Army Human Resource System (AHRS)

Abstract

Army Human Resource System (AHRS) is the Army's system of systems that provides commanders the necessary personnel information to make informed decisions on mobilized military personnel resources (both Active Duty and Reserve Component). The implementation of AHRS requires the development of an authoritative Army Corporate database to support the eventual migration to Integrated Personnel and Payroll System-Army (IPPS-A). However, major elements of AHRS are not planned to be subsumed into IPPS-A. AHRS consists of three major components: - Electronic Military Personnel Office (eMILPO) provides the U.S. Army with a reliable, timely, and efficient mechanism for performing Army personnel actions and managing strength accountability. The application provides visibility of the location, status, and skills of Soldiers both from a high level (tope of the system) and a unit level (bottom of the system). eMILPO delivers enhanced performance to the Soldier, providing superior data accuracy, and a more intuitive web-based approach resulting in increased productivity, quality, timeliness, security, and user satisfaction. It re-hosted the USC Title 10 functionality, formerly resident in the Standard Installation Division Personnel System-3 (SIDPERS) application, for migration to IPPS-A. Selected elements of eMILPO will need to be operated in parallel with IPPS-A until/unless IPPS-A is able to absorb all eMILPO funtionality. - Deployed Theater Accountability System (DTAS) is a personnel accountability system that enables the Combatant Commanders (COCOM) to meet Title 10 personnel accountability responsibilities. DTAS is residing on the Secret Internet Router Network (SIPRnet) and accounts for military and civilian personnel in a deployed theater by unit, day and location supporting force tracking and deployed Operations Tempo (OPTEMP) tracking. DTAS is a persistent system and will continue to exist Integrated Personnel and Pay System - Army (IPPS-A) migration. - The Tactical Personnel System (TPS)is a stand-alone system that supports personnel accountability for task organization/manifests and jump manifests used by tactical units. The system interfaces with DTAS, allowing Soldiers to be loaded into DTAS in mass upon arrival in theater. TPS will continue to exist Integrated Personnel and Pay System - Army (IPPS-A) migration. -Personnel Transformation (PT)- Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)- The Army's Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) provides a data integration service in which data can be extracted from the legacy human resource systems and transferred to DIMHRS. The ESB will be a middleware application which will provide a single interface to and from DIMHRS from the Army Legacy Systems. The ESB will provide the infrastructure for the integration of new and existing applications by allowing systems and applications to easily exchange information across different environments and platforms. It will also form the information bridge between DIMHRS, the Army Legacy Systems, and external systems to create more streamlined systems in support of the military mission and personnel transformation goals. FY12 funding procures configuration management software, test and evaluation software, life cycle replacement of legacy equipment and Continuity of Operations (COOP) equipment and software to support Engineering Change Packages (ECPs)/System Change Packages (SCPs)/Interim Change Packages (ICPs) in support of eMILPO and DTAS.
