ATTACHMENT A
uFACTS PUA/DUA Statement of Work – Amendment #9

This amended Statement of Work incorporated as Contract Amendment 9, C-2021-14-0677-9, is by and


between Deloitte Consulting LLP (“Deloitte” or “Deloitte Consulting) and the State of Ohio Department
of Job and Family Services (the “State”), effective as of the latest date of the executed Contract
Amendment 9, C-2021-14-0677-9, and is governed by the uFACTS SOW General Terms and Conditions
and the uFACTS CSA dated as of April 13, 2020, which is incorporated herein by this reference.

Project Approach
Deloitte will implement a cloud-based version of our Unemployment Framework for Automated Claim &
Tax Services (uFACTS) solution to meet Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) requirements of the
CARES Act and UI Disaster Unemployment Assistance (DUA) claims. The solution provides the State
Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (PUA) functionality necessary to support the CARES act, including
processing the additional claims load and making PUA and PFUC payments. The solution also supports
any regular DUA declarations, providing the State with a DUA solution.

Functional Overview
uFACTS is designed to let the State define and operate PUA/DUA programs. System administrators can
define program parameters for PUA and DUA benefit programs. The administrator enters the proper
program parameters (effective dates, eligibility criteria, monetary parameters, etc.) and creates the
program. The system creates the new program type and name and creates the necessary flows to allow
claimants to apply for and, if eligible, receive benefits.

uFACTS for PUA/DUA meets the following high-level functional requirements:

• The system needs to comply with UIPL 16-20 and its associated attachments. Any out of scope
requirements will be subject to a standard change request and approval process.
• PUA/DUA Program Setup - The system allows staff to system administrators the program
parameters such as begin date, incident date, declaration date, etc. and to successfully establish
the program.
• Initial Screening – the system allows claimants to respond to initial screening questions. These
questions determine whether the claimant is most likely a traditional state UI claimant or
PUA/DUA claimant. If the claimant is a traditional UI claimant, they are directed to file an initial
claim with the existing State UI application. If the claimant is a PUA/DUA claimant, they are
directed to the uFACTS Initial Claims functionality.
• Initial Claim - uFACTS for PUA/DUA provides a responsive web framework solution which
captures the complete PUA/DUA UI claim process per USDOL UIPL rules and regulations. The
initial claims application collects pertinent claimant information (such as IRS withholdings and
backdating) upfront, and in detail, to increase the timeliness and accuracy of downstream
processes. Claimants are required to create a user id and password for uFACTS for PUA/DUA
during the initial claim process. Experion ID proofing will be used for identity proofing to
validate the claimant, unless the state and Deloitte mutually agree to an alternate solution for
SSA verification.

Page 3 of 21
C-2021-14-0677-9

• The state and Deloitte will work together to develop mechanisms to prevent claimants from
being paid from both the regular UI and PUA systems in the same week.
• Monetary Determination - For PUA/DUA claims, uFACTS establishes the PUA/DUA monetary
determination based on the earnings information provided by claimant during claim intake
process and uses configurable minimum PUA/DUA WBA and maximum PUA/DUA WBA values
established during the PUA/DUA Program Setup. Monetaries are recomputed based on revised
earnings information.
• Certifications – uFACTS for PUA/DUA provides weekly continued claim certifications
functionality. uFACTS displays the questions based on the current program type of the claimant.
It can accept the weekly certifications on both personal computers and mobile devices due to its
responsive web capabilities.
• Payments - uFACTS for PUA/DUA generates, through the State’s payment vendors, payments to
eligible PUA/DUA claimants that have completed a weekly certification. The process determines
the weekly amount based on the State’s rules for PUA/DUA weekly benefit amounts, as well as
PFUC. A nightly file is generated to the State’s current payment vendor(s) to generate the
payment via direct deposit or debit card. Overpayments established within the system can be
offset against future payments.
• Adjudication - The main purpose of Adjudication is to help staff determine eligibility for
PUA/DUA benefits when issues arise that should potentially prevent payment of benefits.
uFACTS has workflow to intelligently route issues to an adjudicator’s workflow inbox. This
process allows the State to set rules to route the issue to the right adjudicator, using criteria
such as the priority of the issue to the business, the skill set of the adjudicator and the
timeliness due date of the issue.
• Accounting - The uFACTS for PUA/DUA Fiscal Reporting component tracks all payments made at
the claimant level by week, and reports and interface files are generated to allow recording of
summary transactions in the State’s accounting system.
• Workflow - The uFACTS for PUA/DUA Solution provides workflow functionality through the
integrated Business Process Framework powered by IBM Case Foundation.

