    The document outlines comprehensive requirements for a Case Management System (CMS) designed for government agencies involved in federal RFPs, grants, and state/local RFPs. The CMS must manage the entire case lifecycle, including reporting, task management, investigation assignments, and monitoring. Key features include dynamic report updates, electronic redaction, supervisor review workflows, and the ability to link various reports. The system also emphasizes criminal organization management, detailed drug and non-drug evidence tracking with chain-of-custody, and integration with multiple external systems like NADDIS and EDW. Advanced analytics capabilities are required for data aggregation, visualization (e.g., maps, graphs, dashboards), and trend analysis. The CMS must operate in a secure, scalable cloud environment, meet stringent security standards (FedRAMP High, FISMA/FIPS/DOJ compliance, multi-factor authentication, encryption), and offer robust system administration for configuration, user management, and data migration. Support and training are also critical components, ensuring 24/7/365 access to knowledge portals and dedicated account management.
