DAI Benefits Address financial management material weaknesses and deficiencies DAI is a single OFFM compliant solution for the Defense Agencies Provide End-to-End interoperability, internal controls and visibility DAI offers end-to-end visibility and management Streamline interagency accounting Through common use of U.S. Standard General Ledger (USSGL) Chart of Accounts, SFIS, standardized business processes and data standards Enhance financial analysis and timely decision making - DAI provides real time access to accurate, timely and authoritative financial data Reduce data reconciliation requirements DAI allows agencies to free up scarce agency resources to perform more value added activities Improve financial management business processes By automating labor intensive manual tasks 6
DAI Lessons Learned DAI is more than a financial system - It is a core business system Particularly Procure to Pay (P2P) and requires Contracting Office (and more broadly, Acquisition) involvement Business Process Redesign Using DAI Implementing DAI will challenge how you are currently processing your business, the key is to understand it and adjust your business processes to fully leverage it! Practice Makes Perfect More an Agency practices their business process in DAI the better! Communication Must ensure that there is constant communication between the Agency, DFAS and the PMO pre and post-production. Communication internal to the Agency and its users as well as the business partners external to the Agency Executive Sponsorship Assigning an Agency executive to be the advocate for DAI within the Agency has proven to lead to successful deployments Help Desk/Subject Matter Experts/Training It is recommended that agencies assign a set of individuals that will become subject matter experts in DAI and be available for training and help desk Reports Get familiar with OBIEE and the standard reports offered by DAI before user acceptance testing Post Implementation Support Start planning for post implementation support early. Establishing a help desk and a core group of subject matter experts is critical Conversion Agency s should focus on data cleansing during tri-annual reviews. Finance and acquisition work together to close out contracts 7

APS History Original direction was to build a pilot to keep all DOD activities within the integrated ERP Scope included: Contract writing Online solicitation/ Vendor Bid Submission Vendor Invoice/Receipt and Acceptance Timeline Rapid prototype/pilot began in December of 2008 Deployed APS capability at BTA in June of 2009 Deployed APS at USUHS in October 2010 Deployed APS at DTRA in October 2011 (initial usage for simplified acquisition) 10
What is DAI APS? DAI APS Solution = Standard Oracle P2P + Additional Modules + DoD Extensions APS Solution expands original P2P Core capabilities to include: Built 11.5.10 platform Federalized Contract Writing via Procurement Contracts coupled with Standard Procurement Solicitation generation and distribution via I-Sourcing Vendor integration via I-supplier portal to support Electronic Signatures and Invoicing Series of DoD enhancements to optimize and federalize Solution Summary: The integrated DAI APS solution begins with an initial request for goods or services routed through appropriate approvals with an automatic recording of the commitment. The approved requisition can then be AutoCreated to initiate the strategic sourcing process or to facilitate award authoring. When the authoring process is complete and the award is signed, the obligation is recognized and contract execution is initiated 11
Advanced Procurement Suite (APS) The DAI APS Solution provides end-to-end solution for DOD contracting and capabilities integrated with Core P2P functions to provide a streamlined contract management solution including: Decentralized Requisitions via I-procurement directly feed contractual demand Workload Management (Assignment and Reporting) Solicitation Creation and Publishing to Vendor community via I-Sourcing Being explored by DTRA for future use Contract Creation, Review, Approval via automated approval workflow complete with electronic signature Integration with FPDS-ng, EDA and CCR PDS 2.2.1 Compliant Contract Form Generation, Review, Approval SF-1449, SF-33, DD-1155, SF-26 Contract Modification Review, Approval via automated approval workflow SF-30 Active contracts report to manage status of APS contract actions APS contract data validation engine End-to-end visibility, internal controls, data validations all in one application Clause logic and maintenance solution FAR DFARS Local Clauses Automated Vendor Invoice Submission via either the DAI WAWF Portal and I-supplier/ WAWF interface 12
Benefits of integration from user feedback Benefits of Integrating Procurement (APS) into the Financial Management System (DAI) On-line Funds Validation Immediate on-line verification of funds availability when entering requisitions and contracts Common Lookups Shared data sets ensuring accuracy (POETs, Suppliers, Terms, Employees, DoDAACs, Agency IDs, Product Service Codes, NAICS, etc ) Single Point of Entry Information flows from Requisition to Contract to Payment. Interface with EDA, WAWF and FPDS-NG. No redundant data entry. Visibility Ability to view, report and directly link detailed procurement data with financial management data (from requisition through contract to invoice/ disbursement to projects and general ledger posting) 13
User friendliness APS challenges from user feedback Cost type contracts 14
