REQUIREMENTS DESCRIPTION
Financial Management System
Operation, Management and Sustainment
PURPOSE/DESCRIPTION
We are conducting market research to identify potential sources that may possess the expertise, capabilities, and experience to meet the requirements for services needed for the operation, management, design, development, implementation and sustainment of Air Force Reserve (AFR) Financial Management Systems. These Financial Management Systems process pay and budget information for AFR and active duty personnel located throughout the United States, which include locations at HQ AFRC Robins AFB GA; SAF/RE Washington DC; and ARPC Denver CO. The planned acquisition strategy is to award a five-year contract (a basic plus four one-year option periods). The contract will primarily consist of: (1) programming and maintenance of 12 financial management systems and related software: (2) Help-Desk services to provide daily assistance to personnel to support these systems; (3) software releases for the financial management systems and maintenance training on those software releases: and (4) database administration for approximately 45 databases spread out over the United States. The financial data produced by these systems is transferred through various communications networks such as local area networks (LAN), wide are networks (WAN), and Defense Data Networks (DDN). The requirement will also include the provision of IT materials required to support the effort. The objectives of this requirement are: (1) Provide software engineering, software programming, software life cycle management (SLCM), network, help desk, financial management functional expertise, and security support for Financial Management Systems. This includes development and maintenance of software applications to provide the user more flexible and powerful tools to accomplish their financial management tasks. (2) Provide software reengineering for the migration of systems into web-based systems for Microsoft Windows XP, Visual Basic, .NET, and Windows 2003 server environments. (3) Provide Software reengineering of several PC-based and MAPPER mainframe-based systems into .NET web-based systems. The new Financial Management System will employ centralized processing techniques on networked file servers or web servers. This will result in more efficient processing and elimination of redundant data storage.
