Defense Enterprise Accounting Management System Increment 1 (DEAMS Inc 1)

Abstract

MDAP/MAIS Code: N87 Defense Enterprise Accounting and Management System (DEAMS) is a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS), Oracle-based software implementation effort that will provide an auditable, modern accounting and finance system. DEAMS is a Joint United States Air Force (USAF) and United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Program that will replace many existing accounting and finance legacy systems and will 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 is compliant with the Clinger-Cohen Act, Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA), and integrates into Global Combat Support System-Air Force (GCSS-AF). When fully deployed, DEAMS will bring the Air Force in compliance with the Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR) requirement in the 2010 NDAA. DEAMS Inc 1 is planned as an eight-release program: Release 1 - Air Mobility Command (AMC) without Transportation Working Capital Funds (TWCF) Release 2 - AMC with TWCF, Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) Rome Release 3 - Air Combat Command (ACC), Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC), Air Education and Training Command (AETC) Release 4 - Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC), and Air National Guard (ANG) Geographically Separated Units (GSUs) to include DFAS Limestone, Air Force District of Washington (AFDW), Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC), U.S. Air Force Academy (USAFA), Pacific Air Forces (PACAF), and DFAS Japan Release 5 - U. S. Air Forces in Europe (USAFE), and DFAS Europe Release 6 - Air Force Space Command (AFSPC), Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC), and DFAS Columbus Release 7 - Conversion programs Release 8 - Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC), funded with U.S. Transportation Command Working Capital Funds DEAMS Inc 1 is transitioning to the Operations and Support (O&S) phase post Milestone C to support deployed locations. As reported in the November 30, 2015 Defense Acquisition Executive Summary Report and November 2015 significant change notification letters to the congressional defense committees, the DEAMS program did not meet the original estimate schedule threshold for Full Deployment Decision (FDD) in August 2015. A September 30, 2015 Acquisition Decision Memorandum (ADM) directed the Air Force to return in February 2016 for an FDD review. This additional time is required to accommodate a verification of the ongoing mitigation actions to address the findings of the July 1, 2015 Initial Operational Test and Evaluation Report, as outlined in the September 30, 2015 ADM. Postponing FDD from August 2015 to February 2016 does not impact DEAMS pre-deployment activities, funding or schedule. DEAMS Inc 1 capability will continue to be deployed in FY2016-2017 as approved by the Milestone Decision Authority. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning.
