Integration Analysis Packaging and BA Logical Information Model Publication. This report shall include updates and publications of the VHA Capability and Service Architecture reference model and publication of VHA-BA wide logical information model, to include outcomes/impacts related to BA’s Physical Meta-Model. All key architecture concepts and relationships shall be addressed. This documentation is uploaded into and maintained within VA-approved tooling (SQL Server, Visio, and Cameo – as appropriate). All documentation shall be in a format that is consumable by business customers using Microsoft Office, as well as published and integrated in the BA tooling repositories in order to be consumable by stakeholders. (semi-annually) (2 comprehensive packaging/publication updates) (See PWS Section 5.1.2) Quarterly Work Activity Status Briefs. These quarterly PowerPoint presentations shall review the completed and upcoming work efforts of the Integration and Reference architecture unit with BA team and stakeholders. (quarterly) (4 comprehensive Status Briefs) (See PWS Section 5.1.3) Consolidated Unit Monthly Report. The contractor shall produce and submit a consolidated monthly report describing progress and activities. This report shall include written meeting minutes, summarizing meetings attended and minutes/notes captured, tooling system status reports, integration activity updates, and any other operational updates relevant to integration and reference activities. Likewise, the contractor shall include updates depicting all referential objects and mappings “in process” and all objects/mappings that have been completed and integrated within the architecture Framework depicted in Figure 2: VHA Transition Management Framework. Additionally, the contractor shall include all pending integration activities with estimated completion dates. All information shall be architecturally aligned by Capabilities and Services as depicted in Figure 1: VHA Capability and Service Architecture. These updates are a direct result and outcome of customer and stakeholder engagements and should reflect a holistic intent to manage VHA enterprise architecture objectives as depicted in Figure 2: VHA Transition Management Framework Necessary updates to the BA Logical Information Model and Reference User Guide, and Guiding Principles shall be included. (Monthly) (12 comprehensive reports) (See PWS Section 5.1.4)

* Note 1: Significant errors or omissions are defined as deliverables not meeting the intent of the task and the work considered to be within scope of this order.

** Note 2: Continued repetitive errors may result in an unacceptable rating on performance report to be used as part of the evaluation criteria on future order competitions.

Types of Surveillance:

1. Random sampling: Appropriate for frequently recurring tasks. Evaluate randomly selected samples of the lot to determine the acceptability of the entire lot (random inspection guide, method of surveillance, lot size, sample size, performance requirement, sampling procedure, and inspection procedure).

2. One hundred percent inspection: Appropriate for tasks that occur infrequently. Inspect and evaluate performance each time task is performed.

3. Periodic surveillance: Evaluation of samples selected on other than a 100 percent or statistically random basis (such as monthly, quarterly, or semi-annually).
