Defense Enterprise Accounting Management System - AF (DEAMS)

Abstract

Defense Enterprise Accounting and Management System (DEAMS) is a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) Oracle based software configuration effort that will provide an auditable modern accounting and finance system. DEAMS is a Joint AF and United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) Enterprise Resource Program (ERP) that will replace existing accounting and finance legacy systems to provide core funds execution management functions consistent with financial management laws, regulations and policy, general ledger, funds management, payments, receivables, cost and revenues, and fiduciary reporting. DEAMS Increment 1, originally Spirals 1 and 2, was released to Scott AFB, Illinois as a Technology Demonstration. In July 2007, Spiral 1 was successfully fielded and used by over 700 users at Scott AFB and ANG units. Spiral 1 provides commitment accounting capability and has been used for three successive year-end closeouts (FY07-FY09). In May 2010, Spiral 2 was released to approximately 1,100 users at Scott AFB and DFAS-Limestone. Spiral 2 provides full general accounting capability to include investment funding, commitment accounting and cost accounting. Spiral 2 was successfully used to complete the FY10 end-of-year closeout and concludes the Technology Demonstration of DEAMS. Recent restructuring due to a critical change have integrated Spirals 3 and 4, originally Increment 2, into Increment 1. Although Spiral 3 and 4 have been rolled into Increment 1, no program requirements were modified as a result of the aforementioned critical change. Spirals 3 and 4 will leverage the capability released in Spirals 1 and 2 and will rollout world-wide to the remainder of USTRANSCOM and Operating AF Bases. Spiral 5, now Increment 2, will rollout to Air Force Space Command (AFSPC) and Air Force Material Command (AFMC) and will provide full general accounting capabilities with inclusion of AFSPC and AFMC unique requirements, such as Foreign Military Sales and Contingency Operations. DEAMS is compliant with the Clinger-Cohen Act, Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA), and integrates into Global Combat Support System-Air Force (GCSS-AF). Activities also include studies and analysis to support current program planning, execution, and future program planning. 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.
