| 01726 | Fuel Cd - Fuel Type Cd Inquiry | MU | DF-VEHS | Removed | Description:
System does not provide Fuel Cd or Fuel Type Cd inquires or Reports at the asset level for complete vehicle fleet. Agency and Maint Activity users require information for higher headquarters or OSD data calls and to validate vehicle profiling accuracy within the Maint Asset Master. System allows action for FAST reportable assets, but fails to allow complete vehicle fleet management.
Recommended:
Add Fuel Cd and Fuel Type Cd as available fields within Inquiries>Maintenance>Maint Asset. Similar to FAST reportable assets, but for ALL assets
Mission Critical:
Critical and mandated. Capability enables agency and vehicle fleet managers to fulfill Federal, DoD, and Air Force data calls similar to FAST and DLA-Energy reporting. Data accuracy ensures compliance with Executive Orders and congressional mandates.
Benefits:
Available of fields significantly reduces time-to-need executing data calls and validating records. Current process requires accessing each asset's MAM to view the Details Basic Tab. Another option is submitting a DPAS Tier II customer support request for data. Both options increase task for time-sensitive data calls and records validation on information readily available for FAST assets, but lacking on complete vehicle fleet. Adding inquiry and report fields eliminates workload on all parties.
Users:
This will affect all users within the Air Force and fleet managers across the DoD.

| 01725 | Change Hover Note in M&U Preferences | MU | USAF | New | Description:
Message that displays when hovering over the "Non-Mission Capable" checkbox on the "Current Preferences", "Other Preferences" screen doesn't adequately explain the purpose of the option. Request a more clear description be added.
Recommended:
Change message displayed when hovering over the "Current Preferences", "Miscellaneous Preferences" checkbox from "Check to default NMC in Work Order" to "Check to default all new Work Orders to NMC status".
Mission Critical:
Not mission critical but will reduce confusion and allow smoother transition to M&U for new personnel.
Benefits:
Improves Work Order accuracy, reduces time spent opening new work orders.
Users:
All M&U users. Cancelled 5/27/2026 - Per email submitted by Jonathan Anlauf |

| 01724 | Adding DoD Serial Nbr to Field Options & MU Screens | MU | USAF | In Progress | Description:
DoD Serial Nbr field is not available as a field option in all M&U screens and functions. USAF SE uses the DoD Serial Number field in M&U to associate the asset and DPAS record with the historical record in legacy systems. We do this by documenting the legacy system ID in the DoD Serial Nbr field in DPAS. Additionally, in many cases this ID is physically stenciled on the asset and is the primary means of ready identification.
Recommended:
Include the DoD Serial Nbr as a field option on all inquiry screens. Display DoD Serial Nbr field on all profiling, work order, work plan, maintenance schedule, and other primary functional screens where the serial number or asset ID are displayed.
Mission Critical:
Mission Critical. For most AF SE maintenance organizations the DoD Serial Nbr represents the primary means of equipment identification when the equipment is in use.
Benefits:
Significantly reduces time spent identifying equipment when needed for maintenance or inspection, improves accuracy of documentation and accountability by providing the most used identification method on necessary screens. Also has safety implications when a piece of equipment must be removed from service quickly to prevent injury to personnel or damage to a weapon system. Also allows custodians to more quickly and accurately inventory equipment. Significantly reduces time spent profiling by providing the most known and available identifier on the screen for assets awaiting profiling.
Users:
Affects all users.

| 01723 | TDMS Interface Removal | Enterprise | Leidos | New | Description:
USMC has sunset the Technical Data Management System (TDMS), thus the TDMS interface is no longer operational.
Recommended:
This SCR is to remove the TDMS Interface system from the DPAS. As part of this effort, DPAS will remove / update the user's catalogs to reflect either FLIS or no external catalog that are currently aligned with TDMS.
Mission Critical:
Yes. Unused code is not permitted to exist within a system (STIG violation).
Benefits:
Improves performance and reduces the cost of maintaining the system with all references and BRs associated with TDMS removed.
Users:
The TDMS interface was used by USMC entities. The Consolidated Storage Program (CSP) has already re-aligned to utilize FLIS. A few other catalogs are currently associated with the TDMS interface. |

| 01722 | DPAS System Admin Review Process | Enterprise | Leidos | Done | Description:
DPAS received a NFR for its 2021 SSAE 18 audit review for its review of system processes. Currently DPAS's DAC, Quartz, and Pendulum processes provides no confirmation process when a DPAS administrator reviews background processes. DPAS does produce a daily report relating to the DAC processes (Batch, Reports and Process Queue), but even within, DPAS does not have a documented process that indicates that DPAS has reviewed the report and has taken action when an action is required.
Recommended:
DPAS develop a process where the System Administrator can confirm that a review of the processes was performed and the date/time it was performed. The goal would be to have a single control that can be implemented throughout the system where the SA could select, and enter comments to confirm that a review was completed. Upon Save, the process would write a row to a table containing the Users Id, Date/Time, what process was reviewed and the comments they may have entered. When requested to show proof that the reviews were being conducted in accordance with the DPAS procedures, DPAS could export the data to provide validation that the review is being performed.
Mission Critical:
Yes - Satisfy the SSAE18 audit process, without having to save the page, convert it to PDF and digitally sign it every time a review is performed.
Benefits:
Reduces the cost to validate the reviews are being performed and provides positive confirmation.
Users:
This supports the SSAE 18 / MDS requirements for positive validation that DPAS is reviewing the system in accordance to its procedures.

| 01721 | Warehouse Activity Report | Warehouse | USSOCOM | Removed | Description:
Within the Issues - Unit Transfer section of the Warehouse Activity Report (LPWHR78), the
account name in which the assets are being transferred to is not displayed. Recommended:
Add an additional column which contains the Account Name of who the assets were transferred to. If needed, the LIN/TAMCN or Condition Code can be removed from this section to provide the needed room of adding a new column.
Mission Critical:
Mandated - Day to day activities can still be completed.
Benefits:
Adding this additional column would assist in accountability as well as reduce the time as the user would have a report which shows the complete transaction of where the asset was transferred from and where it was transferred to.
Users:
This greatly affects our Armory users as they must be able to show the complete electronic transactions for accountability purposes. A minor affect is relayed to the rest of the user base for the times that a unit transfer is conducted. 12 December 2022 – cancelled per Jason Boden |

| 01720 | UII and pRFID Association | Enterprise | Leidos | In Progress | Description:
Since the legacy handheld applications are no longer supported by the project, there is no method, outside of initial asset receiving to associate a UII marking or RFID tag information to assets within DPAS.
Recommended:
Provide the ability to capture and associate IUID markings and/or pRFID tag to an asset within DPAS utilizing AIT and/or mobile devices. This include both serial and bulk pRFID tag information and would be available within the Property book and Warehouse modules.
Mission Critical:
There are more and more organizations evaluating passive RFID as a more effective method of asset identification. There is also a need to collect and associate Bulk RFID tag information within DPAS to enable the conducting of physical inventories and performing issues.
Benefits:
Improves the accuracy and efficiency of identifying assets in several of the materiel management processes within DPAS
