The National Business Center's Procurement Systems Division is now supporting a new procurement system for its customers. Momentum Acquisitions, a sub-system of the Momentum Financials application, is the next generation of the Interior Department Electronic Acquisition System - Procurement Desktop (IDEAS-PD). The Procurement Systems Division is in the process of converting the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) from IDEAS-PD to Momentum Acquisitions and is scheduled to live in April 2004. Additionally, the Procurement Systems Division is just beginning the implementation of Momentum Acquisitions at the Architect of the Capitol (AOC), a current Momentum Financials customer. The AOC is scheduled to go live with Acquisitions November 2004.
Since Momentum Acquisitions is a sub-system of Momentum Financials, it is a completely integrated, web-based application with robust procurement functionality. The complete integration means users will no longer have to worry about an interface or maintaining two separate financial and procurement systems. The functionality of Momentum Acquisitions includes acquisition planning, requisitioning, workload management, solicitations, offer evaluations, awards, contract management, and contract closeout. Users will have the ability to query the system to access historical procurement information, create reports, and customize the printing layout of their documents. Users will also have the ability to track the complete history of a transaction from the initial requisition through award and payment in a single system.
The Procurement Systems Division is looking forward to the challenge of supporting a new system that is built using state of the art technology.
