HUD FHEO IT Systems Support Services

NARTech leads technical support services for HUD Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO) IT systems, including the HUD Enforcement Management System (HEMS), FHIP Performance Tracking, Fair Housing Discrimination Complaints (903 form) submissions, FHEO Program Compliance Data Visualization, FHEO SharePoint and internal/external web sites. Our work covers all application development and maintenance lifecycle phases, including definition, build, testing, deployment, operations, and maintenance. Recently, NARTech has extended the functionality of HEMS with the Site-and-Neighborhood-Standards (SNS) Checklist module using the FormIO tool as a low-code solution, reducing the implementation time for this 25+ page form from 6 months to 6 weeks without any additional labor or licensing costs. We are assisting the HUD FHEO in defining and implementing AI-based data analytics and operational improvement solutions. We use Scalable Agile Framework (SAFe) integrated with DevSecOps and our High Maturity CMMI-Development Level 5 practices for high-quality product delivery. Since NARTech’s return on this support contract, the HEMS application is back to having zero defect releases!

HUD Section 3 Performance Evaluation and Registry System (SPEARS)

NARTech performs design, development, system maintenance, and restored operations of the SPEARS application that enables FHEO staff to oversee and monitor Section 3 outcomes for more than 5,000 direct recipients of HUD funding, facilitate online electronic submission of the HUD 60002 form by covered HUD grantees. We also implemented the Section 3 Business Registry. NARTech integrated SPEARS with the GSA Login.gov and HUD Secure System Portal for user authentication / authorization and with the Financial Management System (Financial DataMart - FDM) to query financial disbursement data for HUD grants subject to the Section 3 rule to promote economic opportunity for HUD-assisted residents.

EPA Data Act

EPA’s Office of Technology Solutions (OTS), in alignment with the Federally-mandated Data Act, is consolidating financial, procurement, and grants data from three existing EPA systems into a new data quality management environment called the Data Act Evaluation and Approval Repository (DEAR). For EPA OTS, NARTech supported several high priority projects related to the Data Act Implementation, as well as the development, deployment, testing, functional analysis, migration, and documentation of several EPA Chief Financial Officer (CFO) IT systems and modernization initiatives.
