This timeline shows the progression of the SPDW project:

Project Start - Sept 2020

After obtaining project approval from FSA-PHSC and GSA IT leadership the SmartPay project began during Sept 2020.

Phase 1 - Go Live May 2021

Phase 1 of the SPDW modernization began in September 2020 to move the SPDW portal and users from on premise servers to the FCS EBTA and FCS data environments. After 9 months of development, testing, data migration, UAT and obtaining an ATO, the SPDW phase 1 was successfully deployed into production.

Phase 2 - Go Live February 2022

Phase 2 of the SPDW modernization followed the successful deployment of phase 1. Some of the important/key features implemented with phase 2 were migration of the staging data load processes, implementation of Smartpay 2 reports and dashboards, migration of the processing of raw data for aggregations, warehousing and creation of various data marts from on-prem servers to FCS data environment.

Future/Long-Term Plans

Implementation of Valut KMS and Spark data lake (on-prem) to manage Smartpay 2 data which contains PCI and PII elements. Continue collaboration with FCS data and EBTA teams to implement key management, file transfer, Tableau integration with Okta/MFA to enhance current offerings streamlining automation and data processing.
