One of the Enterprise Architecture (EA)/Enterprise Standards Profile (ESP) approved ETL tools is the Informatica commercial off the shelf (COTS) suite of tools. The Informatica tool suite is used for data integration to read data from a variety of sources, transform data for ingestion by downstream systems, and write data to target systems both on-premises and in the Cloud. Informatica is used by multiple modernization projects including the Enterprise Data Platform (EDP), Enterprise Case Management (ECM), Information Return Modernization (IRMod), Advanced Analytics Platform (AAP), Custodial Account Data Engine 2 (CADE2), Return Review Program (RRP), and Programs initiated under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and mapped to the Strategic Operating Plan. The EIP supports more than 20+ IRS systems that provide numerous business functions and data capabilities to multiple areas within the IRS. Without EIP, individual instances of COTS or custom-coded data integration solutions would be redundantly deployed throughout the agency resulting in a waste of resources including money, time, hardware, software, and personnel. The IRS is seeking Informatica Professional Services or an authorized reseller for Informatica Professional Services. As an authorized reseller for Informatica Professional Services, the Contractor will assist the IRS in supporting, expanding, and modernizing the EIP to its full production capabilities based on IRS requirements.
