  Change Request: Process Improvement

  
  

  Description:

  Currently Authorization managers must input readiness code 'A' authorizations into FSM either via Mass update or manual input. In some cases the Unit Type Code (UTC)s and Auth details in FSM do not match the UTCs in the authoritative system which causes mismatches between the systems and requires manual intervention.

   

  Recommended:

  Establish an interface to the authoritative system Deliberate and Crisis Action Planning and Execution System (DCAPES) to limit or eliminate manual intervention. The DCAPES PMO also has a requirement for their system to accommodate this requirement

   

  Mission Critical:

  Removes the manual process of establishing readiness code 'A' requirements. Additionally this will resolve a recent AFAA audit finding, that identified mismatches in FSM from the authoritative database with regard to UTC requirements

   

  Benefits:

  By leveraging the direct interface we remove the manual process and remove the requirement to reconcile the data from both systems.

   

  Frequency: Daily

   

  Users: Existing UTCs are validated biennially, currently there are over 160K UTC tasked authorizations
