KB Configuration

Department/Agency Level

DSI will customize a generic DSI knowledge base (e.g., FAR-based) or a newly-developed KB to incorporate department or agency-specific policies, regulations, and practices (e.g., the agency's FAR supplement).  DSI will work with representatives from the department or agency to identify the appropriate policies, regulations, and practices and determine how they will be implemented within the knowledgebase.  Typically, this analysis effort will involve several meetings with user groups and decision-makers.

Local Level

DSI will further customize a department/agency knowledge base by incorporating local (i.e., subagency or "below the supplement level") policies, regulations, and practices.  DSI will work with representatives from the department or agency to identify local policies, regulations, and practices and determine how they will be implemented within the knowledgebase.  The method for this analysis will vary based upon the size and complexity of local policies.

New KB

DSI will establish a new knowledgebase for clients who would like to use DSI's products to support processes beyond FAR-based contracting.
