset that can be reliably consumed in whatever form the mission requires. VA seeks to continuously improve this data so that it can be relied upon as genuinely authoritative and to make that same data available through the full range of access patterns the mission requires: real-time transactional APIs, bulk and analytical access suitable for data-lake and large-scale workloads, event-driven and streaming exchange, and the governed, well-described, AI-ready data products that models, agents, and automated features increasingly require. A single data domain today may be served reliably through one interface yet remain difficult to access in another or exposed broadly while portions of its underlying content are known to be incomplete or unreliable. The VA intends for MOSAIC to close these gaps so that the same trusted data can be accessed, reused, and acted upon across many mission and technology use cases. VA is using this RFI to better understand how this mission should evolve over the next five to ten years and what technical, operating, and acquisition decisions made today would best position VA for that future. VA currently supports mission data and integration products that may form part of the initial MOSAIC baseline, including VA Profile, VADIR, HDR, existing API products, and related integration capabilities. The final inventory, transition boundaries, and allocation of work among MOSAIC, VA organizations, and other enterprise contracts have not been determined. MOSAIC will also operate in an environment that depends on enterprise data platforms, catalogs, identity services, infrastructure, security capabilities, and other agency- or vendor-managed services. VA does not want this market research to assume that today's API, integration, architecture, delivery, or operating models should simply be carried forward. VA is specifically seeking industry's perspective on how AI agents, real-time data access, event-driven architecture, interoperability standards, reusable data products, automation, and other emerging technologies may change the way VA exposes, exchanges, governs, and operates mission data. VA also wants industry to identify capabilities, architecture patterns, tools, and operating practices that should be reduced, retired, consolidated, or replaced as the ecosystem evolves. This RFI is intended to inform the MOSAIC Performance Work Statement (PWS), technical and operating model, transition approach, performance framework, commercial structure, acquisition strategy, and source-selection design. VA has not made final decisions regarding the future-state architecture, delivery model, single- versus multiple-award structure, contract type, ordering approach, period of performance, ceiling, pricing model, or final technical evaluation factors. Industry is encouraged to challenge VA's current assumptions and recommend alternatives supported by demonstrated operational, technical, and commercial experience. Areas for Industry Perspective VA is seeking forward-looking industry perspective on the following areas rather than validation of a predetermined solution: The future state VA should pursue over the next five to ten years for positioning its authoritative data as a trustworthy, well-structured, multi-modal enterprise asset, including the capabilities and architectural principles that should define that target state. How AI agents, event-driven and real-time data patterns, interoperability standards, data products, automation, and emerging technologies may change the role of traditional APIs, point-to-point integrations, middleware, and manual integration services. Which current capabilities, technical patterns, tools, and operating practices VA should plan to eliminate, consolidate, or replace over the next five years, and what should replace them. The relative advantages of a traditional managed-services model versus a platform-first operating model built around standardized, reusable capabilities, self-service, automation, common engineering patterns, and measurable product or mission outcomes. How VA should sustain mission-critical services during modernization while improving availability, recovery, resilience, observability, security, maintainability, and interoperability. How VA can scale to future enterprise demand without relying primarily on open-ended labor or team augmentation, including ways to classify complexity, size work, and introduce new in-scope capabilities consistently. How commercial and performance models should evolve as automation increases, including how VA should measure value, validate productivity and cost reductions, and avoid incentives that reward activity or consumption rather than outcomes. How VA should preserve portability, Government access to technical assets and data, and the ability to transition products and services without dependence on proprietary contractor-controlled tooling. Current Environment and Working Assumptions For purposes of responding to this RFI, respondents may assume that MOSAIC could include some combination of continuous data-quality assessment and improvement, multi-modal data access and delivery (transactional, bulk/analytical, event-driven, and AI-ready data products), data sharing and integration, sustainment and operational support, modernization, data landscape assessment and
