- Description
- The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has a critical need for an integrated financial and asset management capability. The Financial and Logistics Integrated Technology Enterprise (FLITE) Program is the initiative the VA has undertaken to deliver such a capability. The mission of the FLITE Program is to standardize functional processes and modernize the information technology (IT) environment that supports financial and logistics management within VA. The program has two primary components, an asset management component referred to as Strategic Asset Management (SAM) project, and a financial management component referred to as Integrated Financial Accounting System (IFAS). The FLITE Program also includes requirements for Program Management Support, Organizational Change Management and Independent Verification and Validation. The purpose of this specific announcement is to inform interested firms that the VA acquisition team has scheduled an Industry Day Conference for these anticipated requirements on February 12, 2008 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in McLean, VA. The Industry Day Conference will be held at the MITRE Corporation, MITRE McLean Campus located at 7515 Colshire Drive, McLean, VA 22102-7508. As a result of space limitations, attendance will be restricted to three (3) representatives from each company until the maximum seating capacity of 275 is reached. To register for the Industry Day Conference, please send an email request to Cory Price at cory.price@va.gov by 4:00 PM (Central Time) February 5, 2008. Your request must specifically identify your company name as well as the specific name(s) and email contact information of the individuals who will be attending. A confirmation message will be provided by a VA acquisition representative. Reservations for the Industry Day Conference will be on a ???first come??? basis. Please note, attendance/participation at the Industry Day Conference is encouraged but is not a prerequisite for participation in any solicitation that may eventually result from the conference. The VA will not be responsible for any costs incurred for attending the Industry Day Conference. The purpose of the Industry Day Conference is to provide preliminary information on the VA???s anticipated technical requirements, business/contract considerations, acquisition approach(s) being considered by the VA, and small business participation, including subcontracting opportunities. The Industry Day Conference will also provide an opportunity for contractors to ask questions and provide an opportunity for interested firms to network with each other. The VA???s presentation materials will be provided via email to registered attendees prior to the conference. Participants are reminded to bring copies of the presentation with them since the VA will not provide paper copies at the conference. Industry Day Conference agenda and map/directions will be provided at www.va.gov/FLITE. This announcement is not a request for proposal and in no way commits the Government to award a contract(s). No solicitations exist at this time. All questions regarding the Industry Day Conference should be directed in writing via email to Cory Price at cory.price@va.gov.
