Overview
Trilogy has supported the Data Governance Council (DGC) as part of the EDMSS project in two essential task areas: Authoritative Data Source (ADS) Analysis and Data Quality Analysis. These analyses have addressed four key questions: where the data is coming from, what the data means, what the Authoritative Data Source (ADS) is, and how well the data in the ADS can be trusted. Trilogy resources developed the adopted methodology to answer these questions, played a vital role in DCG’s communication workstream, and also provided subject matter expertise in the pilot of the ADS Data Management Implementation Plan.

Approach
Trilogy’s experienced team of data analysts developed methodologies to be applied to DGC-approved subject areas which involved identification of systems and underlying data stores, verification and remediation of any gaps in the metadata of identified systems in the VA Enterprise Architecture Repository (VEAR), scoring for component completeness, data stewardship and monitoring, developing dashboards to communicate ADS Data Quality metrics to all Data Governance and ADS Stakeholders, and developing conceptual, logical, system interface, and physical data models for identified systems.

Results
The methodologies developed by Trilogy, combined with its expertise and data metrics communication support, have made a lasting impact on the ongoing quality of data analysis by DGC and already seen use on several high-priority VA initiatives including FMBT and Vet360.

Overview
Trilogy supported the implementation of SAP, Federal Financial Management Initiative (FMMI), at the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) by providing multiple subject matter experts for the data migration from multiple instances of CGI Federal’s Federal Financial System (FFS) and multiple subsidiary systems. Trilogy’s expertise was essential to the design and development of end-to-end conversion processes, the execution of those processes in numerous testing, QA, and production environments, supporting system and user acceptance testing, and coordinating production cutover activities. Trilogy team members were called on to provide its data migration expertise to drive the critical path data conversion task to completion through each of its four deployments to 28 USDA agencies.

Approach
Trilogy Federal was integral in refining the overall data migration strategy to ensure accuracy and completeness of migrated data. This included identifying innovative alternatives to planned conversions that proved to be roadblocks to successful migration and on-time delivery, designing and developing end-to-end conversion processes extracting and transforming data from CGI Federal’s Federal Financial System (FFS) and other subsidiary systems and loading selected data to FMMI, developing and maintaining the master data crosswalk utility. Trilogy Federal was frequently relied upon to brief USDA leadership on data migration status and issues and played a key role in successful high-volume cutovers.

Results
Trilogy played a lead role in executing this large-scale data conversion initiative in a multiple-deployment/multiple-agency environment and achieved on-time go-lives for each deployment and 100 percent of FFS balances by Fund, Budget Year, and GL Account reconciled to FMMI to the penny for all 28 agencies migrated to FMMI.

Overview
Trilogy Federal has lead efforts for OEI to implement a Business Architecture (BA) with the short-term goal of supporting VA’s Modernization Effort, as well as the long-term goal of maturing VA’s Strategic Operating Model (SOM), which includes developing Business Architecture framework, content, and supporting analytics that will inform planning, programming, budgeting, and execution decision making processes. The architecture content areas developed and integrated into the BA include Strategic, Business, Programs/Budgets, IT Portfolio Investments and Systems, Risk, Performance, Statutory and Regulatory Requirements, Organizational, Process, and Resources.

Approach
Trilogy’s development of this Business Architecture has included developing a VA-wide Concept of Operations for Business Architecture and associated governance, developing logical, conceptual and physical data models for the Business Architecture, implementing the Business Architecture physical model, and developing analytics for SOM decision making processes that pull from the Business Architecture physical model. Trilogy has facilitated workshops with stakeholders from across VA to develop and refine an enterprise Business Reference Model that reflects the activities performed by all Administrations and staff offices. We also worked with stakeholders across the department to integrate enterprise content into the VA BA, including performance, risk, audit findings, organizations, budget programs, strategic priorities, billets, IT systems, and IT investments. Trilogy created architectural views and related data analytics that directly support resource prioritizations for OEI’s Mission Requirement and Mission Gap development during VA’s annual planning prioritization process, PA&E’s annual programming process, OI&Ts IT Enterprise Roadmap, and ITRM’s IT budget formulation and Multi-Year Planning processes for IT investments.

Results
The Business Architecture developed by Trilogy successfully provides analytics that enable VA to fully achieve the strategic goals and objectives defined in VA’s current and future strategic plans, including analytics associated with planning priorities, material and non-material programming requirements, and IT material requirements for Capital Planning and Investment Control (CPIC) that lead to streamlined technical solutions and elimination of redundant functions and processes that lead to more efficient and effective delivery of benefits and services to Veterans.

Overview

Trilogy administered the Veteran’s Health Administration (VHA) Chief Strategy Office (CSO) Survey of Veteran Enrollees’ Health and Use of Health Care (Survey of Enrollees), which collects data annually on enrolled Veterans’ health status, insurance coverage, use of VA and non-VA health services and programs, and other factors that influence use of health care. Survey of Enrollees data is used to inform VHA projections of enrollment, utilization, and expenditures, as well as a variety of high level VHA budget and policy-related analyses.

