Project Synopsis

Inland Revenue Interactive Network (IRIN) is the IRAS’ core system for processing all its tax types such as Individual Income Tax, Corporate Tax, GST, Property tax, clearance, S45, etc., IRIN was a high availability (24x7), net-centric system supporting 2000+ internal users, and users of several external parties such as Tax Agents, Corporate Representatives and other government agencies.IRIN version 1.0 was released first in 2004 and fully commissioned in 2006 to version 1.2. IRIN 2.0 was the Tech Refresh & Application Modernization Programme that upgrades the technology and infrastructure of IRIN 1.0 to the latest technologies and to optimize the application, primarily to Overcome Technology Obsolescence & Extend System Lifetime, Resolve current production issues and Optimize System Efficiency.


IRIN 1.0 was based on the Avanade Connected Architecture (ACA) 2.0. This was replaced by Enterprise Library 4.1 in IRIN 1.2.IRIN system supports the following 7 key functional areas:

1. eServices to support external tax payers (Custom)2. Tax Payer Relationship Management (Siebel)3. Tax Compliance and Analytics (Siebel + Custom)4. Core Processing for Tax Administration (Custom + several packages)5. Enterprise Workflow (Custom extensions to K2.NET)6. Enterprise Knowledge Management (Sharepoint Portal, Content Management Server)7. Data Warehousing and Analytics (Cognos)

Identity & Access Management (IAM) was implemented using the following tools: i-Sprint AccessMatrix UAM 5 was used for Authentication, Single Sign-on& Authorization

(Both Course-grained and Fine-grained authorizations) of external users. The XML-RPC and SOAP API interfaces of UAM 5 are used by the Security Framework component.

Tivoli's enterprise security solution suite was used for Authentication, Single Sign-on& Authorization (Both Course-grained and Fine-grained authorizations) of internal users.o Tivoli Identity Manager 5.1 was used for Role based provisioning engineo Tivoli Access Manager 6.1.1 for eBusiness was used for SSOo Tivoli Security Policy Manager 7.1 was used for Fine grained authorization engineo Tivoli WebSEAL was used as Policy Enforcer. It provides an authentication and

authorization mechanism to enable end-to-end Single Sign On (SSO) for HTTP based Web servers thus keeping the web server systems remain safely isolated from Internet traffic and threats. In this solution, WebSEAL acts as a reverse proxy (a proxy that lets users into a protected network as opposed to one that lets users out). The WebSEAL reverse proxy was deployed in the DMZ and similar security zone. A client would be authenticated by WebSEAL via userID and password, and a token would be assigned and associated with the transaction for the remainder of the communication.

The key Enterprise Software tools & technologies used and their purpose are as follows: TIBCO Active Matrix was used as the EAI Engine WebSphere Message Broker 7.0.0.1 was used for External Value Networks (EVN) IBM InfoSphere DataStage 8.1 was used as the Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) tool Fair Isaac Company’s Blaze Advisor .NET 6.9 was used as the Business Rules Engine Top Image Systems’ eFlow 4.5 was used for Optical Recognition. Adobe Central Output Server 5.7 was used for Reporting. Custom extensions to K2.NET are used for Enterprise Workflow. TIBCO ActiveMatrix was used as the development, deployment and management of

composite business process management (BPM) and service-oriented architecture (SOA) applications.

TIBCO BusinessEvents was used as the complex event processing (CEP) software that enables IRAS to identify meaningful patterns across their business. It does so by correlating massive volumes of data about discrete events and applying predefined rules to identify situations that require a response.

Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus was used as a carrier-class service and business assurance system that collects and consolidates enterprise-wide event and alarm information in real-time from many different network data sources and presents a simplified view of this information to operators and administrators.

The packaged applications integrated into the IRIN 2.0 application framework are as follows: Oracle’s Siebel CRM 8.1.1 was used as the CRM solution IBM FileNet 4.1.2 was used as the Document Management Tool Cognos Business Intelligence v10.1 was used as the Data Warehousing and Analytics toolAppFabric Cache (Velocity) was used for distributed caching of various static business data such as the Codes Table.Architected and implemented the Enterprise Search and Retrieval (ESR), Information Optimization and Data Visualization solutions using Autonomy Enterprise Search / Information optimization platform.

MOSS 2010 was used for building all the intranet applications that are used by Tax officers. MOSS 2010 and Microsoft Content Management Server (MCMS) 2010 are used for Enterprise Knowledge Management. MS Project 2010 was extensively used for project planning, scheduling, tracking and reporting.

Project Synopsis

The underlying aim of Basel II - to promote safety and soundness in the financial system by allocating capital in organisations to reflect risk more accurately. This can be attained only by the combination of effective bank-level management, market discipline and supervision. Basel II will impact the entire spectrum of banking, including corporate finance, retail banking, asset management, payments and settlements, commercial banking, trading and sales, retail brokerage and agency and custody services.This project was to develop a system to manage bank’s financial risks using BASEL II standards and to power the bank to review its risk management system. Basing on the BASEL II standard requirements, ANB developed more refined and specific requirements for each risk category. This system supported calculating regulatory capital for credit, operational and market risk using the different approaches defined by BASEL II to vary the degree of sophistication. The system also provides a framework to deal with all the other risks a bank may face such as systemic risk, pension risk, concentration risk, strategic risk, reputation risk, liquidity risk and legal risk. This system integrated with various quantitative credit analysis solutions of Moody’s KMV such as RiskFrontier, FinancialAnalyst, CreditEdge, RiskCalc and RiskAnalyst. This system was developed using the Presenter First software development approach that combines the ideas of the Model View Presenter (MVP) design pattern, Test-Driven Development, and Feature-Driven Development. MVP UI design pattern was used to facilitate automated unit testing and to improve the separation of concerns in presentation logic.This solution was based on the following key elements: A well-developed underlying data model, giving the required flexibility to model for a variety

of products, enabling the build-up of historical information and managing collateral information.

A flexible rule-based risk weighting tool handling multiple scenarios. A ‘smart’ risk mitigation engine, for optimal utilisation of netting, collateral and guarantee

information. A transparent system, to trace the derived calculations by means of audit trails and detailed

reports, supported by end-user computing tools.

The functional system contains the following features to be in line with the Basel II norms: Capture rating dimensions across each facility and borrower and also adjusted borrower

grade based on Guarantees. Capture transaction-specific details like Collateral, seniority, product type, purpose and other

factors affecting the Loss Given Default (LGD). Grade Descriptions and Criteria that are uniform across Lines of Business and geographies.


System that allows independent functioning of Risk Rating and Credit Approval departments.Major Contributions
