| VBMS |
| Veteran Benefit Management System (VBMS) |
| The Veterans Benefits Management System (VBMS) is a business transformation initiative supported by technology and designed to improve VBA service delivery to Veterans. It is a holistic solution that integrates a Business Transformation Strategy (BTS) to address processes and people, web-based, paperless claims processing system. VBMS is an electronic work environment (EWE) designed for processing compensation and pension claims. Beyond claims processing, VBMS consists of: a document repository that electronically replaces the older paper folder used to track and store Veteran claim evidence; a National Work Queue (NWQ) which manages and distributes the claims workload to field users; a correspondence tool to create, send, and track communications to the Veteran; a system to manage fiduciaries for disabled Veterans; a rating feature set that allows for Disability Benefit Questionnaire (DBQ) exam results to be requested and processed through a complex schedule of rules to determine issues and service connection; and an awards module to award the Veteran's benefits and transmit the information to Treasury through the Financial Accounting System (FAS). The hardware and software (servers) associated with these functions are located in the government cloud and consist of customized software, but also some COTS products to provide a homogenous system for VBA to process compensation and pension claims. |

PIES is an automated system that manages the requests for veteran information that are required in order to develop and process claims more efficiently. PIES consists of two executable programs: PIES Create program Developed for use by Regional Office and RMC users to create 3101 requests. PIES Respond program Developed for use by individuals at NPRC to respond to 3101 requests. When a veteran submits a claim requiring service information or records not in VA custody, the VSR or other user at the VARO will open the PIES Create program. The user searches the PIES database for existing 3101s.

By reading an existing rating document created from RBA2000 or VBMS-R, the application presents the user with a list of Issues to be included in the new SOC / SSOC. Adjudicative Actions can be entered for inclusion, as well as pertinent laws selected from the RBA2000 or RBA laws list. The user may choose from a selection of cover letters to be generated. Narrative text is copied from the rating document for the Issues selected. The user is allowed to edit the newly created SOC / SSOC using Word. Statement of the Case/Supplemental SOC (SOC/SSOC) is for printing and modifying previous rating decisions.
VETSNET: RONA
Veterans Service Network (VETSNET): Request of Name and Address (RONA)
The Automated RONA is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) type of application. The GUI allows the user to interact with the application via labels, text boxes, grids, drop down list boxes, icons, and pop-up message boxes. Once the user has entered the RONA criteria into the application, they then can submit the criteria for processing that night by a batch process. The extracted data will be available the next day.
| VETSNET: PCGL |
| Veterans Service Network (VETSNET): PC Generated Letters (PCGL) |
The Personal Computer Generated Letters (PCGL) system is designed to generate letters. This user/training guide is designed to help you hit the ground running with PCGL. With PCGL, you have all the flexibility and speed of Word for Windows in the creation, editing, and printing of your documents. The PCGL system can generate letters using the free form or predefined mode. Free form allows you to type a letter from scratch or select individual paragraphs in putting together a letter. It will also set up the proper spacing and formatting for the address, greeting, and closing of a letter which you type yourself without using predefined letters or individual paragraphs. The free form mode may not be available to all users. Predefined letters minimize user input. Your screens may not appear exactly as shown in this document. Screens may differ due to configuration and site options, as well as ongoing enhancements. Provides letter generation capabilities to Veterans Service Center (C&P, Edu), LGY Loan Guaranty, and ORM (Office of Resource Management - new) using PCs and accessing BDN and VETSNET data. Possible replacement that allows central printing and integrates with newer versions of windows/office
