DHS S&T seeks comments on the use of a BOA to accommodate DHS requirements for COE research, analysis, and technical services, unclassified and classified, as well as DHS-specific science and engineering education and training. DHS S&T proposes to award a BOA to the current and future COE research lead university, to be renewed once after five years, and again at the end of its period of performance, renewals being subject to suitable COE progress in research, development, test, evaluation, education and training. OUP will determine the need for a BOA for the COE research lead by matching university capabilities with DHS?s requirements and needs (S&T will address high priority requirements first). The following thrust areas will be covered under Phase XI of the COE BOAs: Center of Excellence for Emerging and Zoonotic Animal Diseases (CEEZAD) Awareness and Localization of Explosives-Related Threats (ALERT) Borders, Trade, and Immigration Institute (BTI) Critical Infrastructure Resilience Institute (CIRI) Coastal Resilience Center (CRC)
