Computer/Electronic Accommodations Program (CAP)

Abstract

The Computer/Electronic Accommodations Program (CAP) Portal has been certified as a Defense Business System (DBS). This project helped CAP obtain and maintain an optimized and certified DBS that executes data collection, records management, and reporting accountability for all stakeholders. In order to enhance areas of program data-tracking capabilities and stabilize the environment for future operations, CAP required modernization of the CAP Portal. The CAP Portal has pages/controls that have accumulated up to 7,000 lines of code, making it difficult to ensure the reliability of any updates made to the system which has undergone over 500 change requests since its launch. There were components and functionality that were no longer being utilized and others needed. The current codebase utilized an outdated framework that was difficult to maintain. The CAP Modernization Project implemented a .NET Model View Controller (MVC) framework to separate the business, display and input layers of the code. Restructuring CAP Portal was necessary to ensure flexibility and reliability. As a result of an outdated framework, the current CAP Portal is becoming increasingly challenging to maintain and less reliable when making updates. The CAP Modernization Project provided a restructured database for CAP Portal with an updated codebase to provide a solid foundation that supports CAP’s current structure and business processes while also increasing flexibility for future enhancements and efficiencies. All aspects of the CAP Portal were enhanced by this project, which provided a streamlined foundation on which to incorporate new internal processing workflow entitled ONE CAP. It provided the ability to implement new processes that reflect the current organization, roles, responsibilities, tasks and specific workflow and assignments. The modernization of technology ensured full integration of the new internal operating model.
