Web-based Integrated Financial Managment Information System (WEBIFMIS) and Grants Payment and Reporting System (PARS)

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)has a requirement for sustainment support services for the Web-based Integrated Financial Management Information System (WEBIFMIS) and the Grants Payment and Reporting System (PARS). WEBIFMIS is FEMA's current financial management system and has extensive online capabilities that allow for the recording of various financial events and transactions. PARS is a web-based JAVA Enterprise Edition application that allows grantees to register, request grant payments, and submit the required quarterly Federal Financial Report (FFR) online. WEBIFMIS is a proprietary Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) software package which is owned and licensed Digital Systems Group. WEBIFMIS is the core financial system for FEMA. FEMA's Financial Systems Modernization (FSM) initiative will replace WEBIFMIS with a financial management system compliant with the DHS FSM initiative. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is planning to establish a Strategic Sourcing Software license vehicle for Department-wide use. FEMA is currently working with the DHS Joint Program Management Office (JPMO) and FEMA's FSM Program Management Office (PMO) is working collaboratively to modernize and replace WEBIFMIS and PARS. Transition to a new financial management solution is scheduled for FY2023 and will be competed. However, there is a continuous requirement for WEBIFMIS and PARS support until transition to a new application occurs.
