Immigration and Naturalization Service
Office of Financial Management
Washington, DC
Contact:: Soraya Correa , Director
Financial Systems Modernization
Phone: (202) 514-0573

The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) Office of Financial Management (OFM) established the Financial Management Re-engineering Project (FMRP) to manage and report on progress made towards improving and streamlining the INS financial operations. In order to effectively manage the work efforts of the various government agencies and contractors involved with the FMRP, FMRP management staff has initiated various acquisitions to streamline and improve contract management and administration. In March of 1999, INS contracted with CLMS to provide support in these efforts. Currently, CLMS’ role is twofold – to provide acquisition management support and program management support.

 

As acquisition management support, CLMS supports the FMRP Management organization in the development of Inter Agency Agreements. The CLMS team assists the FMRP management staff by reviewing, analyzing, and assessing progress made, providing performance measurement data to determine the return on investment for the work activities performed by the agencies.

Work efforts include, but are not limited to:

  • the development of task orders
  • the review and assessment of task order management plans
  • the analysis and evaluation of deliverables received
  • the review and analysis of invoices
  • participation in, and documentation of, various meetings and interchanges with Agency personnel

CLMS assists the FMRP management staff in: developing the necessary acquisition plans and solicitations; and evaluating plans for conducting the acquisition of Contractor services under GSA BPAs. We assist FMRP management staff with the development, implementation, and management of task orders for systems customization and implementation efforts; we conduct research and provide analysis of customer requirements and support resources, we assist in the development and issuance of delivery or task orders, change orders, and contract modifications; we provide analysis of Contractor performance and deliverables to ensure full compliance with contract terms and conditions.

As program management support, CLMS provide direct support and assistance to the Director, Financial Systems Modernization in the development, implementation, and maintenance of program/project plans, reports, briefings, and other documentation. Presently, the FMRP management staff has developed and implemented several tools to accomplish reporting. CLMS provides the resources necessary to maintain those tools and modify them as necessary to ensure comprehensive, consistent reporting capabilities are maintained on the FMRP. Examples of the tools currently in use include:

  • The MS Project Implementation Plan, which includes a historical record of all changes to the plan since its inception
  • The MS ACCESS action item tracking system which was designed to track and report on all action items emanating from meetings and the FMRP implementation plan activities
  • The FMRP Intranet site which contains a repository of key project documents, contact lists and the latest status of the project.

Immigration and Naturalization Service
Office of Information Resources Management
Washington, DC
Contact:: B. David Goldberg
Acting Associate Commissioner
Phone: (202) 514-2547

Over the past few years, the Congress has passed legislation designed to clarify expectations about the investment of public funds in Information Technology (IT) and to better define Federal agency roles and responsibilities for the stewardship of its information resources.

One significant piece of legislation is the Clinger-Cohen Act of 1996, which requires Federal agencies to focus more on the results achieved through IT investments while streamlining the Federal IT procurement process. Specifically this Act introduces much more rigor and structure into how agencies approach the selection and management of IT projects and the execution and tracking of budgets and IT management activities.

Among other things, the head of each agency is required to implement a process for maximizing the value and assessing and managing the risks of the agency’s IT acquisition. INS has performed an Organizational Assessment (OA) of the Office of Information Resources Management (OIRM) along with previous Inspector General (IG) and continuing General Accounting Office (GAO) audits that call for a continuation of process improvements at the INS and in particular within the OIRM in the IT capital planning process.

The INS is implementing these requirements through the use of the IT Investment Review Board (IT-IRB), the Executive Steering Committee (ESC) and a IT Portfolio Management Process. Along with reassessing and restructuring the way OIRM operates. This includes budgeting and its execution, reporting on and management of the INS IT portfolio. These activities are being supported by the CLMS team.

CLMS is providing comprehensive IT investment management support services to assist the IT-IRB, ESC, IT Portfolio Managers and OIRM in the management and implementation of the IT investment management process. CLMS is currently active in the development of requirements, policies, charters and operational procedures for the IT-IRB and ESC. Members of the CLMS team are also providing program management support and budget planning and execution activities.

General Services Administration, Federal Technology Services (FTS)
Information Technology Solutions (ITS)
Alexandria, Virginia
Contact: David Griffin, Project Manager
Information Technology Solutions (ITS)
Chief Technology Office
Phone: (619) 303-8932

Information Technology Solutions (ITS), Federal Technology Services, General Services Administration provides information technology resources to Federal agencies to promote use of the latest technology to deliver services, and to provide for the efficient management, coordination and operation, and use of such resources.

Over the years, ITS and its precursor organizations have developed a variety of automated applications and tools to support related but distinct business processes. These systems include the Tracking and Ordering System (TOS), Integrated Task Order Management System (ITOMS), Information Technology Solutions Shop (ITSS), On-Line Management Information System (OMIS), and other small home-grown systems. As the result of recent and ongoing organizational and business improvements, these and other applications are now undergoing a process of consolidation and standardization within the Oracle database environment.

To maintain its competitive posture and exercise leadership in the efficient and effective use of its information technology, ITS has successfully completed an initiative to eliminate the stovepipe ITSS and ITOMS databases, on the CLMS developed Common Oracle Database (CODB).  With the CODB, ITS has improved and standardized certain core business functions to a Oracle 8i open systems environment (OSE).  

CLMS support to the ITS includes data standardization, developing data conversion and cleansing routines, data migration, developing application and system interfaces, and database maintenance in a production environment.

CLMS leads the CODB effort for ITS regional applications and has performed activities such as mapping and matching, modeling, and data conversion. CLMS also serves as the Database Administrator (DBA) for Common Oracle Database and a resource for applications for writing procedures and triggers.
