(8) Provide a brief summary and justification for this investment, including a brief description of how this closes a gap in part or in whole an identified agency performance gap: (2500 Char Max)
The Financial Accounting System (FAS) is the main tool NSF staff utilizes to monitor, control, and execute the management and financial accountability of approximately 20,000 active awards with 2000+ external grantees. The FAS is an on-line real time system is the primary vehicle for managing all funding allocated to the NSF. A central transaction management procedure called the "post-routine" represents the core of the system, handling the full spectrum of financial transaction processing, accounts maintenance, transaction history, and rules processing. This procedure processes any financial request, whether generated from within the Financial System itself or by an external system. The FAS is extensively integrated with all of NSF's core business systems including the e-Jacket, Proposal and Reviewer System, the Awards System, Guest Travel System, and the FastLane System in support of Grants management. NSF's accounting and financial systems staff created a data warehousing environment with the ability to produce our financial statements including the Closing Package statements, generate automated closing entries and in produce the SGL Tie points reports. In FY06, NSF implemented a near real-time interface between FAS and FedTraveler that
NSF FAS 1-3-07
1 of 18
FY08 Exhibit 300
includes evaluation of funds availability and funds obligation. NSF expects the same type of data exchanges with other externally provided cross-services. The e-Learning and e-Procurement /FAS interfaces are scheduled to be implemented in FY 2007. The FAS will remain in a steady-state phase in the FY05-FY10 timeframe. NSF will be approaching its future financial system requirements as an integral part of its grant process. NSF will conduct an integrated review of the GMLOB/FMLOB solution in 2007. If that solution is determined to not be feasible, NSF will analyze the FMLOB Shared Service Provider (SSP) options in 2008. If necessary, NSF will conduct a Business Case Feasibility Study for the FMLOB solution in 2009. This plan allows the NSF to take advantage of the results/findings of the GMLOB process in becoming a SSP to more fully define our financial requirements. NSF anticipates that if a conversion is necessary it will substantially impact NSF Grantees and will begin in 2010. The current FAS will remain in steady-state maintenance until the conversion is complete. Any decisions NSF makes regarding the future financial system modernization will support the President's Management Agenda.

(2) If earned value is not required or will not be a contract requirement for any of the contracts or
task orders above, explain why:
The contract has a requirement to utilize earned value management (EVM) for tasks/projects designated as new development or "Development/Modernization/Enhancements (DME)." FAS is in Steady State and its maintenance activities are exempt from EVM at this time per OMB Guidance.
(3) Do the contracts ensure Section 508 compliance? yes Section 508 Compliance Explanation: The system was reviewed and modified, as needed, in 2001 for Section 508 compliance. The FAS consists of an end-user GUI and back-end software programs. Only the end-user GUI is used by users; therefore only changes to it would affect Section 508 compliance. While the majority of maintenance changes are to the back-end software, when the GUI is affected, NSF staff review each maintenance change for Section 508 compliance before the change is implemented.

Section D: Performance Information (All Capital Assets)
In order to successfully address this area of the exhibit 300, performance goals must be provided for the agency and be linked to the annual performance plan. The investment must discuss the agency's mission and strategic goals, and performance measures must be provided. These goals need to map to the gap in the agency's strategic goals and objectives this investment is designed to fill. They are the internal and external performance benefits this investment is expected to deliver to the agency (e.g., improve efficiency by 60 percent, increase citizen participation by 300 percent a year to achieve an overall citizen participation rate of 75 percent by FY 2xxx, etc.). The goals must be clearly measurable investment outcomes, and if applicable, investment outputs. They do not include the completion date of the module, milestones, or investment, or general goals, such as, significant, better, improved that do not have a quantitative or qualitative measure.
Agencies must use Table 1 below for reporting performance goals and measures for all non-IT investments and for existing IT investments that were initiated prior to FY 2005. The table can be extended to include measures for years beyond FY 2006.

