Add Purpose Code to ICP and Warehouse
|
Warehouse,Materiel Management |
Leidos |
New |
Change Request: Policy/Regulatory
Description: DPAS does not currently support segregating materiel in its ICP or Warehouse applications by Purpose Code. DPAS was designed to use Owning DoDAAC and Project Code to support the USMC CSP and Storage Command operations. At that time, USMC stated they did not use Purpose Code. Post the initial implementation, USMC requested Purpose Code. To support the immediate need, USMC requested with DPAS agreeing to open / use the Secondary Serial Nbr to identify the purpose. This capability does not allow for systematically segregation / selection of assets by purpose code, thus DPAS needs to add Purpose Code to its ICP and Warehouse applications to bring the system into compliance with DoDM 4140.
Recommended: The recommended solution is to add a Purpose Code field to the DPAS ICP and Warehouse application and to update the DLMS traffic to support it. This change may necessitate changes to the inventory row business key, user processes, inquiries, reports, and interfaces. The change that are implement should ensure that DPAS aligns to DoD regulations, including the restriction against using alpha Purpose Code O. DLMS transactions will be updated to include Purpose Code. With purpose codes being agency specific, DPAS will need to provide the capability for different codes / descriptions / agency.
Benefits: Adding Purpose Code functionality will improve inventory management by allowing better categorization of assets. It will enhance regulatory compliance, improve reporting accuracy, and provide operational clarity by reducing ambiguities in inventory records. This change also positions DPAS for future scalability and system enhancements.

Catalog Data Script Reduction
|
PA,MU,Warehouse,Materiel Management,FSM |
Leidos |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description: The DPAS Support team is spending a disproportionate time executing user requested catalog data updates due to DPAS not providing system functionality needed to enable the DPAS user to modify catalog attributes. These attributes often times have a financial impact when capital assets are being updated. The goal of this SCR is to enable users to perform the updates as needed with DPAS supporting the financial updates that are needed.
Recommended: Review the business processes and determine when and where fields can be enabled for edit/change by the user(s), where obsolete data can be removed to avoid confusion and other opportunities to improve catalog data integrity instead of submitting help desk tickets or data script requests.
Mission Critical: This SCR will incorporate additional user functionality within the catalog processes. The goal is to reduce customer support while providing the user with a more unified experience.
Benefits: By enhancing the catalog in which users can manage their own stock nbr data, we will save time, improve accuracy and reduce data script requests.
Frequency: Daily
Users: All users who maintain catalog data.

Historic Inventory Level Repository
|
Warehouse |
USMC |
New |
Change Request: New System Process
Description: Currently, the system does not provide the ability to check the On-Hand Inventory status for previous dates. This is due to DPAS being a live system, where assets are constantly moving. As a result, researching inventory history, whether for routine inventory processes or resolving discrepancies, becomes impossible. To address this challenge, I propose the introduction of a Date Field to the Inquiry Screens for LIN/TAMCN, Stock Number, and ICN. This would allow users to pull inventory data for a specific location and view its status (e.g., quantity on hand) on any given date. Alternatively, another solution could be the implementation of a historical repository to capture and store inventory status at different points in time. This would provide a reliable way to track and query the inventory history as needed. The proposed enhancement will improve Users from ALL Agencies using DPAS ability to manage inventory discrepancies, streamline reporting processes, and ensure more accurate inventory auditing.
Recommended: Recommendation 1: Add a Date Field to the Inquiry Screens Introduce a Date Field to the Inquiry Screens for LIN/TAMCN, Stock Number, and ICN. This enhancement would allow users to select a specific date and view inventory data as it appeared on that day, including the status of assets, quantities, and other relevant details. By enabling this functionality, it would be possible to track historical inventory movements, improving visibility and accountability. OR Recommendation 2: Implement a Historical Repository Develop a new historical repository that stores and tracks inventory data at specific points in time. This repository would allow users to pull detailed reports for previous dates to verify status information such as asset counts, quantities, contract IDs, and other key inventory details. By providing access to this historical data, it would become easier to resolve discrepancies and perform inventory audits efficiently. Both options aim to enhance inventory tracking and reporting capabilities, addressing the challenges of monitoring inventory history in a live system.
Mission Critical: This process improvement will help immensely in the researching of discrepancies and researching for inventory accuracy.
Benefits: This will help ALL agencies operating in DPAS as a whole to better manage and verify inventory accuracy and research any possible discrepancies.

