Synopsis:

The Defense Agencies Initiative (DAI) is a Department of Defense (DoD) enterprise initiative that will modernize and transform the financial management capabilities of the Defense Agencies and Field Activities across the DoD. The Defense Agencies have a need to replace their existing financial management and accounting systems to comply with statutory and regulatory requirements. As a result, the Defense Agencies need an integrated financial management system to achieve auditability through reliable and accurate financial data. To address this need, the DAI was formed to modernize and transform the financial management capabilities of the Defense Agencies.

The DAI Program implemented Oracle Federal Financials (v11.5.10.2) to its first Defense Agency, the Business Transformation Agency (BTA) on 1 October 2008. Since that time, DAI has implemented to 16 additional Defense Agencies within the DOD. In addition, the DAI Program upgraded to Oracle Federal Financials (v12.2.3) in May 2015.

The DOD has a significant financial and intellectual investment in creating the DAI business solution for the participating Defense Agencies. The DAI Program Office must continue to mature the DAI solution for each successive agency.

The DAI Program Management Office (PMO) is seeking to obtain Compliance and Configuration Management expertise in support of development, maintenance, and implementation of the DAI solution, operations, and provisions. Also, to obtain Oracle Applications expertise in implementing and supporting Oracle Financials-based business solutions in the Department of Defense through the maturation of the DAI Global Model Solution focusing on Budget to Report (B2R), Procure to Pay (P2P), Order to Fulfill (O2F), Cost Accounting (CA), Time & Labor (T&L), Budget Formulation, Grants Financial Management, Resale Accounting, Governance Risk and Compliance, and Acquire to Retire (A2R) process areas and capabilities.

The scope of this procurement is to acquire compliance and configuration management services that will provide development, enhancement, and maintenance support for current and future releases of the DAI Global Model that are either currently deployed or planned for deployment with Defense Agencies participating in DAI. The requirement will provide functional support for the configuration management functions of DAI. It will provide advice, analysis, recommendation, and hands-on support for compliance and configuration management for the development and implementation of additional and supplemental Agency-specific functional and technical capabilities to current and future releases of the DAI Global Model and other aspects of DAI, to mandated standards. It will provide architectural leadership and support for the development, enhancement, and maintenance of the DAI Global Model Solution.

The Government anticipates issuance of contract utilizing firm fixed price and cost-plus-incentive-fee contract type, utilizing procedures in FAR Part 12 and 15.

The resultant contract will have an effective base period of performance of 1 year, with two 1 year options, and an optional transition-out task with anticipated duration of 3 months. Solicitation SP4701-16-R-0003 is expected to be issued in January 2016 with an expected closing date in February 2016.
