Who gets it
No single contractor is published as this line's leader. 4 linked award records are listed below. This line's high-confidence links do not clear the floor for a published concentration index — at least 3 awards across 2 contractor families holding positive obligations, with positive net linked dollars. Why the crosswalk is partial.

The vertical scale does not start at zero: the baseline sits just below this program’s smallest year, so a low point on this line is not a small amount. Read the shape for direction and the grid below for the figures.

Asked vs spent: the PB2020 book requested $142.8M for FY2020; the PB2022 book reported $97.9M as actual total obligation authority — $44.9M below the request. 97.9 − 142.8 = -44.9 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description

Mission — Integrated Personnel and Pay System-Army (IPPS-A)

The Integrated Personnel and Pay System-Army Increment II (IPPS-A Inc II) provides an integrated, multi-Component, personnel and pay system that streamlines existing Human Resources (HR) systems and processes by enhancing efficiency and accuracy of personnel and pay procedures in support of 1.1 million Soldiers. This program is an essential building block to reform the Department of the Army towards achieving greater performance and affordability in support of the National Defense Strategy and the Congressional audit mandate. The IPPS-A program to date has completed a phased deployment of Military Human Resource and talent management capabilities across all Army components (Active, Guard and Reserve). This includes all Army National Guard units in the 54 states and territories into one single solution. The program has subsumed 120 systems/instances and six partial capabilities bringing the Army's total military force into a single HR authoritative system. In accordance with the Acquisition Strategy approved by the Army Acquisition Executive on 21 June 2022, the program office will incrementally release Army Military Payroll, additional Human Resource (HR) Capabilities (e.g., Archiving, Talent and Strength Management, and Audit), and HR Enhancements to the deployed baseline. In 4QFY24, IPPS-A began migration from the legacy infrastructure hosting solution with Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) to a Cloud Hosting solution. As part of our transition from Waterfall Development to an Agile Development Framework, the program is transitioning to the Software Acquisition Pathway. In 1QFY25, the program awarded the Solution Provider bridge contract to enable competition for the new Product Support and Delivery contract to be awarded in 1QFY26 that provides maintenance and system enhancements enabling subsumption of legacy systems. FY 2026 Base dollars in the amount of $164.600 million supports Agile software development and incremental delivery of additional capabilities for Army Military Payroll as well as additional HR capabilities to enable subsumption of 18 full and four partial additional legacy systems. These funds will continue cloud migration prior to the legacy DISA infrastructure end of life in FY28. These critical investments support the Army to be audit ready and achieve cost savings through cloud migration, legacy system subsumption and delivery of the Army Military Payroll capability. Funds also support other enabling infrastructure and software upgrades to include support for Identity, Credential, Access Management (ICAM) implementation achieving zero-trust compliance. In 1QFY26, the program will award the new Product Support and Delivery contract that provides maintenance and system enhancements enabling subsumption of legacy systems.

Award linkage is shown for 32 of 200 profiled companies — high- and medium-confidence USAspending matches, each row labeled; medium is the weaker evidence. why partial award coverage? →

Rows marked medium rest on evidence weaker than a program-level match, and of more than one kind. An account-based row, where the award drew from the same appropriation account as this program, is an association, not evidence that this program paid for the contract. Where the evidence is instead an FPDS acquisition-program tag or a subaward description, the program is established but which of its budget lines paid is not. An announcement link a recorded review did not leave standing is medium too. Only high rows rest on the contract naming this program with a recorded review upholding it and no recorded rejection or refutation applying.

Contractor concentration

No concentration index is published for this line. This line's high-confidence links do not clear the floor for a published concentration index — at least 3 awards across 2 contractor families holding positive obligations, with positive net linked dollars. An index below that floor is a fact about the sample, not about the market. Whatever further links this line carries are medium-confidence, and what each medium evidence path does and does not establish is set out in the methodology. Both bases are in the downloadable warehouse.
