Description: The purpose of this requirement is to provide support services for the Business Technology Support (BTS) group. BTS is the central Information Technology (IT) support group for the Federal Occupational Health (FOH) service, and is a branch of the FOH Administration and Resource Management (ARM) Division. FOH is an element of the Program Support Center (PSC), which is a StaffDiv of the Assistant Secretary for Administration (ASA), which, in turn, is an element of the federal Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS). FOH provides health consultation, and stimulates the development of improved occupational health and safety programs throughout the Federal government. The FOH mission is to improve the health, safety, and productivity of the Federal workforce. FOH assists Federal managers in establishing occupational health services for Federal employees to comply with mandated and voluntary occupational health standards; to monitor environmental hazards for special classes of employees; to counsel employees at physical or emotional risk from alcoholism, drug abuse, stress, or other job-related factors; to maintain a drug-free workplace; and to promote employee wellness and physical fitness. FOH is a 100% reimbursable activity; FOH receives no appropriated Federal funds and is entirely funded from revenue received from services provided to other Federal agencies, under interagency agreements (IAAs) issued under the Economy Act or other enabling legislation. FOH markets its services and consultations to customers, based on value and quality of product and is accountable to its customers for best value performance. FOH operates in an entrepreneurial business environment, competing with other public and private sector organizations for the Government’s business. FOH serves over 425 federal agencies through over 3,000 IAAs. To provide this service, FOH requires the ability to operate an information technology infrastructure that allows their staff and customers to securely exchange information electronically and to collaborate efficiently. For example, the Clinical product line provides services in over 400 health centers and many additional mobile clinics and private providers throughout the country. Consequently, one requirement is that staff be able to gain secure access to web-based applications to efficiently and reliably capture services provided. FOH and Customer managers need ongoing information about progress work to date, to ensure that they are within expectations. FOH customers expect to gain an understanding of what they are receiving and how it contributes to the efficiency of operations. The objective is to provide for effective communications and flexible systems that allow for the management of agreements and the supporting services. The intent is that these will aid in management of the revenue stream for the entire organization. The Mission of the BTS group is to provide a reliable IT infrastructure that supports mandated requirements and efficiently allows FOH staff to be as competitive as possible in the performance of their work. FOH provides support to approximately 3,000 users. This support is provided to FOH headquarters and administrative staff, customers, and the following FOH operational groups: Clinical Services, Employee Assistance Program and Environmental Health Services 17.
