Description
SPECWARCOM currently uses a system called SWALIS for accountability and several Forms / Local Databases to manage inspection / maintenance actions of their parachutes. With SPECWARCOM transitioning to DPAS, there is a need to be able to capture the Parachute maintenance actions and print a form for the Paraloft Team. This SCR is being submitted as a result of a requirements gathering meeting with SPECWARCOM. The SPECWARCOM POC is: Brent Hull.
Recommended
Modify the QC/Inspection process to allow for the posting of changes when the main parachute, reserve parachute and or components are replaced. The inspection will denote the date and who repacked the parachute along with the date QC "Inspector" of the repack/replacement. Both signatures should be able to be captured via E-Sign, D-Sign or via a Manual Signature. This change also identifies the need to provide for printing of an inspection record that denotes the Mfr Dt, Placed in Service Dt and it End Use Dt for the main end item along with its components. See forms for example.
Mission Critical
SPECWARCOM is transitioning away from SWALIS (eliminating the system) to DPAS. Several of the Warehouses expressed a need for this capability prior to their transition to DPAS.
Benefits
Eliminates several systems which will save the Department several million dollars/year.
Users
This capability could improve current users and future users of the Unit Issue Processes by streamlining the data capture (items must be Bar Coded to be most effective).
