- Description
- This synopsis is issued for informational and planning purposes only. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is interested in applying a consistent analytical framework, to include a process, methods, criteria and tools needed for continuously evaluating the condition of the Department?s information technology portfolio. This evaluation will require the application of an analytic framework that will rapidly and accurately characterize systems, individual mission or business applications, and/or enterprise solutions in a minimum of two dimensions: technology fitness, and business value to the Department. Other meaningful analyses are possible, and may be proposed in response to this RFI. All components must be scalable to accommodate the expected volume of major IT investments, and must be valid, accessible, and consistent when applied to individual systems or applications as well. A historical view of the Department?s portfolio, allowing will be a key element of value added for DHS. Methodologies proposed should align well to known best practices in the public and private sectors, and be clear, succinct, and intuitive. Consideration will be given to automated solutions that meet the Department?s criteria for sound architecture, including non-proprietary (open) software components, hosting on standard hardware, flexible user interface, and standard interface design. The Department is developing key supporting capabilities for Portfolio Management. They include the DHS Technical Reference Model (TRM), the Information Technology Investment Portfolio System (ITIPS), and the As-Is baseline architecture. These capabilities will be fielded by the end of the third quarter of this year. The To-Be baseline architecture will be available in August 2003. The description of the aforementioned services is not meant to be all inclusive, but only meant to convey a reasonable idea of the types of services that will be included in this Study.
