2 Statement Of Work- Residential Mortgage Data Service

Statement of Work: Residential Mortgage Data Service

Section 1: Background

The Government Accountability Office (GAO) requires a comprehensive data service on residential (1-4 family) mortgages in the United States to support congressionally requested analyses of housing markets and policies. Among other things, the data service will enable GAO to assess current and historical information on loan and borrower characteristics, mortgage performance, and home values.

Section 2: Purpose

GAO often needs large database resources to provide quantitative evidence to support analytic findings to support its work for the U.S. Congress. Examples of these analytic findings are found on the agency’s web site:

https://www.gao.gov.

Section 3: Scope of Work

The service will provide a commercially available, off-the-shelf, cloud-based product with data, services, and support for multiple user accounts as described below.

A. Data Specifications

The data service must cover mortgage origination and performance activity in the United States. The service must allow users to analyze current and historical data and must account for a large enough share of the mortgage market to accurately assess trends at different levels of geography (e.g., national, state, zip code) and/ or by market segment (e.g., enterprise/conventional, agency). Service must include:

Document Number: 05GA0A21Q0076 Page 8 of 40

1. Loan-level single-family (1-4 unit) mortgage origination, performance, and characteristics data for federally-backed and privately-held mortgages. Data must have the following characteristics or elements:

b. Loan characteristics, including:

i. Loan amount/balance at origination and over the life of the loan,

ii. Appraised/original value at origination,

iii. Market segment/loan type (e.g., enterprise/conventional, agency/government-guaranteed),

iv. Securitization/investor (e.g., enterprise, Ginnie Mae, private-label), v.Purpose (e.g., purchase loan or refinance – including type, e.g., cash-out), vi.occupancy type (owner-occupant vs investor), vii.term, and

viii. interest rate and type (fixed/adjustable rate) at origination

c. Loan payment status and performance (e.g., current, number of days delinquent, in forbearance, in foreclosure, last payment date, etc.).

d. Any applicable post-forbearance or other loan modifications or loss mitigation plans.

e. Mortgage application assessment information, including loan-to-value ratio (LTV), applicable second liens (and resulting combined LTV), debt-to-income ratio (DTI), and borrower credit score.

2. Mortgage data must be linkable through the cloud-based platform (described below) to other available modules or datasets, such as property and other public records data (e.g. from deed recorders/ tax assessors), borrower credit information, and house price information/index also offered by the service.

B. Tools

1. Cloud-based user interface that allows multiple users to access and analyze loan-level data, both with and without the use of programming languages.

2. Additional ability to export data to CSV (.csv) or similar file formats via, for example, API access, FTP delivery, direct SQL connection, or bulk downloads.

3. Ability to integrate or link external data sources within the cloud-based platform (e.g., Census Bureau data and surveys, or Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data) at either loan-level or other geographic levels (e.g., state and zip code).

4. Ability to store data or output for individual analyses or GAO engagements in GAO’s records management system.

5. Ability to use data from the data service to develop descriptive statistics and to conduct statistical analyses that will be publicly reported with citation to the source data.

6. Ten user accounts with the ability to reassign at the discretion of GAO.

Section 4: Delivery

1. Online asynchronous training available with product start date during business hours, Monday to Friday from 9:00AM - 5:00PM Eastern Standard Time.

- 5:00PM Eastern Standard Time.

4. Access to user manuals, definitions of data fields and value codes, and documentation of assumptions and information sources underlying products.

Section 5: Government-Furnished Property, Material, Equipment, or Information (GFP, GFM, GFE, or GFI)

No government property will be furnished to the contractor. The contractor may provide software to be loaded by GAO’s Information Systems and Technology Services to GAO laptops or other devices.

Section 6: Security

No badges or other measures needed.

Section 7: Travel

No travel requirements.

Section 8: Special Material Requirements

We do not anticipate any special material requirements. Any product purchase is contingent upon the compliance with GAO’s current IT security environment.

Section 9: Other Unique Requirements

None are known.

Section 10: Place of Performance

GAO is headquartered in Washington, DC and has 11 field offices. The chief place of performance will be GAO Headquarters in Washington, DC.

If the first quotation is reviewed and deemed acceptable, the contract award will be made to the corresponding vendor. If the first quotation is deemed unacceptable, review will continue to the second lowest priced quotation, to see if it is acceptable. After review, if the second quotation is deemed acceptable, the contract award will be made to the corresponding vendor. If the second lowest priced quotation is deemed unacceptable, the process will continue until a quotation is deemed acceptable.
