PART II – STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) charters, regulates, and supervises all national banks and federal savings associations, as well as the federal branches and agencies of foreign banks. Headquartered in Washington, DC, the OCC is responsible for promoting and assuring the safety and soundness of the country’s system of national banks and federal savings associations and maintaining its competitiveness, efficiency, integrity, and stability in the financial marketplace.
The OCC relies on anonymized consumer credit bureau data to conduct research on policy-related work. The agency is committed to protecting data confidentiality. Only aggregate results (e.g. regression coefficient, tabular, or graphical summaries of data that do not reveal information about individual records) will be published or shared with any outside entities.
The OCC intends to purchase data with limited rights in perpetuity. The OCC intends to be licensed to use data internally, and publish or share only aggregate results externally.
2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The “Credit Bureau Database” consists of all records in the Contractor’s nationwide consumer credit database that were archived at the end of a month, whether or not the records had tradelines, and whether or not they were scoreable.[footnoteRef:1] [1: A “record” or “credit record” is considered the same as a “case” or “file”. The terms refer to data at the level of the “subject,” or individual.]
“List-Based Credit Bureau Data” refers to any file containing consumer records obtained from the Contractor's nationwide Credit Bureau Database and the consumers’ FICO credit scores (if any) as of the same date.[footnoteRef:2] [2: The FICO credit score shall be a base FICO 04 credit score (i.e., Equifax Beacon 5.0, Experian FICO Score v3, or TransUnion FICO Score 04). For records that are not FICO-scoreable, the Contractor will supply an indicator specifying this fact, and an optional indicator explaining why (e.g., the consumer’s credit record may be too new, too stale, and/or too thin to be scoreable).]
To enable the Contractor to construct such files, a third party has agreed to supply the Contractor with one or more lists of specific consumers as of each specified archive date. The third party will supply to the Contractor: personally identifiable information (PII) that is sufficient to identify each consumer’s credit record and a non-informative ID number (NID). The Contractor may need to sign a nondisclosure agreement to be provided by the third party prior to release of the information.
The Contractor shall create an internal file containing, for each listed consumer: the PII, the NID, the consumer’s credit record data, (or an indicator specifying that the consumer had no record in the Contractor’s files as of that date), and the FICO credit score (or an indicator specifying that the record was unscoreable, and an optional reason why). The Contractor shall include the complete data from the credit record of each listed consumer, whether or not the record had tradelines and whether or not the record was scoreable.
The Contractor shall produce a file of anonymized data by making a copy of its internal file and removing the PII. The Contractor shall deliver the resulting file of anonymized data to the OCC. The OCC will publish or share with outside entities only aggregate results (e.g. regression coefficient, tabular, or graphical summaries of data that do not reveal information about individual records).
The OCC intends to purchase Core Data files, described in Part II, Sections 2.1 and 2.2 below.
The OCC may additionally decide to purchase one or more Optional Data files, described in Part II, Section 2.3 below. Data files that the OCC actually purchases are referred to collectively as “List-Based Credit Bureau Data.” The OCC may additionally decide to purchase an Optional Data Service, described in Part II, Section 2.4 below.
2.1 CORE DATA
The “Core Data” refers to three files of consumer credit bureau records, consisting of one Initial file, and two Follow-up files.
· The “Initial” file contains credit bureau data and FICO scores for approximately 250,000 specified consumer credit records as of September 30, 2016.
· Each “Follow-up” file contains credit bureau data and FICO scores for approximately 8,000 specified consumer credit files for a month-end archive date that will be specified by the OCC. These two archive dates are expected to occur between January 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017 inclusive. Two likely archive dates are January 31, 2017 and April 30, 2017.
Relationship among List-Based Credit Bureau Files. The list of consumers in any Follow-up file is expected to be largely (or entirely) a subset of the list of consumers in the Initial file. All Follow-up files of the same size (whether Core or Optional) are expected to be comprised largely (or entirely) of the same consumers.
2.2 CORE DATA: RECORD AND TRADELINE IDENTIFIERS AND FEATURES
The Core Data shall contain detailed credit bureau data, identifiers, and other features as of the specified archive date.
