[State Entity Name] Office of MN.IT Services @ Revenue Department [Description of Work] F5 GenTax Application The Department of Revenue desires that performance, availability, reliability and security be enhanced for the GenTax application, (the main consolidated or integrated tax processing application), specifically any taxpayer facing access or function for connecting to the tax application. Enhancements need to be in place before January, 2014 which is the next income tax filing season. To achieve this end, MN.IT Services @ Revenue procured F5 networking and security devices for installation at the Stassen Building and the out-of-state disaster recovery site. Eighty hours of contracting services were part of the initial purchase of the F5 device and used to demonstrate and confirm the use of the F5 device and to set an example for MN.IT @ Revenue Network Engineers to continue the migration of applications over to the networking and security device. These services have been successfully completed by the F5 vendor. Due to the condensed timeframe for the successful implementation, MN.IT @ Revenue requires on-site and on-call 3rd party engineering services from the F5 vendor to assist in resolving technical installation and configuration issues as they arise, especially during the tax filing season if any should arise.
