REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI)

INTRODUCTION: THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION. This RFI is issued for information and planning purposes only, do not submit a proposal. There is no obligation for the Government to acquire any products or services described in this RFI. No funds have been authorized, appropriated, or received for this effort. The information provided may be used by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in developing its acquisition strategy and Performance Work Statement (PWS). Interested parties are responsible for adequately marking proprietary, restricted or competition sensitive information contained in their response. The Government does not intend to pay for the information submitted in response to this RFI. If you can complete this as a small or SDVOSB set aside please indicate you can.

BACKGROUND

The Office of Research and Development (ORD) manages research activities supported by multiple administrative data systems, including OneStream, VAIRRS, RAFT, and ePromise. These systems contain critical financial, compliance, portfolio, and scientific data, but each maintains its own data structures, definitions, and metadata. This fragmentation results in inconsistent reporting, manual reconciliation efforts, and limited visibility across the research lifecycle. To improve data quality, streamline operations, and enable unified analytics, ORD requires an integrated solution that consolidates data from these sources into one data platform. The envisioned data unification solution will establish automated data integrations, create a harmonized enterprise data model, and provide standardized data validation workflows, dashboards, and secure access mechanisms to support research administration, financial oversight, and scientific reporting.