uFACTS for PUA/DUA


uFACTS for PUA/DUA is a component-based, multi-tiered architecture. The uFACTS Technical
Architecture provides the State a system that meets the functional requirements of PUA. Our uFACTS for
PUA/DUA Technical Architecture:
1. Is built-on n-tiered, component-based open framework to support the needs of the PUA/DUA
processes.
2. Is built on Microsoft .NET programming stack, including ASP.NET and C# for its core application,
jQuery JavaScript libraries.
3. Uses pre-configured components whenever possible to reduce development, testing, and
implementation time.
4. Adheres to Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) design principles to reuse business logic,
reducing integration complexities.
5. Is a modular solution that eases integration with other components or systems, such as COTS
products, federal systems, and other state agencies.
6. Is based on a modern architectural design that provides extensibility and scalability.

Page 4 of 21
C-2021-14-0677-9

7. Is designed with data accuracy and integrity, policy and business logic, and automated workflow
and incorporates integrated, intelligent workload management and distribution to help improve
business process efficiency.

Technical Architecture uFACTS for PUA


The following graphic depicts the model Cloud deployment of uFACTS for PUA/DUA:

Figure 1: uFACTS Production Environment

uFACTS for PUA/DUA will be hosted on US Regions of Amazon Web Services Commercial Cloud, which
operates under multiple security compliance programs, such as CSA, ISO, FedRAMP, FISMA and many
others.

User Authentication
uFACTS for PUA/DUA includes OKTA’s FedRAMP compliant identity solution for authentication which
wraps around uFACTS Microsoft Active Directory for user management and for authorization services for
claimant and staff users. OKTA and IOP OHID portal integration (OH|ID) will occur after go live. As
detailed requirements unfold, the State and Deloitte will assess project impact and determine and agree
to the scope, schedule and an equitable adjustment to the fees using a standard change request and
approval process.

Deloitte will work with JFS to incorporate data from a JFS PUA Pre-Registration application that JFS will
implement on April 24. Deloitte will provide a table within the uFACTS application to load PUA Pre-
Registration data (SSN, First and Last Name, DOB, Gender, Email Address) prior to uFACTS
implementation. Deloitte shall modify the Initial PUA Triage screen to allow entry of a Pre-Registration
confirmation code, allowing data from the table to populate the subsequent Claimant Demographic

Page 5 of 21
C-2021-14-0677-9

screen. Data will be limited to the data currently displayed in that screen. No other changes to uFACTS
for this integration will be included.

Interfaces
With the timely assistance of State business and technical staff, uFACTS for PUA/DUA will incorporate
the interfaces below as part of the implementation. These interfaces must be completed and tested in
order to place the DUA application in production. Supported interfaces will consist of:

• Scanning and Indexing – for inbound paper documents such as wage verification documents,
eligibility verification information, etc. Interfaces will need to be established to the uFACTS
Document Management System
• Printing – to generate outbound correspondence to the PUA/DUA claimant
• Payment/Bank Interface – daily outbound payment file to existing bank or payment service
(direct deposit or EBT)
• Accounting– outbound interface to the State’s financial account system with summary
transaction data.
• UI Tax System – A routine (automated and scheduled) interface to uFACTS of all wage
information to verify that PUA applicants do not have wage information in the system
• UI Benefits System – A routine (automated and scheduled) interface that provides existing claim
information along with the status of the claim including exhausted and ineligible claims. This
interface will provide details required to administer the PUA program as defined by DOL in
related UIPL(s).
• Child Support Offset – allows for a nightly batch interface to SETS system to allow for offsets.
This is a bi-directional interface into and out of SETS.

Cloud Hosting
Deloitte will implement uFACTS for PUA/DUA on a dedicated, state specific account within a commercial
Cloud provider and configure and maintain the Cloud environment throughout the project. As part of
the scope of this SOW, Deloitte will provide all necessary infrastructure and 3rd-party software required
to support the uFACTS solution via this commercial Cloud provider.

In addition, Deloitte will manage the Cloud environment for the application, addressing the following
services:
• Cloud and Hosting Services Build and Configure
• Incident and Change Management
• Service Reporting
• Monitoring and Alarming
• Security
• Network Connectivity
• Performance and Capacity Management
• Cost Management
• Backup and Restore
• Operating System Management

C-2021-14-0677-9

Training
Deloitte will conduct the following training service for the State users that will work with uFACTS to
service PUA customers: Deloitte will create a training region and training material and deliver training in
three training sessions for staff end users 1 week prior to go live. Deloitte will provide the State with all
the training materials in an editable format so they may maintain the training post go live. We will also
conduct one train the trainer to State training staff post go-live for PUA at a mutually agreeable
schedule. Further details of the training sessions are described below in the Deloitte Responsibilities
section.