(A) Record Identifier. The Contractor shall assign the NID provided by the third party to each credit record in the data file. The Contractor may also assign its own unique, invariant, anonymized identifier to each record. Either of these identifiers will enable OCC staff to track individual records over time.
(B) Record Features. For each month-end archive date, the Contractor shall provide then-current information for each credit record.
| (1) Record Features. Minimum required record features are the NID, credit score information, and basic demographic information, including place of residency and information on date of birth. |
| The following record features (or equivalent) would satisfy the minimum requirement: |
· FICO credit score2.
· Proprietary credit score and/or VantageScore 3.0 credit score.
· Indicator that a credit record was unscoreable, for each credit scoring model offered.
· ZIP code of residency.
· City (or town) and state of residency.[footnoteRef:3] [3: In this document, the term “state of residency” refers to the 50 U.S. states; Washington, D.C.; U.S. territories; overseas military areas; and foreign countries.]
· Census tract of residency.
· Date of birth of record-holder.
· Date the credit record was first established in the Contractor’s database.
(2) (Optional CLIN) Record Feature. The following record feature (or equivalent) is optional:
· Reasons why unscoreable. For unscoreable records, an unscoreable-reasons code (e.g., the consumer’s credit record may be too new, too stale, and/or too thin to be scoreable).
(C) Tradeline features. For each credit record, the Contractor shall provide data on the fundamental features of every tradeline associated with the record. Fundamental features are tradeline features that are irreducible, and cannot be computed from the data on other tradeline features that the Contractor provides.[footnoteRef:4] [4: Examples of fundamental tradeline features are the kind of business, account status, account type, special comments, ECOA status, and various tradeline dates. Examples of what we do not require are the number of tradelines per record, or the number of tradelines that are 90 days past due over the past 12 months.
(1) Tradeline features. The minimum required tradeline features provide basic account information on credit tradelines, reporting institutions, public record accounts, collection accounts, and hard inquiries; and enable the OCC to identify and track individual tradelines and account information over time.
The following tradeline features (or equivalent) would satisfy the minimum requirement:
· Type of loan or other credit account.
· Account opening date.
· Account closing date.
· Balance amount.
· Original credit amount.
· High credit or credit limit amount.
· Credit account number, scrambled for anonymity.
· Account’s open or closed status.
· Account’s delinquency status.
· Account’s monthly history of payment status.
· Total past due amount.
· Term of the loan.
· ECOA designation.
· Payment due amount.
· Actual payment amount.
· Reporting institution’s ID number, scrambled for anonymity, for all tradelines (credit, public record, collection, inquiry, etc.).
· Reporting institution’s type of industry.
· Public records data.
· Collection data: The Contractor shall specify what kinds of collections are included, and if any types of collection accounts (such as medical collections) are excluded.
· Inquiry data: “Hard” inquiries related to credit applications are expected. The Contractor shall specify if any inquiries are combined into a cluster and, if so, the clustering rule.
(2) (Optional CLIN) Tradeline Features. The following tradeline features (or equivalent) are optional:
· Trended data: These data provide a 24-month history of consumer payment behavior, including such data items as balance due, scheduled payment amount, actual payment amount, date of last payment, high credit, and/or credit limit.
· Frequency of the required payments.
2.3 OPTIONAL DATA
Optional Supplements to the Core Data Initial File
(Optional CLIN) Initial File_2. The OCC may decide to purchase credit bureau data and FICO scores for approximately 50,000 additional specified consumer credit records (for a total of 300,000 consumers) as of September 30, 2016.
(Optional CLIN) Initial File_3. The OCC may decide to purchase credit bureau data and FICO scores for approximately 100,000 additional specified consumer credit records (for a total of 350,000 consumers) as of September 30, 2016.
(Optional CLIN) Initial File_4. The OCC may decide to purchase credit bureau data and FICO scores for approximately 150,000 additional specified consumer credit records (for a total of 400,000 consumers) as of September 30, 2016.
Optional Supplements to the Core Data Follow-Up Files
(Optional CLIN) Core Data Follow-up 1B. The OCC may decide to purchase credit bureau data and FICO scores for approximately 4,000 additional specified consumer credit records (for a total of 12,000 consumers) as of Core Archive Date 1 (e.g., January 31, 2017).
