Data Management and Research Sharing Plan Development

The contract seeks the design and implementation of a secure, compliant data management plan tailored for biomedical research, with a strong emphasis on preserving data integrity, adhering to FAIR principles—findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable—and meeting federal requirements for data sharing. The plan must ensure that all research data is handled in a manner that supports long-term preservation, ethical use, and regulatory compliance, particularly under Department of Defense standards. The subcontractor will be responsible for developing structured policies and technical workflows that align with evolving federal mandates, enabling seamless data sharing while maintaining rigorous security protocols to protect sensitive biomedical information. The initiative is managed by the Department of the Army through USAMRAA under the broader Department of Defense, with the NAICS code 518210 indicating its focus on data processing and hosting services. The opportunity is open as a subcontract, with responses due by November 4, 2026. While the physical place of performance and point of contact are not specified, the work must be executed to meet federal compliance timelines and deliverables without reliance on proprietary or non-standard frameworks. The goal is to establish a scalable, audit-ready data infrastructure that supports ongoing and future biomedical research initiatives under federal oversight.
