The District is looking for a analytical technical resource to work in a team to develop requirements for a new system that will determine eligibility for health and public benefits, enroll individuals and families and case manage them for a range of agencies and services.  The resource will use the existing requirements documents include a software RFP, ‘As is Business Processes’, electronic document management workflow and other documents to establish the functional requirements.  Next the resource will hold workshops with District staff from Department of Human Services, and other agencies to update any changes in the requirements and/or to add ones that had not been documented.  Based on the information gathered the resource will work with other ITSA staff and requirements vendors to develop a procurement document for a vendor to implement the new system for the District of Columbia.
