Rural Health Data Atlas-Data Visualization and Analysis Platform

The State of South Dakota Department of Health seeks a vendor to design, develop, and deploy a cloud‑based, self‑service data‑visualization and analysis platform – the Rural Health Data Atlas – that aggregates health‑related data from multiple state and federal sources and makes it accessible to hospitals, community coalitions, tribal nations, and the public. The solution must reside in a State‑owned Microsoft Azure tenant (or an approved alternative), provide role‑based access, geospatial mapping, interactive dashboards, and full compliance with security, accessibility, and data‑residency requirements. Deliverables include project plans, data‑integration pipelines, UI/UX designs, training materials, and post‑launch support, with a timeline that moves from project kickoff in October 2026 to a public MVP launch by early February 2027. • Develop a secure, Azure‑hosted platform that ingests, curates, and visualizes de‑identified health data (including GIS layers at county, ZIP, and Tribal‑trust‑land levels). • Implement a no‑code, role‑based self‑service UI with maps, charts, tables, and analytics (including optional AI/ML features). • Provide full project lifecycle deliverables: project management plan, risk management, testing plan, training, documentation, and ongoing support for a one‑year base period with up‑to‑four renewal options.
