1.0 Scope
1.1 Scope
The contractor shall provide Software-as-a-Service together with system design, architecture, configuration, de-velopment, testing and validation, integration, deployment and operational support services for a complete cli-ent case management solution to replace the existing Probation and Pretrial Services IT portfolio, specifically the Probation and Pretrial Services Automated Case Tracking System (PACTS). The U.S. Probation and Pretrial Services (PPS) is a national outcome driven system with the mission to assist the federal courts in the fair ad-ministration of justice, protect the community and bring about long-term positive change in individuals under supervision.
The vision for the solution is a national single-client case management system that offers seamless, streamlined workflows and is outcome-driven ensuring PPS staff can fully perform their mission anywhere within the United States, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. Additionally, the solution shall improve the day-to-day effectiveness and efficiencies of the probation and pretrial services of-ficers assigned to investigate and supervise clients. The solution shall leverage innovative technologies to fur-ther support PPS outcome-driven and evidence-based programs.
The solution shall consist of one (1) or more Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) tools which can be configured and integrated to replace the legacy systems. The solution shall support the management of the entire PPS in-vestigation and supervision activities and workflows. The solution shall provide full transparency into the work-flow management processes with the ability to make changes to those workflow processes through configura-
USCA19R0062 - Page 5 of 33 tion or minor software code changes. The solution shall also support the migration of a subset of PPS data from the existing systems to the solution (including documents and images).
1.2 Background
The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AOUSC) is the administrative arm of the federal judiciary. The AOUSC's unique mission is to provide the Judicial branch a broad range of services and functions, from aiding in developing and implementing judiciary policies and procedures to delivering administrative, legal, and In-formation Technology (IT) services to the courts.
Within the AOUSC, the Department of Program Services (DPS) is responsible for providing business and tech-nical services that directly support the mission of the U.S. Courts. One of the offices within DPS is the Case Management Systems Office (CMSO), whose mission is to effectively and efficiently develop, deliver, and sup-port mission critical case management applications and systems to the U.S. Courts. These applications, in turn, support the daily operations of the Judiciary’s Appellate Courts, District Courts, Bankruptcy Courts, Defender Services Offices, and Probation and Pretrial Services Offices located throughout the United States and its territ-ories. The Probation and Pretrial Services Office (PPSO) within DPS is responsible for providing administrative support, legal, program and policy guidance to the federal Probation and Pretrial Services Offices in furtherance of its mission.
The PPS system is the community corrections arm of the federal judiciary. PPS consists of 94 districts throughout the United States, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico.
PPS employs approximately 9,000 officers, officer assistants, supervisors, deputy chiefs, chiefs, information technology personnel, budget specialists, human resources professionals, and support staff.
The legacy PACTS system is an internally developed, non-COTS, custom-built case management system used by probation and pretrial services staff that traces its origins to the 1990’s. Its capabilities and complexity have evolved over time to meet stakeholder needs. The system currently resides in a complex portfolio of PPS applic-ations and interfaces with multiple internal and external systems, and with many interdependencies where one change can potentially impact another.
2.0 Overall Objectives
The contractor shall provide end-to-end life cycle support to design, architect, configure, develop, test and val-idate, integrate, deploy and operationally support a high quality and secure new probation and pretrial services client case management Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform. The solution shall possess the ability to integ-rate and incorporate new technologies entering the marketplace.
2.1 Security
The solution shall be compliant with all relevant security controls outlined in the Federal Information Pro-cessing Standard (FIPS), the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) and Federal Risk and Au-thorization Management Program (FedRAMP) to include, but not limited to, the ability of the federal govern-ment to perform a security certification and accreditation process to obtain acceptance and approval to operate.
The solution shall be FedRAMP High compliant, Judiciary Information Security Framework (JISF) High com-pliant, and Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Security Policycompliant.

Any travel will be included in the proposal and separately priced. Note, any firm fixed price or T&M BPA calls are not permitted to have overhead and general and administrative costs as separately priced items.

iii. For cost reimbursable tasks, the contractor shall provide a cost proposal in accordance with their approved and audited rates. Acceptable cost reimbursable contract types are: cost, cost sharing, cost plus incentive fee, cost plus fixed fee, and cost plus award fee. Cost plus percentage of cost con-tracts are not allowed. For indirect costs, the contractor shall be reimbursed at their current ap-proved indirect rates. Any fees (e.g. fixed fee percentages) will be negotiated and mutually agreed upon by both parties.
iv. For pricing related to the PPS - CM Platform, the contractor shall use the established tiered pri-cing established for the software solution.
b) The Government will negotiate with the contractor to finalize the scope, pricing, and other details of the requirement.
c) The Government will issue a BPA call that reflects the scope of work, deliverables, the period and place of performance, other mutually agreed upon parameters of the task, and the total price for the BPA call. On the ac-tual BPA call:
- Any firm fixed price CLINs of a BPA call will only show the total fixed price for that work.
- Any T&M or cost reimbursable CLINs may be further detailed to show labor categories, hourly rates, and hours.
4) Only upon issuance of a BPA call will the contractor commence work.
5) All BPA calls will be bilateral and binding once issued.
