About this opportunity
The U.S. Army Contracting Command - Rock Island issued a sole source justification for Groundswell's Audit, Inspection, and Review Solution (AIRS) software as a service to support the Civilian Human Resource Agency's transition from the General Fund Enterprise Business System to the Enterprise Business System - Convergence (EBS-C). The procurement is justified based on AIRS being uniquely specialized software that seamlessly integrates with the Appian interface within EBS-C and is mandated by Army Audit Agency policy for audit readiness, with market research confirming Groundswell as the sole vendor capable of providing the required functionality. The task order was awarded to Groundswell under DoD Enterprise Software Initiative Blanket Purchase Agreement N66001-24-A-0061 on September 17, 2025, though the contract value was not disclosed in the notice. The procurement includes Advanced Platform User licenses, a Signature Level Success Plan, program subscription licenses for developing applications on the Appian low-code platform, Groundswell Configuration services, and Groundswell AIRS services. The implementation will occur in phases, with CHRA required to independently test AIRS in a second phase focusing specifically on benefits-related financial processes to address critical audit functionality gaps identified during the system transition.
