Information Technology Management: Report on Defense Property Accountability System Controls Placed in Operation and Test of Operating Effectiveness for the Period September 1, 2004 Through April 30, 2005
Abstract
The Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Command, Control, Communication and Intelligence designated DPAS as a migratory system in Fiscal Year 1995 to bring DoD real and personal property assets under proper accountability and financial control. At that time, DoD real and personal property were considered high-risk areas by the audit community. DoD activities began migrating data to DPAS in 1995. By 2001, DPAS was nearly fully deployed throughout DoD. The Army, Navy, Marine Corps and 22 Defense Agencies adopted DPAS; the Air Force did not. DPAS is considered a legacy system that will be replaced by 2012 as part of Enterprise Resource Plan initiatives at the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Defense Logistics Agency. An acquisition strategy is currently being developed to determine the appropriate modernization strategy for DPAS. DPAS is administered by the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense, Acquisition, Technology and Logistics.
