The Federal government seeks to establish a rapid-prototyping environment to pilot test the potential to link health care data. It also seeks to utilize next generation analytical applications to answer specific CER questions. The offerors should use existing technology platforms and customize their application for use in a rapid pilot test environment of analytic tools for CER. The environment and tools will be used to integrate, analyze, and visualize data from diverse data sources. The contractor will need to maintain appropriate security and privacy safeguards. The contractor will be required to pilot test use of the analytical platform to:



A. Link data from Federal data sets and other sources, which may include databases of patient, provider, and demographic data.

B. Design and create a user interface to query the linked database.

C. Use the linked database to perform sample analyses based on specific CER questions in cooperation with the Federal government.
