BACKGROUND:
The Michigan State Police (MSP) has an existing contract with Sample Tracking and Control Solutions Casework Enterprise (STACS-CW). STACS-CW is used by the MSP for receiving, tracking, and analysis of Body Fluid Identification and DNA evidence and is utilized by all seven of the MSP Forensic Science Division laboratories.

TASKS & DELIVERABLES:
Deliverables will not be considered complete until the Agency Project Manager has formally accepted them. Technical support is required to assist with the following tasks:
Requirements Definition Stream The Requirements Definition Stream encompasses the activities related to the drawing up of the detailed system requirements for implementing the software changes requested by the client.
Based on the client's user requirements and through an iterative process STACS DNA will, with the active participation of the client, produce a final set of System Requirements This iterative process shall involve no more than two draft versions for review by the client and a final version of the System Requirements. Once signed-off by the client, the System Requirements will form the basis of the work and will be the authoritative document for the Construction Stream
Final Scope Assessment Report Based on the approved System Requirements, STACS DNA will provide the final Level of Effort (LoE) assessment and corresponding costing information to the client. The assessment will reveal one of the three following situations:
1. The LoE required will be covered by the proposed budget. In this case the impact is neutral
- no special action needs to be taken other than proceeding with the customization to the software.
2. The LoE required will exceed the proposed budget. In this case, the Client will either have to remove some of the work previously defined in the scope or increase the allocated budget and schedule for the work to be performed.
3. The LoE required will be less than the proposed budget. In this case the client will have the option to (1) increase the scope of the customization work, (2) translate the remaining budget into STACS Services Credits, or (3) decrease the allocated budget.
Construction Stream The Construction Stream encompasses all the activities related to the actual customization of STACS i.e., Design & Development and the creation of the revised User Guide to reflect the new version of the software. During the Design & Development phase, "review points" may be established to allow for the demonstration of the work accomplished to date. The "review points", if required, will be scheduled by the STACS DNA Project Authority.
Testing and Acceptance Stream Given the limited scope of this incremental release and the level of experience of client staff with the STACS product, STACS DNA proposes that system testing be performed by client staff thus not requiring the presence of a STACS DNA resource onsite.
Integration Testing Integration Testing ensures that all STACS components are thoroughly tested and delivered to the client without any defects.
Installation and Configuration The client will perform the installation and configuration of the customized STACS software on its equipment. STACS DNA will provide all the required Installation and Configuration instructions to the client.
System Testing The client agrees to execute and complete system tests within two weeks of delivery of the enhancements. During the testing phase the client will report anomalies on a regular basis to STACS DNA using the customer portal. This will ensure prompt resolution of issues and final delivery of the product.
