Integrated Personnel and Pay System - Army

(Redirected from Integrated Personal and Pay System - Army)

Integrated Personnel and Pay System-Army (IPPS-A) is a United States Army acquisition program that seeks to integrate human resources and pay for all Army Soldiers. It provides online tools (although not that good and a little ghetto looking) and replaces older Army human resource systems. It also provides talent management capabilities and is essential to the Army's People Strategy. IPPS-A provides three main capabilities: Total Force Visibility, Talent Management and the ability to successfully complete audits.[1] It has successfully fielded to the Army National Guard (ARNG) and was scheduled to field to the active and reserve components by December 2021.[2]

On 17 January 2023 IPPS-A Release 3 is now available to soldiers in all three components — Active Army, Reserve, and National Guard.[3][4] For example, a soldier can show a Self-professed Talent to the Army, using the "TAM Soldier Workplace" tile in Release 3 IPPS-A;[5]: minute 45:52  This would then show up in the "Soldier Talent Profile".

Fielding was delayed in October 2021 during the system acceptance test; issues with importing data from existing personnel systems have delayed the live transfer of action requests to, or from, IPPS-A until September 2022.[6][7] The 20 September 2022 cutover to IPPS-A was delayed, as data from legacy Recruiting software and data to Defense Manpower Data Center software was not yet stable.[8][9]

New equipment training (NET)

IPPS-A is accessible via one's smartphone.[10][11]

Connecting data from, or to existing people thing systems[12][8][9]
17,110 soldiers and 8,000 family members was restored, except for 25 Soldiers. Coverage had been interrupted during the GoLive event one week earlier.[13]

Form DD214 and the Transition Processing System are a work in process for the week from 23 to 30 January 2023; discharge forms and separation orders required to get access to Veterans Affairs disability pay, retirement pensions, the G.I. Bill, etc. are unavailable for this period.[14]

A uniform payday schedule

Previous Army payroll software[25] allowed soldiers to select either a monthly payday, or a semimonthly payday. As part of IPPS-A, on 1 October 2022 the Army switches to a semimonthly payday, on the 15th and on the last day of each month, for long-term active-duty Soldiers.[26]
