Army Human Resource System
Abstract
The Army Human Resource System Project (099) contains the following programs: ArmyIgnitED Modernization managed by the Human Resource Command, Commanders Risk Reduction Dashboard managed by Program Executive Office Enterprise Information Systems (PEO EIS) and Regional Level Applications Software (RLAS) managed by United States Army Reserves (USAR). ArmyIgnitED: In support of recruiting and retention for a more educated workforce, ArmyIgnitED is an Army Credentialing and Continuing Education Services for Soldiers (ACCESS) program, 24/7 virtual financial management portal, and decision-support tool for 1) Active Duty, US Army Reserves and Army National Guard Soldiers to request Tuition Assistance (TA); 2) Cadets to request Scholarship payments and 3) Department of the Army (DA) Civilians and Apprentices to request professional development funds. ArmyIgnitED is an enterprise system that enforces eligibility for higher education funds and creates efficiencies with its automated processes. Soldiers, Scholarship Cadets, DA Civilians and Apprentices use it to pursue post-secondary educational goals and professional development objectives; Army Education Counselors use it to provide educational guidance; Career Program Managers and Training Managers use it to manage civilian training; and Academic Institutions use it to deliver degree and course offerings and to report user progress and degree completions for 206K Soldiers, Cadets and Civilians. ArmyIgnitED includes an automated registration tool that enforces policies and procedures, serves as a financial feeder for automated financial transactions, tracks academic / training progress within the system, and provides visibility of financial management and regulatory compliance of enrollment processes. ArmyIgnitED is hosted in the Air Force's Amazon Web Services (AWS) GovCloud until migration to an Army Cloud environment is decided, funded, and implemented. The United States Army Reserve (USAR) utilizes the Regional Level Application Software (RLAS) as an enterprise system for duty attendance, military pay, Soldier records management and training calendar management to access, transact, store, and manage Soldier and unit data required to conduct synchronized USAR operations. Unlike the Army Active Component (AC) where Soldier military pay is centrally managed and input at the installation level, the USAR utilizes RLAS to manage and input decentralized Soldier pay transactions at the unit level. RLAS consists of four modules: Pay, Personnel, Training, and Resource Management. Research and Development (R&D) authority and funding will provide RLAS with investment funds for necessary system development and system modifications. R&D funding amounts increase slightly towards the end of RLAS lifecycle (FY 2019 and 2020) in order to fully support the Integrated Pay and Personnel System - Army (IPPS-A) transition. Annually, USAR will provide sustainment funding. R&D authority and sustainment funding will meet the USAR Staff Judge Advocate (SJA) and Office of the Secretary of Defense Judge Advocate General (OTJAG) opinions regarding defense information Technology (IT) system for R&D activities. Necessary RLAS system development and system modifications include: 1) IPPS-A interface requirements; 2) implementing Microsoft .net Framework 4.5 standards; 3) implementing new Operating Systems (OS), system utilities and other technology products. Enhanced development and modification to RLAS will improve RLAS system capabilities and bring RLAS into compliance with various Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) and audit readiness requirements. RLAS will continue to process duty attendance, military pay, Soldier personnel transactions and training calendars until the system is fully subsumed by IPPS-A. Commanders Risk Reduction Dashboard (CRRD) has been transitioned to the Army Vantage (T05).