Description:
Currently the Force System Management Module only interfaces with the Property accountability module which is used to determine the DAF authorizations to build requirements. However, we require the capability to establish requirements for items that do not fall into the Class VII category and in some cases consumable materiel.
Recommended:

Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
The current problem is we have some members in DPAS that have multiple issues from different warehouses/locations. We need to be able to differential between the issues so we are able to return equipment to the proper warehouse/location, Proposed solution would be to have a way to designate the exact items from a particular warehouse/location. Possible Fix would be to add the Master Issue List(MIL) option on the individual return so you are able to pull the exact items the individual was issued from a particular warehouse/location.
Recommended:
Recommendation is to add a MIL option on the individual return so you are able to pull the exact items the individual was issued from a particular warehouse/location. Inserting the MIL, would allow the CSR to pull up the desired gear list to return.
Mission Critical:
Yes, because the Consolidated Storage Program (CSP) goal is to have an accurate inventory and with this functionality the customer service representatives (CSRs) will be able to conduct returns into the system with more truthful data.

Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
DPAS continues to expand its customer base. As part of this expansion, there is a requirement to support shipments to foreign governments. These shipments are assigned a MAPAC (Military Assistance Program Address Code) which is equivalent to a DoDAAC. Today, DPAS permits the manual entry of a MAPAC, but there is no validation that what was entered is a valid MAPAC. DPAS provides a data feed of MAPACs similar to the DoDAAC data feed. This SCR is requesting DPAS add the MAPAC to its DLA DAAS agreement and provide for import / selection / validation of MAPACS from the master list of MAPACs.
Recommended:
Import MAPACs, provide the capability to select / validate a MAPAC that is entered to the master list of MAPACs. This change would apply to Materiel Mgmt, (Customer Requisition), Warehouse (Materiel Release Order). The requisition service would need a change to support MAPAC validate if it supports Military Assistance Program ordering. Asset Disposition in PA that utilizes the Address Directory will likely need to support Military Assistance issues.
Mission Critical:

Notification of Change Contractor / Contract Data
|
Warehouse,Materiel Management |
Army: ASA(ALT) |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
DPAS designed the Contractor / Contract processes for use with the Materiel Mgmt. and Warehouse Mgmt. applications to be enterprise. Once it is created, it is available for all to use. While this may be good (enter once / use by all), a user can also change the entries making them anything they want it to be not knowing the impact to other DPAS users. Providing an automated process that does not require Help desk support to correct incorrect data is good, but there can be negative consequences if not properly managed. The impact could result in be materiel on loan to a contractor be re-assigned to a different contract / contractor without the user knowing their data was changed.
Recommended:
It is recommended that DPAS review these processes for: 1) Restricting changes to those organizations that created them, 2) Notify the user who is making the update that the record they are updating is currently in use by other organizations, thus their change could impact the other organization's data and 3) notify all organizations that are using the record that was changed of the change. It is also recommended that there be consideration given to enabling an organization to identify contractor / contracts that they are using rather than having to see all contractors / contractors that have been entered. For example: A west coast organization that purchases materiel from LOWES has no need to see LOWES (CAGEs) that do not reside within their proximity. Having the ability to restrict the list to those an organization users will reduce the time required to enter a record (less data to review / select) and reduce the chance of selecting an incorrect value.
Mission Critical:
This SCR results from a change that occurred within DPAS production by one organization that was not aware that contractor / contract data was enterprise. They needed a new contractor and contract. Seeing ones they were not using, they modified them to be something completely different which impacted another organization's data that established the records and were in use. They didn't know their data was realigned to a different contractor / contract when the other organization hijacked their records. A change like this also impacts PIEE GFP reporting as the materiel is now assigned to an incorrect contract / contractor.
Benefits:
This solution enhances accuracy and may prevent an unwanted change that could take a significant amount of time to unravel and return the data to its correct state. The impact of an enterprise change by an unknowing user the size of DPAS with a diverse user base could have a catastrophic impact to another organization's data that could take a significant effort to undo.

