CSRA has obtained authorization from the U.S. Navy to test a new integrated pay and personnel system for the service branch on Amazon Web Services‘ cloud platform.
The Interim Authorization to Test permits CSRA to assess the viability and flexibility of running a commercial off-the-shelf human resource management platform on AWS cloud, CSRA said Wednesday.
The COTS HRM system will also be tested against security controls of the Defense Department and the National Institute of Standards and Technology, including common access card authentication.
CSRA added the test seeks to pave the way for the Navy’s adoption of a next-generation, cloud-based digital environment.
The company supports the current Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System and the service branch’s efforts to integrate other legacy HR systems into the NSIPS baseline.
