  Description:

   

  Interface between DPAS-WM and MCPIC.  

   

  Recommended:
  

   

  Interface should accomplish the following:
  

  1.  Automated moves between MCPIC and DPAS-WM.  When MCPIC picks up a location change for an item, it converts it from GPS to a DPAS-WM location and then passes that new location to DPAS-WM.   DPAS-WM automatically does the move transaction to place the identified asset in the location identified by MCPIC.  

  2.  Tags can be printed in either system but it is recommended that MCPIC generate all pRFID tag numbers.   This is prevent identical numbers being generated using the the DoD 96 bit EPC structure.

  3.  MCPIC will pass information to DPAS in any format approved by DPAS PMO.  This will include direct data exchange, MILS, or DLMS.  

  4.  MCPIC will utilize asset data found in DPAS-WM Catalog when tagging assets in order to minimize any exception errors.  

  Mission Critical:

   

  Mission critical.

  This affects USMC only, however the synergy between DPAS and MCPIC would be very useful to other services.
