Avanco Awarded Contract for MIS Development for Army Corps of Engineers LA District

September 2006 | Mclean Virginia

Avanco was recently awarded a contract by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Los Angeles District to provide Requirements Definition, Design services and IT development support for a Project Management Database and Reporting System. The overall requirement for the Program and Project Management Database and Reports System is an improved storage, retrieval and reporting environment for Project Management information. Currently a MS Access system provides information utilized by Project Managers with information derived from many sources. The system, while providing a means to report project information, often contradicts USACE reports or provides erroneous information due to the manual nature of the system. The overall concept of this scope of work is to create an Oracle database, create a method to draw standard system information into the reporting environment, and develop reports and forms to enter data into the database if needed. The resulting system will provide reports that will retrieve and display the data in useful formats and in a consistent manner that will be available to the LA District and other Corps offices whenever needed via an intranet website.
