    Description
    DISA is requesting the Defense Property Accountability System (DPAS) Program Management Office (PMO) to modify the DPAS application to interoperate with other DISA and DOD systems that use location and other enumerations from the Cyber Operational Attribute Management System (COAMS).  Once modifications are made, DISA will be able to use data from DPAS to update other systems, and data from other systems to update DPAS eliminating both duplication of effort and inconsistent data between systems.

    Recommended
    Integrate DPAS with COAMS so that users can create new sub-organizations and sub-locations in COAMS via DPAS by using a DPAS-COAMS interface. Similar to the Real Property Identification interfacing located under the Master data/location. See attach COAMs Integration Levels.

    Mission Critical
    This action is critical to enhance DISAs asset location in support of audit.

    Benefits
    Enable external systems to query DPAS using a web service to recover owning organization and locations for IT Assets using the affected Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or Serial Number (SN).  It centralizes data and improves accuracy of asset location to minimize rekeying errors.
