The Electronic Repository of Security Requests (ERSR) Web-based automated information system has been developed and implemented to support the identification and authorization request processing for the Information Security Office. ERSR allows United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Farm Service Agency (FSA) Field Offices (State and County Offices) to submit electronic requests for identification or authorization (access control) additions, modifications and deletions to information system user accounts.
ERSR is based on object oriented programming and service oriented architecture concepts. The ERSR application is comprised of java classes and dynamic Java Server Pages. DB2 is used by ERSR as the relational database back-end. ERSR also links to several external databases via common business services, WebSphere Data Sources and URL connections as well as its own DB2 database. The hosting platform is a Windows environment and the communication protocol is TCP/IP. The application resides on the WebFarm in Kansas City.

The ERSR system shall be operational 99.5% of the time except for planned maintenance and non-ERSR application related problems (such as unplanned outages). The applicant will direct maintenance tasks with minimal guidance; final authority and major decisions shall rest with the NGS Government client.
