The TRICARE Management Activity (TMA) E-Commerce System is a centralized Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system that provides contracting, accounting, and budgeting functions for TMA. BACKGROUND The TMA E-Commerce project plans to update an existing document capture sub-system that is currently deployed in a centralized environment at TMA?s facility in Aurora, Colorado. The existing system consists of 2 high speed scanners that process a total of about 10,000 paper pages per month. The current document capture sub-system is based on a desktop class scanning package. PURPOSE TMA desires to modify the existing document capture sub-system in order to: - Reduce the resource effort and user interaction currently required to process, scan, OCR, and load paper documents into Documentum. - Improve Quality Control (QC) review to allow for easier correction of errors. - Reduce or eliminate the need for the existing manual intervention and work- arounds relating to scanning and OCR processing of: graybar reports, documents that are greater than 1,000 pages in length, highlighted text, and printed forms. - Improve the integration of the document capture sub-system with the existing Documentum Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) Server by automatically initiating loads and workflows. The solicitation will require software, hardware, installation, integration support, and training to meet the Government?s requirements of the RFP and Statement of Work. Installation shall be inclusive of but not limited to any design engineering, programming, documentation, warranties and labor to accommodate the proper working and integration of all systems. Training as necessary per the requirements of the RFP and Statement of Work and shall include manuals as appropriate. The individuals completing the training will be required to evidence the adequacy of the training provided. Offerors may not artificially manipulate the price of a transaction by any means.
