Question 2

What is Science and Technology (S&T) looking for?

Accepted Answer

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) issued a Sources Sought / Request for Information (RFI) (70RSAT26RFI000022) seeking fixed‑wing aircraft charter services to support testing and aerial deployment of a prototype large‑capacity flotation device for Mass Rescue Operations (MRO) at sea.

Question 3

How do I find RFPs before my competitors?

Accepted Answer

Starbridge centralizes thousands of state, local, education, and university bid portals into one AI-powered feed. We monitor 24/7 and alert you the moment an RFP drops, so you're always first to know. Plus, we track early buying signals—like contract expirations and meeting minutes—months before RFPs are released.

Question 4

Should I wait for the RFP to be released?

Accepted Answer

No. If you're not already part of the RFP writing process, you're already behind.
