01714 CFO Threshold Change PA USAF Done
Description:
 
System is depreciating Air Force CFO assets utilizing the old threshold standard for units with an acquisition cost of $100K or more with an acquisition date prior to November 2013
 
Recommended:
 
Modify systems internal algorithm to comply with $1M threshold retroactively as mandated by DoD 7000.14 Vol 4 Ch 25.
 
Mission Critical:
 
Mandated per DoD 7000.14-R Vol 4 Ch 25.
 
Benefits:
 
Needed to avert erroneous financial reporting
 
Users:
 
This change will affect all users within the Department of the Air Force (DAF)
 
01713 Data Access by Owning DoDAAC Warehouse Army: ASA/ALT New
Description:
 
PEO Missile & Space (M&S) has multiple warehouse and facility locations that support multiple programs.  Most programs have a some like items (Stock Nbrs). Given that there can be like items across programs, the current DPAS Commodity Security does not provide the access control that is required.  We need an option to restrict the actions of users to specific programs that are stored in the same warehouse.  Currently the Owning DoDAAC is used to identify the materiel owner / program within the warehouse.  
 
Recommended:
 
Given that that the Owning DoDAAC is currently used to identify the program/owner of the materiel, it logical that if DPAS were to control data access by Owning DoDAAC, this will provide the capability needed.
 
Mission Critical:
 
Given the sensitivity / pilfer-able nature of some of the items that PEO M&S has, this change is considered critical.
 
Benefits:
 
Implementing this type of data access will improve control of the materiel in the warehouse which will result in better data accuracy, which in turn will reduce the number of reconciliations resulting from warehouse workers personnel performing actions they are not otherwise authorized to perform.
 
Users:
 
This change is limited to warehouse operations.  Program restrictions will apply to a subset of warehouse personnel assigned to the warehouse.  Some warehouse personnel will have the authorization to work multiple programs.  
01712 Warehouse Receiving Due In Role Warehouse SOCOM Done
Description:
 
USSOCOM does not pass requisitions forward using ICP Module since USSOCOM is it's own Source Of Supply. USSOCOM takes contract information and manually builds all of the due-ins for the warehouses by using the Warehouse Module Receiving process. The PEO's of USSOCOM need their contractor Logistics Managers (LMA's) located at the SOFSA Warehouse to be able to perform the manual build of due -ins,  but not perform the remaining steps/processes of the Receiving Process (Receive, Verify, Accept). This is a separate responsibility from our contracted workforce that conducts receive and verify processes.  
 
Recommended:
 
Create a new role in Warehouse Module that limits the User Role to perform the Material Management Functions - LPWNH19 and LPWNH19D process in Receiving. This will enable a select group of contractors to build the due-ins for the warehouses as the PEO representative but block them from performing other receiving actions to maintain separation of duties
 
Mission Critical:
 
This is to streamline processes for the SOCOM PEO's that are responsible for inputting their purchase orders into DPAS as Due-Ins but have no means to do so.  
 
Benefits:
 
Benefit is this will improve accuracy and speed up the Receiving Process at the USSOCOM Warehouses. This change will allow due-ins to be be pre-built by the contract workforce identified by the PEO's. These PEO/Program LMA's will be focused on their contract data, and input that data into the Warehouse. This process improvement will free up personnel tasked with ICP management that are currently performing manual due-in builds
 
Users:
 
This impacts only USSOCOM Agency users since USSOCOM is it's own Source of Supply. Our only option currently is to manually build our Due-ins by leveraging people that should not be conducting those transactions.

01711 M&U Corrosion Score and Coating Fields for Work Order Forms MU USAF Done
Description:
 
DPAS M&U does not have a data field specifically for Corrosion Scores, Paint Stack-ups or the Date an item was Last Painted as mandated by service policy. The proposed improvement is adding these fields to the work order form. This will allow for documentation and historical record keeping of this required information at the enterprise level.
 
