## Description

THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. This RFI supports the Department’s efforts to procure a data repository with a customized Department of Homeland Security (DHS) storefront to allow DHS to post releasable scientific digital data from peer-reviewed publications resulting from DHS-funded research. (See Attached Draft Statement of Work (SOW)).

The scope of this effort will be to maintain, curate, and build a data repository with a customized DHS Storefront to allow DHS to post releasable scientific digital data from peer-reviewed publications resulting from DHS-funded research. The contractor shall not handle, or compile classified or sensitive data nor personally identifiable information (PII).

The contractor shall utilize their existing data publishing platform and storage capabilities (e.g., software development is not expected) to allow DHS to store, share, and manage their research outputs, and also create a service that gives DHS programmatic access (i.e., an open-source application programming interface (API)) to individual data sets.

The data repository will allow DHS users (and publishers acting on behalf of these users) to deposit data sets into the repository which, after the necessary processing and the expiration of any applicable embargoes, will be made publicly available. DHS Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate Office of Enterprise Services (OES) Knowledge Management Office (KMO) seeks services for its DHS S&T customers. Refer to the draft SOW for specific details.
