Business Analysis and Management Support Services (BAMSS)

Challenge

As it strives to protect the safety and soundness of our nation’s banking system, the FDIC faces an increasingly complex regulatory environment. To address these new challenges, the FDIC is developing more efficient and robust information technologies. The realization of these business enhancements requires a business partner with extensive technical expertise and strategic planning capabilities.

Solution

In 2006 the FDIC chose DRC to provide information technology support through the BAMSS program. From strategic planning to deployment, BAMSS supports the FDIC through all phases of development lifecycle. BAMSS provides the kind of technical support that promotes efficient development of enhanced business solutions. BAMSS also provides expertise with the Rational Unified Process (RUP), the FDIC's standard development methodology.

DRC is currently providing expertise in several project areas including:

IT strategic planning
Business process improvement
Regulatory change support
Requirements management
IT capital investment and planning
Defining and executing the software development lifecycle
IT portfolio, program and project management support
IT Enterprise Architecture program support
Internal Controls program support
Process and product QA support

Benefits/Achievements

Since its inception, BAMSS has had an impact across all lines of business within the FDIC. DRC has helped many of the FDIC divisions develop and adopt IT strategic planning. Many of the strategic plans developed by DRC have been published as best practices. DRC continues to enhance the BAMSS program by acquiring new staff and skills to provide the support to the FDIC today and its vision for the future.
