- Description
- Draft Statement of objectives Request for information. VBA VR&E Service is responsible for administering VR&E benefits to veterans, service members and their dependents through four distinct benefit programs/chapters. VR&E employs nearly 1,000 professional vocational rehabilitation counselors and ~350 administration staff and delivers services through a network of nearly 350 office locations. The service delivery model works to support Veterans where they are located (including overseas). VR&E has operations at 56 regional offices, the National Capital Region Benefits Office, approximately 142 out-based offices, 71 Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES) military installations, and 95 VetSuccess on Campus (VSOC) schools/sites. In FY17, VR&E issued $1.4B to over 130K beneficiaries. Modernization of the existing case management applications will impact the VBA VR&E benefit programs and implementing changes will be challenging due to the changes needed to the VBA's IT infrastructure. However, the VBA believes that there is an opportunity for identifying a COTS solution that will preserve government oversight and accountability of the process while empowering VR&E counselors to focus on our Veterans receiving the services that they are entitled to in the most efficient manner possible. VBA is seeking a solution that meets the performance-based needs of the VBA and effectively meets the following critical processing needs to accomplish business objectives within the VBA's VR&E service line. Our strategic goal is to eliminate the administrative burden of ingestion, establishment, and processing of veteran eligibility through establishment of automated capabilities so that VR&E personnel can focus on managing veteran outcomes.
