Washington Headquarters Services (WHS)
Financial Management System (FMS) Monitoring and Support
December 6, 2018
GENERAL INFORMATION
1. General: This is a non-personal services contract to provide financial management monitoring and support services. The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the contract service providers performing the services herein. Such contract service providers shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government.
1.1. Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform financial management monitoring and support services as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS) except for those items specified as Government Furnished Property (GFP) and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.
1.2. Background: WHS delivers essential operational and administrative services to the DoD throughout the National Capitol Region. WHS aligns under Office of the Chief Management Officer (OCMO).
WHS service is around the clock, serving more than 64,000 customers.
In support of the DoD initiative to produce auditable financial statements by FY18, the CMO, USD(C), and USD (A&S) have approved WHS to use the Defense Agency Initiative (DAI) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. DAI is a compliant Global Solution configured so that each “Agency” will have a unique legal entity, set of books, and operating unit by Agency ID. It provides the basis for an integrated, enterprise level solution for all Defense Agencies. DAI is a critical Department of Defense (DoD) effort to modernize financial management capabilities by transforming the budget, finance, and accounting operations in order to: achieve accurate and reliable financial information; deploy a standardized system to improve overall financial management and comply with the Department's Business Enterprise Architecture including the Standard Financial Information Structure (SFIS) and Office of Federal Financial Management (OFFM) requirements; provide total cost visibility and full cost recovery by improving the management, operations, and execution of Order Management (i.e.
General Fund Reimbursable and Revolving Fund (RF)) that supports the overall OCMO mission objectives; and attain auditable Chief Financial Officer (CFO) compliant business environments with accurate, timely, and authoritative financial data.
WHS and the DAI Program Management Office (PMO) conducted transition planning from June to September 2016. Then, data conversion and cleansing commenced from October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017. At the conclusion of data conversion/cleansing, the DAI PMO successfully migrated WHS and OSD from EBAS-D to DAI from October 1 through October 23, 2017 (FY2018). WHS declared DAI as the official accounting system of record on October 1st, FY2018.
WHS currently has over 5,500 personnel using DAI. Most of the personnel perform only time and attendance functions in DAI, but approximately 1,000 of the personnel use DAI for financial management purposes. Most of the 1,000 financial management users are also time and attendance users. The Financial Management Directorate (FMD) provides budgeting, accounting, financial, systems and other management support for the agency.
FMD business processes impacted include budget formulation, funds management, finance, accounting, asset management, procurement, reimbursable order management (i.e. General Fund Reimbursable and Revolving Fund), Direct Treasury Disbursement, training, time and attendance, cost accounting, and supply chain management.