(Optional CLIN) Core Data Follow-up 2B. The OCC may decide to purchase credit bureau data and FICO scores for approximately 4,000 additional specified consumer credit records (for a total of 12,000 consumers) as of Core Archive Date 2 (e.g., April 30, 2017).
Optional Additional Follow-Up Files
(Optional CLIN) Follow-up A files. The OCC may decide to purchase up to 11 additional Optional Follow-up files of 8,000 records each (designated as “Follow-up A” files) files. Each file would be based on a list of consumers provided by a third party, as discussed in Part II, Section 2.0 above.
(Optional CLIN) Follow-up B files. The OCC may decide to purchase up to 11 additional Optional Follow-up files of 12,000 records each (designated as “Follow-up B” files. Each file would be based on a list of consumers provided by a third party, as discussed in Part II, Section 2.0 above.
The Contractor shall offer each Optional Follow-up file with required and optional record and tradeline identifiers and features identical to those listed in Part II, Section 2.2 above.
Each Optional Follow-up file shall contain data as of a month-end archive date to be specified by the OCC during the contract period. These month-end archive dates are expected to occur between September 30, 2015 and November 30, 2017 inclusive.
2.4 OPTIONAL DATA SERVICE
Part II, Section 2.0 describes how a third party will supply to the Contractor the PII and non-informative I.D. numbers (NID) for one or more lists of specific consumers. The OCC may request the Contractor to supply this information to one or two credit bureaus identified by the OCC. The provision of this information shall be subject to the Contractor’s data protection procedures.
This would enable each credit bureau that receives the information from the Contractor to create an internal file consisting of the PII, the NID, the consumer’s credit record data contained in the credit bureau’s files, and any credit score that the credit bureau may provide. The credit bureau would then produce a file of anonymized data by creating a copy of its internal file and removing the PII. It would deliver the resulting anonymized data file to the OCC. The OCC would publish or share with outside entities only aggregate results, such as regression coefficient, tabular, or graphical summaries of data that do not reveal information about individual records.
3.0 DOCUMENTATION
Documentation. At the time of delivery of any Core Data file (Initial or Follow-up) or any Optional Follow-up Data file to the OCC, the Contractor shall provide clear documentation of the following:
(1) Data sources. The name and basic descriptive features of the source file(s) from which the data set and related data (e.g., characteristics, reasons for missing data, data revisions) were developed.
(2) Methodology. A detailed explanation of procedures by which the data file was developed, as well as the details of any commercial software that were used in developing the data (such as the name and version number of the geocoding software).
(3) Data definitions. The Contractor shall provide clear definitions of all data items.
(4) Credit score validation. For every type and year of credit score provided to the OCC (i.e., FICO credit score, VantageScore, proprietary credit score, and/or alternative credit score), the Contractor shall provide validation results for the credit scoring model, including detailed odds charts that link score ranges to expected default rates.
(Optional CLIN) Optional Documentation: Logical Code. The Contractor shall provide a document containing Logical Code, which shall explain how to reliably combine values of record and/or tradeline-level data codes to generate key measures of credit use that include (but are not limited to) the number of open accounts, number of active accounts, the aggregate utilization rate on all revolving accounts of a given record, a record’s most recent date of declaration of bankruptcy, etc.
4.0 DELIVERABLES
Format of Deliverables. Data shall be delivered as electronic files (SAS or ASCII format). Documentation shall be delivered as electronic files, preferably as PDF documents or Excel spreadsheets. Data delivery shall be through secure FTP. Documentation may be delivered via email.
Delivery of each data file and associated documentation is required within three weeks of the award of contract (for existing month-end archives), or within three weeks of the relevant month-end archive date (for future month-end archives), or within any shorter delivery time that may be offered by the Contractor. If three weeks is not sufficient time for delivery, the Contractor may propose an alternative delivery schedule and explain why it cannot meet the three-week delivery time.
IT Accessibility. The Contractor must ensure that all Electronic Information Technology (EIT) meets the applicable standards of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.
