Description

The Bureau of the Public Debt (BPD) intends to issue a simplified acquisition for base year and four (4) option years for the purpose of obtaining support services to advise on the development of an enterprise-wide integrated information technology architecture. BPD has published an initial baseline architecture document with several subsequent updates. A formalized governance process was adopted in January 2001. Subsequently, a conceptual architecture was developed containing architectural principles, new technology components such as new email software, a directory services architecture, and a JAVA development framework. Many of these components have now been successfully implemented. BPD now wants to build upon its current architectural successes and continue to improve its program objectives including the development of a "to be" architecture, the conduction of gap analyses to determine how we move from our "as-is" architecture to our "to-be" architecture. BPD's ultimate goal is to achieve audit compliance for its IT Architecture. BPD intends to coordinate the creation of an enterprise-wide integrated information technology architecture using Treasury's Enterprise Architecture Framework (TEAF) as guidance to document the relationship between BPD goals and functions, information requirements, applications, data structures, and technology base. The solication should be released on or about 12-7-01. We will post the solicitation to FedBizOpps when it is released.