Recommended:
 
Add (to M&U) Four drop-down menus, one for Corrosion Scores (5 options), one for Primers, one for Topcoats, and one for Color. Adding a date selection box for Date Last Painted.
 
Mission Critical:
 
Recording of corrosion scores is mandated by Air Force Policy and this change would allow accurately documenting condition and enterprise wide viewing of those records, which is currently impossible.
 
Benefits:
 
This solution would allow for support equipment and vehicle flights to have all the information they need about equipment corrosion status to be accessible at the enterprise level. Having records of corrosion scores allows for prioritizing for corrosion maintenance and assessment of fleet corrosion health/readiness. Recording the coating records allows the flights to be prepared for coating refurbishment activities by ensuring they have the required coatings before tearing down the equipment. This also improves accountability and tracking as certain primers and coatings are currently being phased out. This allows for equipment with these coatings to be easily identified so that resources can be allocated for repainting.
 
Users:
 
ALL users - The benefits of having this capability would apply to every user of Support Equipment or Vehicles, especially any users documenting maintenance the equipment, including maintainers, fabrication flights, MAJCOM Corrosion and Fabrication Functional Managers, as well as personnel within AFLCMC/WNZ and AFLCMC/EZP-CPCO who are responsible for the SE&V, as well as any commanders needing to identify readiness issues.

01710 ICP MRO Multiple Upload Materiel Management DLA New
Description:
 
Request a file upload function and template for the ICP (aka Materiel Management) in the Customer Requisition Process to mass upload multiple MROs (Customer Requisitions) in an excel spreadsheet.  Once uploaded, have the function in ICP module to validate each MRO qty and location (aka RSA) - currently exists and is the process to release each MRO to the Warehouse.
 
Recommended:
 
Update DPAS logic to allow for mass MRO entry via a file upload. See above.  At this time, the following Data elements would be provided in the Mass Upload Template:  Ordered By (DoDAAC/RIC), Ship To (DoDAAC/RIC), Owning ICP (DoDAAC/RIC), Stock Number (aka LSN), Qty, RDD, Priority Designator, demand code, media status code, fund code, signal code, POC Name, POC Phone #...
 
Any field that is currently available or required in ICP when creating an MRO request.
 
Mission Critical:
 
No, but would significantly improve MRO process.
 
Benefits:
 
Reduce the manpower to enter multiple MRO requests from external to DPAS
 
Users:
 
Yes (affects all users within Component/Agency)
01709 Warehouse User Listing Warehouse USAF/DH-VEHS Removed
Description:
 
Excessive time required requesting DPAS Warehouse access data from DPAS security.  
 
Recommended:
 
Propose system update allowing agency level users to generate inquiry for DPAS Warehouse UICs, User Roles, Access Level, Assigned Roles and Certified Training CBTs.  DPAS PA has similar inquiry and request same or similar function within Warehouse. Process will streamline and standardize inquiry for modules minimizing contact with DPAS security.  Additionally, update a searchable option for DoD ID number allowing easier filtering data mining.
 
Mission Critical:
 
Air Force Instruction 24-302, Vehicle Management requires accurate records on user level access into the Fleet Management Information System (FMIS).  Providing a streamlined and standardized inquiry for modules will meet requirement.
 
Benefits:
 
Process will streamline and standardize inquiry for modules minimizing contact with DPAS security.  Additionally, an updated searchable option for DoD ID number will allow easier filtering data mining.  Effort reduces touch point time from DPAS security and allows agency better accountability on trained personnel within DPAS.  Provides leadership accurate, accountable and timely responses to data inquiries vs. days waiting on an outside agency generating information and emailing results to requesting agency.
 
Users: 
 
Yes, affects all users within warehouse.

Description:
 
Currently Users must take action to set up WAWF User ID, WAWF flag set to Yes for Contracting Loan Address and WAWF set to Yes for DODAAC to execute GFP file transactions to PIEE.
 
Recommended:
 
On behalf of Joe Stossel and Daryl Hanchock change master data processes to default so that when an asset is placed on loan to contract all data is set up to execute the outbound file to PIEE.  
 
