HRM Structural Development

Abstract

AF-IPPS will be a web enabled, Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) based solution aligning with the Secretary of the Air Force (SECAF) "3-1" (Active, Reserve, and Air National Guard) initiative dated 15 Oct 10 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) and the Enterprise Information Web (EIW) effort, which will ensure compliance with the Business Enterprise Architecture (BEA). Current AF personnel and pay operations are implemented in separate domains and systems, each with independent business processes, technical solutions, and information technology (IT). The lack of an integrated system and antiquated technology contribute to thousands of personnel and pay errors and delays in customer support that drives total cost of ownership higher across system operations. AF-IPPS eliminates the current systems' problems by delivering an integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution that provides accurate and timely personnel and pay information for AF operations and superior customer service for the Airman. AF-IPPS will ensure that Air Force personnel and pay fully support the Federal Financial Management Improvement Act (FFMIA) FY17 auditability requirements. The AF-IPPS acquisition strategy is a two increment approach, with multiple, discrete, and severable capability releases delivered every 18-24 months. For Increment 1, the government will conduct a full and open competitive (best value) source selection with a single contract award for blueprinting, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation, integration with the government hosting environment, testing, delivery, and sustainment. Increment 2 will be a separate acquisition effort focused on the sustainment of the system. 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.