Approach

Trilogy applied the highest research standards to develop, design, implement, and summarize the multi-modal, representative Survey of Enrollees. This included sample design and allocation; preparing, printing, and mailing survey correspondences to identified samples; staffing, training, and managing the Survey of Enrollee Help Center; data collection and statistical analysis, including weighting adjustments; and developing reports, dashboards, and analyses that provide VHA with statistically valid, policy-ready data.

Results

Amidst declining survey response rates, Trilogy successfully administered the Survey of Enrollees for four years, surpassing the overarching survey goal of collecting 42,000 responses, as well as all market- and strata- specific targets, on schedule every year. Our work provided VHA with meaningful data, representative of the target population, so VHA CSO, VISN strategic planners, and program office directors can better anticipate the health care needs of all enrolled Veterans and provide improved programs and services to those who need them.

Overview
The federal government allocates over $10 billion a year to provide education benefits for service members and Veterans. This project studies the outcome measures of the VBA Education Service (EDU), which invests annually to support these benefit programs. Our team assists EDU in selecting the required data, assessing the data quality, merging, analyzing, curating, and loading the data into a ‘clean’ repository to generate metrics that help EDU assess VA return on investment (ROI).

Approach
In order to meet the challenges of this complex and impactful project, Trilogy has deployed a full spectrum of analytic services and tools. This includes conducting institutional research, analyzing existing data sources to identify target ROI data and any related data quality issues, developing methods to ensure these issues are remediated prior to loading, loading curated data into the ROI repository, creating analytic algorithms to analyze the ROI data, and providing detailed reporting of our findings. This has led to our deployment of DataOps for data integration and analytical output velocity without sacrificing quality, automating existing pipelines (API/RPA) for data calls/retrievals (using VS Code/Microsoft SQL Management Studio/Oracle SQL Developer) and utilizing GitHub for code configuration management, and performing offline development in open-source environments (such as Python and R Studio) for analytical scripts and advanced modeling (ML) for tasks such as parsing manually entered data that has been incorrectly entered to synthesize and align the data points for analytical reporting. Our team has also created procedures for the operation of the ETL and database, published an Operations Manual, and created a Configuration Tool Manual.

Outcomes
The tools and procedures Trilogy has developed give VA EDU complete transparency into the operational details of GI Bill Outcome Measures program while also providing clear and comprehensive decision-making support to advance the program. This support enables data-driven improvements to policies and claims procedures surrounding GI Bill benefits as well as develop targeted federal approaches for Veterans, service members, and their families to see the greatest value of their GI Bill benefits.

Both organizations’ employees now have more effective tools, processes, and training to help VA staff better deliver essential, earned benefits to the Veterans they serve.

Overview

Trilogy operated as a system integrator for VA’s Financial Management and Business Transformation (FMBT) initiative. The program is designed to modernize VA’s financial and acquisition management systems with transformative business processes and capabilities that enable VA to meet financial management legislation objectives and directives through a solution called Integrated Financial and Acquisitions Management System (iFAMS), a custom implementation of Momentum Financials.

Approach

Trilogy supported the VA’s migration to the Momentum cloud solution, implemented as VA’s Integrated Financial and Management System (iFAMS). As part of this effort, Trilogy enabled VA to leverage the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) to effectively deploy and operationalize the new solution. Trilogy provided comprehensive operations and maintenance (O&M), configuration management, requirements management, and organizational change management (OCM) services—ensuring disciplined execution and smooth adoption across the program. As a result, VA has realized increased operational efficiency, productivity, agility, and flexibility through a modern, cloud-based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) platform.

Results

As a result of Trilogy’s support in transitioning to a modern, cloud-based ERP solution, VA administrations have already realized measurable improvements in transparency, accuracy, timeliness, and reliability of financial information across multiple departments. Trilogy has played a critical role in seven successful iFAMS implementations, enabling the phased transition of diverse VA user communities through carefully planned and executed deployment waves. These deployment waves have included the National Cemetery Administration (NCA), Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA), Veterans Health Administration (VHA), and VA Staff Offices. Trilogy’s contributions have been formally recognized and highly valued by VA as it continues its transition from the legacy Financial Management System (FMS) to iFAMS.

Overview
Both the SSVF and GPD offer communities and VA medical facilities ways to assist homeless Veterans with housing and services. Program designs are diverse, ranging from transitional housing projects and apartment-style transitional housing to service centers offering outreach and supportive services. Trilogy Federal provides critical support for both initiatives by performing financial and operational fitness audit (FOFA) reviews in coordination with the Office of Business Oversight (OBO) for over 75 grantee locations, ensuring that they’re run responsibly and sustainably for the program duration. Trilogy also identifies inconsistencies, develops robust risk assessment tools, and identifies areas of improvement to allow for more efficient financial management of each site.
