August Schell Secures Five-Year Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) from the U.S. Treasury for Chainalysis

Rockville, MD - June 22, 2023 

August Schell, a provider of cybersecurity solutions and engineering services, has secured a five-year Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) from the U.S. Treasury for Chainalysis to accelerate the agency’s investigation of risks associated with digital assets. 

Chainalysis offers the world’s most comprehensive and reliable blockchain mapping of on-chain data to real-world entities. 

 “The expertise of the August Schell team in helping us secure a five year Blanket Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Government — and specifically the Department of the Treasury — will mean that those who need our tools the most will be able to utilize them in a more timely and efficient manner while lowering procurement cycles. Everyday, experts across the federal government use Chainalysis to take down illicit actors and make the future of finance safer and more secure. We’re grateful for the August Schell team for helping demonstrate this need to those who matter.” - Chris Manouse, VP of Public Sector, Chainalysis 

 During the five-year period of performance agency investigators and analysts will have access to all historical transaction data stored on a variety of blockchains to aid their analysis. With Chainalysis' unique visualization and discovery toolkit, users can identify linkages between seemingly unrelated transactions, pivot between disparate tokens and chains, and ultimately uncover how criminals and adversaries use and misuse blockchain systems.   

 “This BPA provides easy access for the Treasury Department to procure the Chainalysis product line through our NASA SEWP contract. Cryptocurrencies and other blockchain based assets have become a huge market and having access to cutting edge technology such as the Chainalysis Blockchain Data Platform will help organizations such as the Treasury Department navigate this emerging market.”- Michael Thorp, VP of Sales, August Schell
