DCAPES

Abstract

Deliberate and Crisis Action Planning and Execution Segments (DCAPES) is the USAF system used to project air expeditionary forces. It enables the USAF to posture mission ready and equipped forces (organized in effects-based operational capability packages) to deliver air, space and cyberspace capabilities to Joint commanders worldwide. Technical requirements planned for Increment 2B include enabling the system to support Public Key Infrastructure and Public Key enabling as well as elimination of Social Security Account Numbers as the primary key for identifying Air Force military and civilian members by replacing it with the Electronic Data Interchange Personal Identifier. DCAPES funding will be executed against capabilities packaged into agile development projects for multiple incremental deliveries based on the warfighter's priorities. Additionally, funding will be used to cover downward directed federal mandates. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver the DCAPES system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605826F, 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605830F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, and 0605898F. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this Budget Activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
