The NIH Business Intelligence System (NBIS) is a collaborative, enterprise-wide, business intelligence reporting system supporting the dynamic and diversified management needs of the NIH Institutes, Centers and the Office of the Director. It consolidates the legacy NIH Data Warehouse (DW) and numerous smaller systems, and offers technological updates designed to improve the reporting capabilities of NIH business systems. This consolidation integrates the query and reporting capabilities of NIH business systems into one, stand-alone, cohesive investment. The NBIS provides a major upgrade to the capabilities of the legacy DW. The NBIS is a robust business intelligence system which continuously gathers requirements to meet new and expanding NIH business management needs. It provides accurate, timely, business intelligence reports on NIH funding, human resources, acquisition & contracts, vendors, inventories, research activities and facilities, and other business areas essential to the management of NIH resources. The NBIS transforms data from disparate sources into a cohesive, consistent repository, and provides in-depth reporting tools and reports to define and organize this information. It is optimized for answering both current and historical business questions with easy extraction of data for report generation, exportation into data marts, or downloading into desktop spreadsheets. Users can run predefined queries and reports, as well as develop custom, ad-hoc queries and reports . The NBIS business areas are: Research Contracts and Grants -Acquisitions & Contracts t-NIH Executive Reporting -Procurement-Budget & Finance -Property-Calling Cards & Audio Conferencing - CATS-I-Core Financials- DCIS Reporting -Supply & Replenishment-Travel-Technology Transfer -Staff Training and Development-Human Resources. Funding supports government and contract staff, development and system maintenance, hardware, and software. In closing, the NBIS is the only enterprise business intelligence system available to effectively manage the diversified business reporting needs of the NIH community.

PERFORMANCE


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 (indicators) 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 measure.
Agencies must use the following table to report performance goals and measures for the major investment and use the Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Performance Reference Model (PRM). Map all Measurement Indicators to the corresponding Measurement Area and Measurement Grouping identified in the PRM. There should be at least one Measurement Indicator for each of the four different Measurement Areas (for each fiscal year). The PRM is available at www.egov.gov. The table can be extended to include performance measures for years beyond FY 2009.

In order to successfully address this area of the business case and capital asset plan you must ensure the investment is included in the agency's EA and Capital Planning and Investment Control (CPIC) process, and is mapped to and supports the FEA. You must also ensure the business case demonstrates the relationship between the investment and the business, performance, data, services, application, and technology layers of the agency's EA.
1. Is this investment included in your agency's target enterprise architecture?
yes
2. Is this investment included in the agency's EA Transition Strategy?
yes
2.a. If yes, provide the investment name as identified in the Transition Strategy provided in the agency's most recent annual EA Assessment.
NIH Business Intelligence System (NBIS)
3. Is this investment identified in a completed (contains a target architecture) and approved segment architecture?
no
4. Identify the service components funded by this major IT investment (e.g., knowledge management, content management, customer relationship management, etc.). Provide this information in the format of the following table. For detailed guidance regarding components, please refer to http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/.

Component: Use existing SRM Components or identify as NEW. A NEW component is one not already identified as a service component in the FEA SRM.

Reused Name and UPI: 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.

Internal or External Reuse?: 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 initiative service being reused by multiple organizations across the federal government.

Funding Percentage: 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.

PART TWO


RISK


You should perform a risk assessment during the early planning and initial concept phase of the investment's life-cycle, develop a risk-adjusted life-cycle cost estimate and a plan to eliminate, mitigate or manage risk, and be actively managing risk throughout the investment's life-cycle.

Answer the following questions to describe how you are managing investment risks.
1. Does the investment have a Risk Management Plan?
yes
1.a. If yes, what is the date of the plan?
2007-10-15
1.b. Has the Risk Management Plan been significantly changed since last year's submission to OMB?
no
3. Briefly describe how investment risks are reflected in the life cycle cost estimate and investment schedule:
NBIS employs a spiral development methodology to produce deliverables in small manageable products. This allows the project to be able to react to any risk in a real-time nature, quickly addressing and mitigating the risk. Once the risk has been mitigated the development continues through the next spiral. The NIH Business System (NBS) is the source system for the current phase of development of the NIH Business Intelligence System (NBIS). As each new NBS source system is released, the corresponding NBIS reporting business area is deployed. The NBIS development is scheduled through 2012 and beyond. NBIS risk is anticipated in the life cycle costs estimate and investment schedule only in the event of NBS source system schedule slippage. The prime contractor works under a performance based management contract. Prime contractor performance is monitored based on the quality and timeliness of pre-defined deliverables. The work is also monitored and managed using Earned Value Management techniques. Weekly leadership and bi-weekly team meetings are held to closely monitor project progress. Scope and schedule changes are determined when actual fiscal year funds are allocated. Contingency funds are managed at an enterprise systems level by the office of the NIH CIO.

COST & SCHEDULE


1. Does the earned value management system meet the criteria in ANSI/EIA Standard 748?
