  Description
  AFWay is unable to communicate with the DPAS "AFWay IT Custodian Access" web service.

  Recommended
  Update the process to provide the same information via DAAS Gex folders.  Data will be provided once daily via a scheduled job.  The output of which will be loaded to GEX for ftp to AFWay.

  Mission Critical
  The information that will be pulled from DPAS is critical to validate purchasing privileges within AFWay. This access management control is essential in ensuring only specific personnel may purchase IT assets from AFWay, the primary procurement vehicle for IT assets within the Air Force. The lack of a properly functioning interface between DPAS and AFWay inhibits the Air Force's ability to control IT spend across the enterprise.

  Benefits
  This solution will automate the process of consuming DPAS information into AFWay Database, which will save time, increase data accuracy, and increase asset accountability.

  Users
  This will affect all AFWay Users within and outside its (AFWay) component/agency.
