DA01--ORD OneStream Data Unification (VA-27-00010279)

The Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Research and Development (ORD) is seeking information from industry on how to build a unified, automated data‑unification environment for its research administrative systems (OneStream, VAIRRS, RAFT, ePromise). The effort will involve designing and configuring automated ETL pipelines, a harmonized enterprise data model, role‑based security, dashboards, and end‑to‑end workflow automation within the COTS OneStream platform. The contractor will be responsible for full design, development, configuration, implementation, testing, documentation, training, and post‑go‑live support over a 12‑month performance period (with a possible 12‑month extension). Key deliverables include a Project Management Plan, automated data integrations, a unified data model with metadata mapping, configurable input forms, at least 20 role‑specific dashboards/reports, workflow configurations, security/access matrix, and ongoing support. The solicitation is an RFI only; no funds are authorized and responses are not offers. • Scope: Consolidate four legacy research data systems into a single OneStream‑based reporting platform. • Required capabilities: Secure automated data ingestion (ETL), data validation, transformation, enrichment, unified data model, dashboards, role‑based security, workflow automation, and compliance with extensive VA/Federal security standards (FISMA, NIST, FIPS, HIPAA, etc.). • Performance period: 12 months (option for an additional 12 months). • Deliverables: Project Management Plan, integration pipelines, data model, documentation, dashboards/reports (≥20), workflow configurations, security model, post‑implementation support. • Submission: Responses due by 5:00 pm ET, October 7 2026 via email to Evan Lee. • No budget or award information is disclosed; this is an information‑gathering exercise.
