Data Management and Secure Cloud Storage for Proteomic Datasets

The contract encompasses secure storage, metadata management, and robust access control for large-scale proteomic datasets generated as part of a research initiative sponsored by the National Institutes of Health under the Department of Health and Human Services. The scope requires a cloud-based infrastructure capable of handling high-volume, complex biological data while ensuring compliance with stringent data security and privacy standards. Comprehensive metadata tagging and organization are essential to enable efficient data discovery, re-use, and integration with other research outputs, supporting the long-term usability of the proteomic data generated during the study. All data handling must adhere to controlled access protocols that authenticate and authorize users based on role and project need, with audit trails maintained to track all data interactions. The performance location is specified as Rockville, and the subcontract is targeted toward entities with expertise in biomedical data infrastructure, specifically those aligned with NAICS code 518210. Responses are due by May 13, 2026, and the solicitation remains open for qualified contractors to propose scalable, secure, and compliant solutions for managing critical proteomic data assets.