Claims Processing Capability


As a contemplated option, the State is working with Deloitte regarding the implementation of a uFACTS
PUA/DUA claims processing capability to process UI claims from adjudication through settlement. As
detailed requirements unfold, the State and Deloitte will assess project impact and determine and agree
to the scope, schedule and an equitable adjustment to the fees using a standard change request and
approval process.

Transition Services
Deloitte agrees to provide Transition Services to the State, that will, at a minimum:

• Provide assistance, cooperation and information as is reasonably necessary to help enable a


smooth transition of the applicable solution and/or services to the State or its designated
service provider.
• Transfer State-owned data (detail and summary), information, deliverables, work products,
documentation, etc.
• Identify any dependencies on the new service provider necessary for Deloitte to perform the
transition services.
• Assist the State in the identification of significant potential risk factors and mitigation strategies
relating to the transition.

Assumptions
The following assumptions apply to this engagement, and parties acknowledge that departure from
these assumptions may affect the outcome and timeliness of the engagement and will require a change
order to address the impact on schedule, cost, and scope.

• In light of the COVID-19 crisis and the pressing need to implement PUA, the State and Deloitte
Consulting will be required to prioritize speed over non-critical functionality; decisions will be
governed by the need to pay eligible recipients and not non-essential or desirable functionality.
Customary State standards and rules for reporting, paperwork and process may require
suspension to meet the Project timeline. It is assumed that the implementation will commence
where the following criteria has been met:
o Interfaces listed above have been tested and may be executed, with or without
reasonable work-arounds
o State worker user ids have been created
o End user training has been performed
o Help desk has been established and trained
• The State acknowledges that it may need to authorize overtime for State staff to support the
Project and State responsibilities.
• The State will dedicate or obtain the staffing resources necessary to support the timely
execution of this critical project in accordance with the necessary aggressive project schedule.
• Deloitte Consulting will implement the base uFACTS for PUA/DUA solution; customizations to
Deloitte Consulting’s solution and other changes, including, without limitation, any due to new
Federal guidelines or State requirements, will require a mutually executed change order given
the need for additional resources and the impact of such changes on the project schedule and
pricing.
• The State will be responsible for aligning all 3rd party vendors and systems that are required to
interface with the new PUA system (i.e., payment systems, banks, EBT providers, State
accounting systems), coordinating the timely execution of any agreements, the coordination of
testing and the collaboration of participating partners. Deloitte will collaborate with the State
and 3rd party vendors in finalizing these interfaces for production, using existing interface
specifications.
• Current State technical documentation exists for each interface listed above and that it can rely
on such documentation in development of those interfaces.
• The State and its payment providers can accept payment and financial reporting files and agrees
to process payment files generated by the system, according to the interface standard.
• The State will work with existing State UI bank or payment service to ensure they can receive
and process PUA/DUA payment file separate from State regular UI Payment file, according to
the interface standard. The interfaces generated by uFACTS will contain PUA data only.
• The recent compromised performance of Federal integrity checks may require that such
integrity checks be suspended to ease the customer experience. Integrity may have to be

