This section discusses the activities the CSEP will perform and oversee to ensure it effectively guides project staffs’ efforts toward the fulfillment of all objectives and requirements. The list of project activities includes: Project Initiation and Management developing project management plans, – updating, and monitoring the project schedule; and status reporting. Development and Operations Hardware/Software planning and installing – development hardware and software, and planning for operations hardware and software. System Requirements and Design defining the technical approach, developing – the functional and technical detailed system designs, and evaluating the code base. Development/Modification/Conversion of System Software Code developing, – modifying, and converting child support system software; and installing operations hardware and software. Data Conversion planning for the legacy conversion, converting the data, and – testing the data conversion. Testing and Acceptance testing the hardware and software (e.g., system testing, – integration testing, and regression testing; performance and load “smoke”, testing; and user acceptance testing). Training Staff training operational readiness, end users, and site support staff. – System Implementation converting data for rollouts, decommissioning the child – support portion of NOMADS (the old system), and rolling out the pilot region and all regions. Initial Maintenance and Operation maintaining and operating the system during – system warranty. System Certification planning and preparing for federal system certification. – Transition for State Maintenance training state technical and help desk staff for – long-term maintenance and operation of the new system. Project Closeout planning for project closeout to ensure all artifacts are – archived, vendors are released, and accounts are settled. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS VENDOR RESPONSE TO SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS The Implementation Contractor will prepare the RTM deliverable to document each of the baseline requirements, the changes that adjusted or expanded the requirements, the system components that implemented each requirement and the tests that verified them.
