Several of the most important astronomical topics today that involve UV and optical astronomical spectroscopy require detailed understanding of singly iron-peak species {Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu}. Yet, our present knowledge of the atomic physics and spectra is lagging behind the avalanche of high quality spectra arising from these ions. We have started a systematic study of each of these species which is aimed to provide complete radiative models containing radiative rates and collision strengths. The proposed calculations will reach a new level of completeness and accuracy, as needed for modern astronomical applications, because of the sum of recent theoretical developments that allow for more accurate representations of the atomic species and unprecedented computational power. The spectral models will be incorporated into the widely used photoionization modeling codes CLOUDY and XSTAR for use of the astronomical community. The data will also be made widely available to the community.;
