Under the terms of the contract, AFS will help the DOC
consolidate its core finance, acquisition, property, enterprise
data warehouse and other business systems into a commercial
software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform in a hosted environment. The
consolidated platform, supported with data warehouse and business
intelligence solutions, will increase the DOC’s visibility into its
enterprise-wide financial activities.
“The Department of Commerce’s plan to modernize its business
systems enables the agency to gain a more complete picture of its
budget and spending trends and improve financial decision-making,”
said John Goodman, Chief Executive Officer, Accenture Federal
Services. “We’re delighted to support them using proven commercial
platforms to consolidate their business and back office
applications into a single suite of systems.”
The centralized customer-centered approach to business systems
modernization will enable the DOC to consolidate its
enterprise-wide data while also enabling its finance data users to
delve deeper into real-time financial analysis, including trend and
root cause analysis.
“AFS is honored to continue our relationship with the Department
of Commerce to modernize its Business Application Solutions,” said
Scott Dowling, BAS managing director with Accenture Federal
Services. “Through the use of human centered design, DOC can create
a consensus-building environment and achieve operational
efficiencies across the department. This will ultimately help DOC
reduce operation redundancies, simplify administrative functions
and modernize its data platform while meeting OMB
requirements.”
Under the contract, DOC will use Accenture Federal Service’s
FedRamp solutions, including Accenture Federal Cloud ERP (AFCE),
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) and the Accenture Insights
Platform (AIP). AFS has supported Commerce since the early 2000s,
doing work for the agency in analytics, AI, cyber security, digital
transformation, finance operations, and other business
functions.
