Plott, Contracting Officer (202) 874-5040, Boyd Greene, Contract Specialist (202) 874-5040 The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), a Bureau in the Treasury Department requires a contractor to provide proven "off-the-shelf" software to meet the OCC's time, travel, and leave database requirements. The OCC supervises approximately 2,700 national banks and 66 federal branches and agencies of foreign banks in the U.S. staffing approximately 3,300 employees, 2,000 of which are bank examiners located at remote sites. The software product must be user friendly and consist of an automated form that contains time, travel expense, and leave fields. Users must be able to enter time, travel, and leave data on a daily, weekly or bi-weekly basis. Leave data must be maintained within government guidelines. Travel and time fields must also fall within specific ranges designated by OCC. Forms will be sent electronically to supervisors and maintained by a central relational database. The software must be able to perform data operations on time, travel, and expense functions as well as operations on subfunctions within the time, travel, and expense parameters. Upon submission, the data must be recorded in the database which must provide standard reports, ad hoc inquiries, and extract time entry information. The information must then be transmitted to the National Finance Center (NFC) in New Orleans in NFC's data format. Minimally, the software must also provide the following: 1) support for BANYAN Vines and Computer Associates Accounts Payable software; 2) remote dial-in capability; 3) single entry PC screen; 4) on-screen help for employees, 5) ability for supervisor to return electronic time card to employee for modifications, allowing employee to resubmit; 6) ability to correct prior pay periods; 7) ability to provide "front-end" edits, validating employee social security numbers, project codes, bank charter numbers, etc.; 8) ability to "flag" a bi-weekly record in order for travel expenses etc. not to be paid more than once; 9) ability to calculate mileage dollar amount upon user entry of miles traveled; and 10) accurate processing of date data (including, but not limited to, calculating, comparing, and sequencing) from, into, and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, including leap year calculations; and 11) security measures against unauthorized use. Modifications to existing software may be required to meet OCC's specifications. Software containing "time-clock" sign-on mechanisms are NOT acceptable. The OCC will evaluate past performance of each proposing company, as well as the qualifications, knowledge, and work experience of the persons proposed to fill the key positions of the contract. Substitutions for the project manager and team members will not be allowed once the evaluation process begins, unless the Contracting Officer determines that is in the best interest of the Government to allow a substitution. The proposed contract will be a firm fixed price contract. Solicitation CC-97-R-0003 is anticipated to be released by the middle of April 1997. All requestors must certify that they have off-the-shelf software that meets OCC's minimum requirements as listed in this synopsis. Any requestor that does not make the required certification will not be provided with a copy of the solicitation. All requests for a copy of the solicitation must be made in writing, addressed to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Administrator of National Banks, Acquisition Services, (4-13), 250 E St., SW, Washington, DC 20219, Attention: John P.
