Introduction


The Division of Banking in the Department of Regulatory Agencies is partnering with the Governor's Office of Information Technology (OIT) to modernize the primary system utilized by the division, the Banking Information Database System (BIDS).

Background


The Division of Banking:

• is responsible for the regulation of state chartered commercial banks, trust companies, and state licensed money transmitters;
• holds charter and license application hearings and issues rules and regulations affecting regulated institutions;
• staff conducts examinations of state chartered institutions and licensees;
• works closely with the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in the regulation of commercial banks and certain federally insured trust companies; and,
• is responsible for the enforcement of the Public Deposit Protection Act to protect public entity deposits held by state and national banks.

Project


The BIDS system manages details regarding banks, trust companies and money transmitters. The system was developed over the course of many years and consists of an Oracle database with a PowerBuilder client application. Staff within the division install the client application which connects to the central database. A web interface exists to provide the public with the ability to conduct a basic search to find additional details about a financial institution. OIT supports the various elements of the application with development staff and database administrators.


In an effort to provide enhanced service to staff within the division as well as external entities, this project will modernize the BIDS solution to provide a browser based solution. The current database architecture and model has functionality that will continue to be utilized going forward with the possibility of some additional functionality if necessary. The browser based portion of the application will replicate existing functionality and provide additional functionality to the regulated entities, such as the ability to update contact information, which currently does not exist on a public facing site.


Qualifications


The mid-level developers chosen for this contract will:

• Review, analyze, and modify programming systems including encoding, testing, debugging and installing to support Banking's application system using existing frameworks and support tools.
