GSA Announces BAAR Bid Opening

WASHINGTON –The U. S. General Services Administration (GSA) today invited interested parties to compete for a project to replace the agency’s Billing and Accounts Receivable (BAAR) system.

GSA’s Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) also posted a Request for Quotation (RFQ) on the agency’s eBuy web site for a 45-day period. Solicitations and/or questions related to the RFQ may be submitted through 2 PM June 12, 2008. The RFQ is for a base period of three years and one two-year option period.

The new system will establish standard accounting business processes across GSA’s financial management enterprise architecture, and produce bills for GSA’s many business lines in large volumes. The solution will address federal compliance issues required by Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), Federal Financial Management Improvement Act (FFMIA), Financial Management Enterprise Architecture (FMEA), and other federal rules and regulations to support GSA’s capabilities as a Financial Management Line of Business (FMLOB).

For more information on the RFQ, please visit http://www.ebuy.gsa.gov.
