The system is the IRS solution for HSPD-12 Physical Access Control interoperability and implements the use of the IRS SMARTID to control physical access to facilities. The physical access control IT architecture features 25 Production servers distributed across the enterprise to run all of the systems. The EPACS PMO plans to complete the transition from ICMIS to EPACS by FY 2025. Market research was conducted via the EPACS national team and the HIRSCH system was selected to provide enterprise-wide access control equipment to the IRS. Based on this selection, the EPACS team mandated the use of the HIRSCH system nationwide. Only HIRSCH certified service providers are authorized to install associated equipment. Additionally, HIRSCH and BOSCH brand name products are currently used by the IRS enterprise-wide and these specific products are required to support continuity of operations and compatibility with existing software.
