The Defense Information Systems Agency said in the RFI issued November 4 that it was “conducting market research to ensure better understanding of the capabilities available in the market place relevant to a Blockchain.” 

The RFI continued that “the scope of this document is to determine industry products available that provide a solution stack to enable DISA to provide a scalable permissioned Blockchain as a service offering which can be run on a mainframe environment.”

The document continues with more information about the potential to incorporate blockchain in the US government agency.