New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
The Application Administrator role/user tier is a bit of a misnomer. Additionally, in DLA J64 they refer to our privileged users (Jonathan Gillette, John O'Connor, Dave Czar, etc.) as App Admin but they have no relation to the Application Admin as it is defined in DPAS. For the sake of clarity internally and during audit it would be helpful to change the name of this role. With this change, updating the support url (https://dpas.dape.dla.mil/admin/ ) would be a good idea as since "admin" implies privileged access to the system.
Recommended:
"Application Administrator" role/user tier could be renamed to "Application Support" and the url for the support site could be changed from "https://dpas.dape.dla.mil/admin/" to "https://dpas.dape.dla.mil/support/".
Mission Critical:

Description:
The current branding of the Defense Property Accountability System (DPAS) primarily associates the application with Property Accountability whereas DPAS has expanded its capabilities to include a full spectrum of logistics functions. It is recommended that DPAS be re-branded to better reflect it functions.
Recommended:
Re-brand the DPAS as the Enterprise Logistics Management System (ELMS). This new branding will reflect a more inclusive representation of DPAS core functions, and provide applicability beyond the Department of Defense. The re-branding will involve updating the system as well as the systems documentation (design documents, training materials, training videos, desk guides, interface agreements, etc so that everything align with the ELMS brand.

The unit of issue for the stock number is FV that maps to X12-equivalent “Unit of Measure” as Q9 according to the master list conversion file from the DLA site, located at https://www.dla.mil/Defense-Data-Standards/Resources/LOGDRMS-Resources/. The schema currently loaded on the DEDSO website for 846R (004010F846R4RA28_Aug2123_ADC_1454.xsd) and a previous schema being used by DPAS contain a list of allowable “Unit of Measure” values in data element E_355. That list does not contain all of the X12 values listed in the current Conversion Table. DPAS is unable to process any XML:846R transactions containing a value not listed in the incomplete list. This is incorrect and addressed by the DEDSO Team by updating the 846R Schema.
Recommended:
The new and latest schema (004010F846R4RA28_Sept0324_DE355_TurnedOff.xsd) for 846R Transaction updated by DEDSO Team updated in DPAS and DAAS systems to allow processing of 846R transactions with “Unit of Measure” as Q9 code value successfully.

TPF Customer Profiles
|
PA,Materiel Management |
Army: Asa(Alt) |
New |
Change Request: Process Improvement
Description:
An analysis conducted of DPAS TPF transactions for unsuccessful transaction errors and help desk tickets associated - determined the reason that the TPF was not successful is due to the user not establishing the profile correctly. The DPAS Customer Profile process within Materiel Mgmt. provides a repeatable setup process to support the Army's Total Package Fielding (TPF) if the DPAS users creates the correct profile. The PA modules using the Address Directory process which would also benefit from the recommended changes. The Customer Profile needs to be configured for the system the Unit is using for Property Accountability. While most fielding’s are to Units using GCSS-Army, it could be Units using DPAS and in some situations a fielding could be another DoD property accountability system. By having the Customer Profile established correctly, it is estimated that TPF failures could be reduced by 35%-60%. The problem is applicable to Materiel Mgmt. and Property Accountability modules.
Recommended:
ASA ALT is recommending several improvements to DPAS. These enhancements will enable the DPAS customer to save time (protecting limited resources) with additional input, while reducing common error shortfalls and reduction in the DPAS HDT support.
1. Create a process that contains the critical Customer Profile / Address Directory attributes that are specific to the Property System. Attributes would include Property System, Document Nbr series, Notification by DAAS/DLMS, PMR Required, PMR RIC, Shipment Status Required, Signal Cd, M&S Code, Distribution Code, etc..
2. Modify Customer Profile / Address Directory to have the user select the system the Unit is using, thus pulling in the critical elements with the users not being able to modify them. An alternative would be removing the elements specific to a property system from Customer Profile / Address Directory
profile and linking the property system configuration setting to the Unit configuration. The proposed System Configuration setup would be role based with restricted access to only those users having knowledge of correct values.
3. Add additional checks and provide for corrections to preclude having to start over.
a. For example, for a fielding to GCSS-Army, DPAS should validate that a PMR ACK has been received prior to allowing the user to complete the issue.
b. When a PMR NCK is received, DPAS should provide a method for the user to correct the error and resubmit the PMR and likewise when a Shipment Status NCK is received. Allow for correction of the error or provide the user with the capability to cancel the fielding returning the inventory.
Mission Critical:
These proposed modifications aim to significantly reduce the man-hours required for searching, reprocessing unsuccessful transactions and HDT support to the user. These improvements will lead to overall cost savings for the U.S. government and streamline warehouse movements with greater control and accuracy.
Benefits:
This solution enhances accuracy for large scale transactions across the force and provides a total cost savings by reducing man hours and time-to-task required to accurately issue large scale amounts of inventory, while reducing the DPAS HDT support.

