| Challenge: |
All Federal government agencies have been directed by the President's Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to
implement a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) electronic travel solution.
|
| Solution: |
Starry Associates was contracted by a government agency to investigate their legacy travel system and interfaces into the
accounting system. From the analysis, Starry Associates then developed and implemented the "Back Office" interfaces into the new e-Travel system.
Once the e-Travel System was in a production state, Starry Associates derived a crosswalk process that was applied to the financial management system.
This allowed for the transparent conversion of data, and an immediate "go-live" support of the e-Travel system upon completion of the financial
management system conversion. In addition, Starry Associates completed the project ahead of schedule, including program changes and testing, and held to a
quality process of 100% reconciliation of the values within the system. In addition, Starry Associates passed all of the audit and process reviews (SAS70 and OMB's A-123) requirements.
|
| Benefit: |
To date, Starry Associates has assisted this government agency in
successfully going through two major conversions of data and financial accounting transactions regarding
the eTravel system. In addition, this successful conversion allowed this government agency to become established as
the Center for Excellence for the enterprise-wide e-Travel solution.
