Quick Summary
The Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) is conducting market research to identify qualified System Integrators for a technical refresh of the Standard Contract Reconciliation Tool (SCRT). This effort aims to migrate the legacy PowerBuilder application to a cloud-native, secure, and extensible solution. All qualified and experienced sources, including small businesses, are encouraged to respond. Responses are due March 31, 2026, at 12 PM ET.
Scope of Work
The SCRT is a client-server application built with PowerBuilder and an Oracle database, automating contract reconciliation. The technical refresh requires a new system that achieves "like-for-like" functional parity, preserving core business value and user experience, while maintaining current usability.
Key Requirements
- Technical: Develop on a sustainable, secure, and extensible non-proprietary, object-oriented codebase (low-code/no-code prohibited). Integrate with existing Oracle 19c database and leverage its functionality. Implement a robust DevSecOps pipeline using GitLab and Fortify (or equivalent).
- Security & Compliance: Adhere to all DoD and DFAS cybersecurity mandates, including Zero Trust Architecture, DISA STIGs, NIST, DoD RMF, and ICAM with CAC/PKI authentication. Address vulnerability management, supply chain security, and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) handling.
- Performance: Meet or exceed current application performance and reliability, targeting at least 99.5% annual uptime, while maintaining data integrity.
