Description
The United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) has a requirement from the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) to provide business system development and maintenance support services. This encompasses the Electronic Grants System (EGS) and the electronic Biomedical Research Application Portal (eBRAP), which are Government-owned, contractor-operated mission-support business systems. This effort will provide specific support for the two business systems, eBRAP and EGS, which constitute the Platform for Research Administration, a non-commercial system designed and developed over 20 years to meet the unique business processes and activities to support Government-sponsored biomedical research funding life-cycle from proposal receipt through awards management and regulatory oversight. These activities relate primarily to the USAMRDC organizations including CDMRP, the Office of Human and Animal Research Oversight (OHARO) and the United States Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA) as well as other organizations within the Department of Defense (DoD). Although separate applications, these systems are interdependent, supporting end-to-end business processes. The systems utilize web-services, common data dictionaries and common data management processes that facilitate data synchronization. Support for these systems under this contract is focused on the tasks identified; however, multiple service contractors provide various support for the use and management of these systems including information assurance, data management, network and hosting services.
