2. Project 1: The Department of National Defence (DND) – RPSR Application” Revised Pay System for
the Reserves” and HRMS “Human Resources Management System”
The Revised Pay System for the Reserves (RPSR) is a financial business application system that
provides payroll functions and interfaces with the defined benefit pension functions for the Canadian
Forces Reserves. Currently the RPSR project maintains a team of up to 23 FTE team members and is
valued at approximately $25 million. The first iteration of the RPSR application was built in 1995. IBM
built and delivered RPSR in the initial three-year period and has performed a variety of Application
Management Services since that time. Since its initial deployment, the RPSR application has
undergone a number of major enhancements under the ongoing RPSR maintenance contract. Some
of these enhancements include centralization of RPSR from a distributed system to a central
client/server web based application, the inclusion of payroll functionality for civilian roles such as the
Cadet organization, the addition of pension functionality and an interface to the military compensation
pension module, as well as the development of interfaces with several other major DND and external
systems, such as HRMS, SPS, EMAA and DRMIS. IBM currently provides a full suite of services
including project management, release management, application architecting, application analysis and
development (Oracle PL/SQL backend and Java/Flash frontend), systems integration testing, network
support and technical writing. The application is maintained through quarterly releases which can
include application maintenance (break/fix), minor and major enhancements, and new development.
RPSR has utilized a number of different technologies over the years. Technologies currently used in
the system include Oracle 11g relational database management server, IBM Websphere Application
server, PowerBuilder, COBOL, Java, Flash, PL/PDF, FTP and XML. Maintenance and Systems
Integration testing activities are conducted at an IBM site while User Acceptance testing is conducted
at a DND facility maintained by IBM. The RPSR project was CMMI level 2 certified in 2004 and
continues to maintain those QA and project management processes.
