Germany – Research and development consultancy services – Unterstützungsleistungen zur Entwicklung, Harmonisierung und Weiterentwicklung regulatorischer, datenschutzrechtlicher und organisatorischer Rahmenbedingungen

The subject of the contract is expert support and consultancy services for the SV-NATONxRACOON project for the development, harmonisation and further development of regulatory, data protection and organisational frameworks. The focus is on data protection and governance issues as well as conceptual support for project-related regulations and structures for the legally compliant and cross-site handling of research and health data, particularly in the interplay of DSGVO, national and state data protection and health law, research data regulations (e.g. GDNG) and European provisions (e.g. European Health Data Space, AI Act). SV-NATONxRACOON is integrated into the Network University Medicine (NUM). The consultancy services must be aligned with the existing data protection, governance and research data structures there. Existing concepts, regulatory frameworks and coordination processes must be assessed for their usability and further developed on a project-specific basis to avoid contradictory regulations and duplicate structures. The start of the service is planned from the award of the contract until 31 December 2029.