Page 16 of 21
C-2021-14-0677-9

enforced by the State on the back end, or through subsequent releases of cross-match or other
integrity capabilities.
• Offsets to collect amount due balances from other programs (e.g. UI) are not within the scope of
this agreement. If desired, automated interfaces may be considered to be built and deployed
post-implementation, subject to the capacity of the Hypercare team.
• Offsets for child support may be implemented as a secondary release and must be
accommodated within the capacity of the Hypercare team.
• There will be no interface from uFACTS for PUA/DUA to ICON Services.
• The PUA System will include integration with Experion identity services. Failure to authenticate
with the Experion services shall permit or withhold payment, as per the State’s choice, and
create an identity adjudication issue within the system that staff may elect to respond to.
• Users will authenticate with uFACTS built-in Active Directory Services, unless integration with an
enterprise IAM tool can be accomplished during the project timeline. Users will receive unique
login for uFACTS.
• Any interfaces other than those listed herein will be deferred to a post-implementation release,
and subject to Project Change Control processes.
• Due to the nature of social distancing requirements during the COVID-19 crisis, Deloitte staff will
work remotely until mutually agreed otherwise, and State staff will interact with the project
team using remote videoconferencing. Deloitte staff will be provided promptly with any access
credentials needed to complete the services.
• Development and implementation activities, such as coding and testing, may be conducted by
staff located offshore as well as onshore. No state data will be stored offshore and
unobfuscated production data shall not be viewed or accessed by offshore resources.
• There will be no data conversion included prior to implementation. The system will only serve
new PUA/DUA claimants. Any back conversion of data is subject to inclusion in the Hypercare
capacity.
• The processing capacity included in this SOW is based on an assumption of the AWS Production
Environment in Figure 1: uFACTS Production Environment. Should increased Cloud computing
power and capacity be required due to claimant volume, the parties will process an appropriate
change order to this SOW to adjust such capacity and associated Cloud hosting fees.
• The State and Deloitte agree to participate in Project Health Check Meeting(s), as deemed
necessary.
• From October 1, 2020 through Contract End, if the total number of incomplete claims and new
claims filed exceeds an average of 5,000 per day, an equitable adjustment to fees will be
deemed necessary to account for additional Experian fees. An equitable adjustment to the fees
must be mutually agreed to by the parties and will be subject to a change request and approval
process.
• Hypercare: The below list of hypercare items fall into three categories: (1) Ongoing support
requests, (2) Enhancements with clear scope and priority and (3) Enhancements without a clear
understanding of scope and priority (where it is difficult to estimate effort). Deloitte commits to
complete the items included in Category 1: Ongoing Support Items and Category 2:
Enhancements with clear scope and priority during the Amendment 5 hypercare extension. The
parties acknowledge that PUA is a dynamic program with changing priorities and therefore
Deloitte, working with JFS, will endeavor to complete the Category 3: Enhancments items (albeit
there is an overarching understanding that new federal legislation or guidance may change
these priorities).

Page 17 of 21
C-2021-14-0677-9

• Category 1: Ongoing Support Items, Deloitte will continue to provide support as requests
are made and prioritized by OUI and within the capacity of the hypercare team
a. Ad Hoc Data Requests
b. DOL Audit Findings
c. Mass Adjudication
• Category 2: Enhancements with clear scope and priority, Deloitte will complete during
Amendment #5 & Amendment #7 Hypercare extensions
a. OIG Data Extract
b. Website for Identity Theft (Deloitte understands this will entail an initial load and
daily interfaces, similar to the current wage/benefit interfaces with OJI)
c. LWA Closeout
d. Provide ability for repayments to be applied to overpayment debt
e. Prevent PUEC Paying benefits for same week ending date from both uFACTs and OJI
f. UIPL 16-20, Change 5
g. Lexis/Nexis Integration and Business Support
h. PUA Program changes necessitated by the American Rescue Plan Act (which extends
benefits through 9/6/21)
• Category 3: Enhancements without clear scope and priority, Deloitte will endeavor to
complete during Amendment #5 Hypercare extension as prioritized by OJI and within the
capacity of the hypercare team
a. National Directory of New Hires (NDNH)
b. Wage Record Cross Match
c. Overpayment Recovery Activities
• With regard to Amendment #7 and the transfer of the AWS account from Deloitte to the
State of Ohio, the following assumptions apply:
o Deloitte Cloud Managed Services (CMS) team will continue to provide AWS
infrastructure support once the account is transferred to the state organization.
o Deloitte CMS will maintain operational configuration of the AWS infrastructure (as
they exist today). The CMS staff will receive “I” accounts for Privileged access in
State AWS Organization.
o Deloitte CMS team is responsible for maintaining the management services for the
tools and services (SaaS) used by the shared Deloitte Cloud Management Platform
(GPS Service Hub).
o The cost of using the Deloitte Cloud Management Platform (GPS Service Hub) and
client specific CMP costs will be ongoing (as it works currently and subject to usage
adjustments).
o State will provide Deloitte with their master payer account. The ownership of AWS
accounts where the Application Infrastructure is hosted will be linked to this master
payer account.
o Deloitte will continue to have full administrative access on these accounts (as they
exist today).
o State will have access to AWS billing services and access to AWS console. For
configuration management reasons, it is understood, the State will not make any
configuration changes or limitations without approval of Deloitte.

Page 18 of 21
C-2021-14-0677-9

o State will be responsible for billing and all costs associated with these three AWS
accounts.
o State will leverage its Enterprise support agreement for AWS and provide Deloitte
CMS team with the ability to create support tickets.
o Deloitte has included the costs for the annual renewal of the FileNet/Datacap
licenses and the annual renewals for the Palo Alto licenses in this Amendment #7.