Telematics API
|
MU |
AF: VSCOS |
New |
Change Request: New System Process
Description:
The Department of the Air Force needs API link from MyGeotab to DPAS for near real-time utilization capturing asset’s OBD.
Current telematics file upload process captures distance reported from a select period and adds the value to the previous meter reading to capture the current meter reading. Using this process methodology fails to validate the accuracy of the previous meter reading and can lead to compounded errors if file upload continues. Telematics data feed from MyGeotab provides real-time meter reading directly from the asset’s computer. Using this value ensures data integrity by eliminating human data entry and potential flaws.
Recommended:
Establish daily API feed from MyGeotab to DPAS. Specific landing points: Mass utilization update. There is no need to build anything for this to happen (utilization should auto populate when opening work orders).
The information requested from MyGeotab is: Vehicle Id (Asset Id), Rptd Dt, Current Mtr Rdng, Current Engine Hours, Serial Nbr.
Update the telematics data transfer process to accept Current Meter Reading and not the current Distance value option. This process will log an Asset Utilization Transaction with an updated Current Meter Reading based on the value directly from the telematics data source in MyGeotab database server via Advanced Programming Interface (API) feed. This feed would transfer one time per day at end of day. Additionally, build a validation check/error report into the process to prevent the assets’ Current Meter Reading record to update if the Current Meter Reading is negative in value compared to the previous meter reading within DPAS. With the validation check, we would require a report or inquiry to show what didn’t update so users can validate bad data and correct discrepancies.
Mission Critical:
Mandated and critical. Having this capability prevents erroneous data reporting into mandated sources (i.e., FAST). FAST reports included over 15,000 flags tied to utilization and mileage errors within DPAS. Using automated telematics is the way forward eliminating errors and adjusting entry format streamlines multiple interface requirements for end-users, ensuring accurate data entry and data integrity.
Benefits:
Implementing this system change greatly improves DPAS data accuracy for FAST, sustainment budgeting and financial reporting. Combining the data feed into this platform will eliminate redundant data aggregation via multiple website operations that attribute to bad utilization data due to human error. This critical capability prepares the platform for electrification of assets (Future Fleet) by comparing electric vehicle utilization to fuel and mileage/hours. This automation will also improve overall cost savings in manpower and fleet health. Limited change to the system architecture is required due to the preexisting capability of data capture being available. This will simply automate the current process with a direct feed to the platform (preexisting authorization of MyGeotab commercial system communications exists).

New |
Change Request: New System Process
Description:
Problem: AF GFM-A CICPs operate on their contracts for about 5 years, then new contracts may be awarded to the existing contractor or to a new company. For those AF GFM-A CICPs already transacting in DPAS, this translates to starting over with new conversion spreadsheets and passing data validation and data load performed by the DPAS Implementation Team. DPAS does not have process(es) needed to copy existing production data to create new CICP entries for the new contracts. AF GFM-A team proposed an 'easy button' process to copy and paste existing data to create new CICP entries. The 'easy button' process is not a replacement for the current AF GFM-A DPAS Implementation process; its' an alternative to starting over with conversion spreadsheets. The new capability would leverage/reuse the existing catalog data in DPAS to reduce implementation time.
Recommended:
DPAS will provide a CICP copy capability to copy existing production data from the expiring contract to the new contract. The copy capability will provide the authorized user a data entry screen for the new contract number, DoDAACs, RIC, etc. The data entry screen would replace the existing data within the copy function.
