Summit2Sea Consulting has won a potential five-year, $28 million contract to update tools the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency uses to manage financial activities.
The company said Monday it will integrate the Treasury Internet Payment Platform as well as Hyperion budget formulation and governance, risk management and compliance applications into DARPA’s enterprise resource planning system.
Summit2Sea will also provide its expertise on Oracle‘s ERP system, interfaces, business systems architecture, software development, database administration, applications help desk and project management to the agency.
Bryan Eckle, senior managing consultant at Summit2Sea, said the company aims to help DARPA update the agency’s financial management functions and simplify business operations.
The company will also work to automate the agency’s procure-to-pay process under the contract.
DARPA manages its financial operations with the Defense Agencies Initiative system that is based on Oracle-built ERP and business intelligence platforms.
