01874 Inspection Search Criteria Population Warehouse NSWC: WARCOM New
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Lock in the parameters within Inspection screen. Once you complete an inspection on selected inventory and go back to the available inventory, the filters set in place are reset. This requires you to input your filters/parameters after each inspection which greatly affects the time it takes to complete all the required inspections for that period.
 
Recommended:
Implement the same functionality to the inspection screen which is used on the Inventory Update screen. When updates are done on the selected inventory the available inventory does not remove previously set filters.
 
Mission Critical:

01871 Improve DPAS login Process Enterprise Leidos Done
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Currently the DPAS application relies on a Login process that is only compatible with non-modernized modules.  This requires modernized modules to be launched after first navigating through existing non-modernized modules.  This limits the ability for newer modernized modules to run standalone and can be frustrating for users wanting to bookmark the modern DAPS modules.  Through the modernization of DPAS the number of non-modernized modules that can be used to launch these newer modules will continue to be reduced and eventually eliminated.
 
Recommended:
Improve the DPAS Login Process to remove the requirement of using a non-modernized modules to access newer modules and have the new modules initiate authentication themselves.  To the extent possible, eliminate use of the non-modernized Login Process in favor of a single DPAS Login Process.
 
Mission Critical:
These changes will improve the user login and authentication process in DPAS for all DPAS modules.
 
Benefits:
The added run-ability of modernized DPAS modules will enhance the users' experience by allowing them to bookmark and authenticate directly to modernized DPAS modules.  This will additionally help reduce development complexities when testing code changes as non-modernized applications will no longer be a requirement to a functioning test case.
 
Frequency: Daily
 
Users:
These changes will enhance the sign-on process for all 17K users.

01870 Remove Unnecessary NSerivceBus Endpoints Enterprise Leidos Done
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Two endpoints were setup for each of our modernized applications.  In most cases it is only necessary to setup a single endpoint for each application.  Our service agreement with NServiceBus indicates that we are billed for each endpoint.  Having unnecessary endpoints increases the program's costs while not adding value to the program
 
Recommended:
Remove the extra, unneeded, endpoints in our API Layer and move the request tracking logic to the Service Layer of the DPAS modernized applications.  This will reduce the overall number of endpoints consumed and reduce the associated costs.
 
Mission Critical:
Removing unnecessary endpoints will reduce costs and removing unnecessary code will improve maintenance and development speed.
 
Benefits:
Reducing the additional costs of endpoint usage.
Removing unnecessary code, reducing complexity, and saving future development time.
 
Frequency: 
 
Users:
The majority of our modernized applications will be affected.  Approximate total users that use these systems are 17K.

01869 Global Appsettings Enterprise Leidos Done
Change Request: Process Improvement

Description:
Currently DPAS stores enterprise settings by module.  Enterprise settings should be the same throughout the system.  By storing them by module it's time consuming to maintain when a change is required, and requires a reconciliation to determine which one is correct when they are not the same.
 
Recommended:
Create a global settings file that can be consumed into each module for settings that should remain constant across the enterprise.
 
Mission Critical:
This change will improve the reliability of the system and reduce the effort to maintain the system.
 
Benefits:
System settings such as logging configurations, API URLs, and other environment specific variables will remain uniform throughout the system.
 
Frequency: Hourly
 
Users:
This change will ensure reliability for all DPAS users.
