The objectives of this procurement are two-fold. First, the contractor is to perform all functions associated with the conduct and data processing of the annual Survey of Scientific and Engineering Expenditures at Universities and Colleges. The contractor will also provide technical support for analytical, descriptive, and comparative purposes for data maintained in the system. Second, the contractor will provide maintenance support of the academic Integrated Data Base (IDB). The IDB includes the survey mentioned above and as well as additional academic surveys conducted under separate contracts within the Division of Science Resources Studies. As part of the IDB task, the contractor will produce summaries of institutional data, as well as perform systematic edit checks across surveys to assess the relationship of financial and personnel resources and the validity of the data as reported. As part of its statutory charge to provide a central clearinghouse for the collection, interpretation, and analysis of data on the current and projected availability of scientific and technical resources in the United States, NSF collects and disseminates statistical data on detailed characteristics of science and engineering resources in colleges and universities. The annual survey that is the subject of this study as well as other academic surveys in the IDB provide statistical data and analytical reports for dissemination to users including internal NSF management and the National Science Board, other science and technology policy makers, institutional researchers, and private organizations interested in higher education.

这次采购的目标有两个。首先，承包商将履行与进行和处理大学和学院科学和工程支出年度调查有关的所有职能。承包商还将为系统中维护的数据的分析、描述和比较目的提供技术支持。第二，承包商将提供学术综合数据库(IDB)的维护支持。美洲开发银行包括上述调查，以及在科学资源研究司内根据单独合同进行的其他学术调查。作为美洲开发银行任务的一部分，承包商将编制机构数据摘要，并对各种调查进行系统的编辑检查，以评估财政和人力资源之间的关系以及所报告数据的有效性。作为其法定职责的一部分，为收集、解释和分析有关美国当前和预计可获得的科学和技术资源的数据提供中央信息中心，NSF收集和传播有关高校科学和工程资源的详细特征的统计数据。作为这项研究的主题的年度调查以及美洲开发银行的其他学术调查提供了统计数据和分析报告，以便分发给用户，包括NSF内部管理层和国家科学委员会、其他科学和技术政策制定者、机构研究人员和对高等教育感兴趣的私人组织。