Section E: Security and Privacy (IT Capital Assets Only)
In order to successfully address this area of the business case, each question below must be answered at the system/application level, not at a program or agency level. Systems supporting this investment on the planning and operational systems security tables should match the systems on the privacy table below. Systems on the Operational Security Table must be included on your agency FISMA system inventory and should be easily referenced in the inventory (i.e., should use the same name or identifier).
All systems supporting and/or part of this investment should be included in the tables below, inclusive of both agency owned systems and contractor systems. For IT investments under development, security and privacy planning must proceed in parallel with the development of the system/s to ensure IT security and privacy requirements and costs are identified and incorporated into the overall lifecycle of the system/s.
Please respond to the questions below and verify the system owner took the following actions:
(1) Have the IT security costs for the system(s) been identified and integrated into the overall costs of the
investment: yes
(a) If "yes," provide the "Percentage IT Security" for the budget year: 14
(2) Is identifying and assessing security and privacy risks a part of the overall risk management effort for each system supporting or part of this investment. yes

(a) If "yes," have those weaknesses been incorporated into the agency's plan of action and milestone
process?
(6) Indicate whether an increase in IT security funding is requested to remediate IT security weaknesses? no
NSF FAS 1-3-07
9 of 18
FY08 Exhibit 300
(a) If "yes," specify the amount, a general description of the weakness, and how the funding request will remediate the weakness.
(7) How are contractor security procedures monitored, verified, and validated by the agency for
the contractor systems above?
NSF uses a range of methods to review the security of operations through contract requirements, project management oversight and review, certification and accreditation processes, IG independent reviews, proactive testing of controls through penetration testing and vulnerability scans to ensure services are adequately secure and meet the requirements of FISMA, OMB policy, NIST guidelines and NSF policy. The system is operated on-site by a team of contractors and NSF personnel with system administrators tightly controlling access to the systems. Only administrators with current need have access to the system, and strict code migration, quality control, and configuration management procedures prevent deployment of hostile or vulnerable software on the systems. Contractors are trained in the same security measures as NSF employees. All NSF employees and contract staff are required to complete an on-line security training class each year, including the rules of behavior. Background checks are done routinely as a part of the NSF contracting process, and IT security requirements are stated in the contracts statement of work. Contractor security procedures are monitored, verified, and validated by the agency in the same way as for government employees. Once on board, contractors are allowed access to the NSF systems based on their specific job requirements. Audit logs are also implemented to monitor operating system changes - these audit logs are reviewed by the system administrators. Additionally, roles and responsibilities are separated to the extent possible to allow for checks and balances in system management and multiple levels of oversight.

- No, because the system is
not a Privacy Act system of
records.
(c) Is there a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) that covers this system?
- Yes.
- No.
- No, because the system does not contain, process, or transmit personal identifying information.
- No, because even though it has personal identifying information, the system contains information solely about
federal employees and agency contractors.
(d) Is the PIA available to the public?
- Yes.
- No, because a PIA is not yet required to be completed at this time.
- No, because the PIA has not been prepared.
(f) Was a new or amended SORN published in FY2006?
NSF FAS 1-3-07
10 of 18
FY08 Exhibit 300
1. Yes, because this is a newly established Privacy Act system of records. 2. Yes, because the existing Privacy Act system of records was substantially revised in FY 06. 3. No, because the existing Privacy Act system of records was not substantially revised in FY 06. 4. No; the system is operational, but the SORN has not yet been published. 5. No, because the system is not a Privacy Act system of records.

a. Use existing SRM Components or identify as "NEW". A "NEW" component is one not already identified as a service component in the FEA SRM.
b. A reused component is one being funded by another investment, but being used by this investment. Rather than answer yes or no, identify the reused service component funded by the other investment and identify the other investment using the Unique Project Identifier (UPI) code from the OMB Ex 300 or Ex 53 submission.
c. 'Internal' reuse is within an agency. For example, one agency within a department is reusing a service component provided by another agency within the same department. 'External' reuse is one agency within a department reusing a service component provided by another agency in another department. A good example of this is an E-Gov initiatiye service being reused by multiple organizations across the federal government.
d. Please provide the percentage of the BY requested funding amount used for each service component listed in the table. If external, provide the funding level transferred to another agency to pay for the service.

The results of the OA recommend that the FAS continue to be used as the NSF's financial accounting
system for the next several years. The NSF is in the process of conducting a pilot project as a Grants
Management Line of Business provider. We plan to take advantage of the results/findings of the GMLOB
process in becoming an SSP to more fully define our financial requirements. This will allow the NSF to take
an integrated approach to both GMLOB & FMLOB in regards to the future of FAS and NSF's
financial system.
