AF Integrated Personnel and Pay System (AF-IPPS)

Abstract

AF-IPPS will be a web enabled, Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS)-based solution aligning with the Secretary of the Air Force (SECAF) "3 to 1" (Regular Air Force [RegAF], Air National Guard [ANG], and Air Force Reserve [AFRes]) initiative dated October 15, 2010 that will integrate many existing personnel and pay processes into one self-service system. The system represents the AF commitment to modernizing business practices and providing enhanced support for today's service members and their families. AF-IPPS will align with Department of Defense (DoD) data standards for personnel, pay, and accounting, including the Common Human Resource Information Standards (CHRIS), which will ensure compliance with the Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA). AF-IPPS will provide Enterprise Information Web (EIW) services. The AF-IPPS program will be bound by using the BEA "Hire-to-Retire" (H2R) construct. The purpose of AF-IPPS is to provide the AF with a sustainable, cost-effective, auditable and regulatory compliant method of effectively capturing and maintaining personnel information so that Service members are paid accurately and on-time without requiring repetitive action or onerous paperwork, while allowing commanders/managers to easily access pertinent information. The goal of AF-IPPS is to fully integrate personnel and pay management for the AF's Total Force (RegAF, ANG, and AFRes). The future state will be characterized by streamlined, Total Force business processes; efficient and accurate management of pay entitlements; auditable financial statements with regard to military pay; improved access to accurate and timely personnel data for authorized users; and a modernized IT systems environment that is cost-effective and can adapt to future needs. AF-IPPS's customers include approximately 507,000 AF Service members across all components (330,000 RegAF, 107,000 ANG, and 70,000 AFRes) as well as thousands of military leaders of different ranks, specialties, and career fields who are responsible for the conduct of AF operations that rely on these services to ensure Service members with the appropriate skill sets are deployed where needed at home and on the battlefield. Congress, the rest of the DoD, and other federal agencies all rely on accurate AF Human Resources (HR) data to make key decisions that affect how the US military is organized, funded, deployed, and maintained. 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.
