WTS will support the SEVIS system. The system helps DHS-SEVP manage schools, nonimmigrant students in the F and M classes of admission, and their dependents. The Department of State (DoS), Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, Office of Private Sector Exchange, utilizes SEVIS to carry out its mission in administering the Exchange Visitor Program. Nonimmigrants who participate in the Program as exchange visitors enter the United States in a J class of admission. Information on exchange visitors/spouse, dependents, and designated sponsors is collected and maintained in SEVIS.
WTS will support the VSPTS-Net system, a tracking system that centrally stores and organizes Visa Security Program case information. VSPTS-Net extracts data from the DoS CCD, which provides the source information about visa applicants and applications, and the consular official’s adjudication of any applications in question. Visa Security Officers (VSO) vet these applicants by checking other systems like Treasury Enforcement Communication System (TECS) to look for derogatory information then store their casework in a central tracking system.
WTS will provide ATP migration and enhancement services in accordance with ATP technologies including WAS, WPS, MQ and Oracle. ATP provides calling applications with a threat assessment of a subject by returning scores that provide a subject’s criminal offense level COL and threat to the community. ATP calculates the scores based on business rules that are applied to a subject’s criminal history as reported by the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) National Crime Information Center (NCIC) system.
WTS will implement Web Services to include the Enforcement Integration Database (EID) Web Service and Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) Web Service. These services provide mission-critical production dependencies to systems inside and outside of ICE and operate to ensure the following: Support for mission-critical systems without interruption. Address of potential functional enhancement and enterprise refactoring. Promotion and furtherance of the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) initiative through technical leadership, SOA consultation, and maturation.
GLE MIB is a project within the Identification and Booking program and overall HSI portfolio that provides arrested subject processing tools specifically tailored to the business needs of ICE HSI. The EAGLE MIB program was born from the DHS IT directive to replace two mission critical applications, ENFORCE, and a Web-based biometrics process WebIDENT. EAGLE MIB is a one-ICE solution for a universal booking and biometric system for all criminal and alien arrests. To support this, the ICE Enforcement Removal Operations (ERO) directorate is also beginning the process of migrating from the legacy systems into EAGLE.