 
Mission Critical:
 
Yes
 
 
Benefits:
 
 Better reporting of GFP to PIEE
 
 
Users:
 
Yes (all users within Component/Agency) 

Completed – Release 2021.3.2 – 15 October 2021

01707 Data feed to SCORE PA AF: A4/HAF FH-AFHAF Removed
Description:
AF has manually tracked and recorded Controlled Cryptographic Items (CCI) device location/details on spreadsheets gathered from multiple systems. Request an automated report with specific data elements is sent to the HQ CCC centralized repository

Recommended:
Push automated report to HQ CCC centralized repository on a recurring basis.

Mission Critical:
IAW CNSSI 4001 the Departments are required to track and manage all COMSEC/CCI assets

Benefits:
Reduces time for individuals to process and pull a report, improves accuracy and accountability

Users:
 
Removed Per Emily Escobedo 23 March 2023
01706 ICP Catalog Roles Materiel Management SOCOM Done
Description:
 
With DPAS Release 2021.2, the ICP/Material Management Module gained the ability to perform cataloging functions across most of the existing ICP User Roles. This gives anyone with those roles the ability to change the catalog which impacts users across the SOCOM Enterprise. The new catalog capability in the ICP will negatively impact USSOCOM ability to maintain a cataloging standard across the SOCOM Enterprise.
 
Recommended:
 
Update all of the current ICP Roles to remove Catalog Menu/Functions. Change those roles to read-only access to the Catalog.  Add a New Cataloger Role with full access to the Catalog Stock Number, MFR Part Nbr, and LIN/TAMCN screens/menus.
 
Mission Critical:
 
Mission Critical - Without this new Cataloger Role, USSOCOM will not be able to enforce a catalog standard across the command. This will result in the same asset(s) getting cataloged in ways that will not stand up to audit scrutiny.
 
Benefits:
 
benefit is control of the catalog which will results in auditability. This also sets the catalog to a standard which allows DPAS system users to get to the new Enterprise Standard that will be leveraged as a result of DPAS TECH Refresh
 
Users:
 
This will impact all users within the USSOCOM since they are all users/consumers of our Catalog.

01705 DLMS 842 Functionality Enterprise SOCOM In Progress

Description:

For Supply Discrepancy (SD) reporting / review, the DPAS model relies on its customers to utilize WebSDR. This SCR requests DPAS add support for supply discrepancy management within DPAS eliminating the need to have logins / use WebSDR providing USSOCOM with a single platform to manage its logistic supply processes. DLM 4000.25 Volume 2, Chapter 17 provides the business rules for SDRs. Appendix 3 contains a list of the SD codes.

Recommended:

1. Modify DPAS to inbound the DLMS 842 A/W Supply Discrepancies / Followup transactions.
2. Provide a display of the supply discrepancies with the capability to review, reply, close, and print new, pending, and closed supply discrepancies within the Materiel Mgmt. module. The view must support the display of the reasons for the SDR. A single SDR can have as many as 3 discrepancies reported within a single SDR
3. The review and response should provide a text area to provide narrative to the response, and document attachment support.
4. The Search Criteria area should include: Document Nbr, Date Range, Status, Stock Nbr, Originator (RIC/DODAAC) as a minimum.
5. Provide the capability to outbound DLMS 842 A/R responses
6. The MM dashboard should show counts of open Supply Discrepancies by categories (New, 0-7 days, 8-14 days, 15-21 days, >21 days) providing the user with a quick link to those categories of SDRs.

Mission Critical:

Yes. USSOCOM requires a single logistics view of its supply actions within DPAS which includes supply discrepancies.

Benefits:

Providing DPAS customers with support for supply discrepancies will reduce the cost and time to manage / resolve them, thus providing the warfighter with a more responsive resolution to their SDRs

Users:

This change affects customers/users who operate the Materiel Mgmt module and receive supply discrepancies to action.
