DHS S&T is seeking comments on a proposed Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) to support Centers of Excellence (COE) research, analysis, and technical services, including classified work and DHS-specific education and training. The BOA would be awarded to the current and future COE research lead university, with renewals subject to satisfactory progress after five years and at the end of the performance period. The Office of University Programs will determine the need for the BOA by matching university capabilities with DHS requirements, prioritizing high-priority needs first. The scope covers Phase XI of the COE BOAs, including thrust areas such as emerging zoonotic diseases, explosives threats, border security, critical infrastructure resilience, and coastal resilience. No specific budget amounts, submission timelines, or performance location are mentioned in the description.
