All of Government Contract Spend (AGCS) for Combatant …



Transition from DCMO managed AGCS reports, to automated Reports produced by DPAP: As a joint effort, Defense Procurement and Acquisition Policy (DPAP) has worked with the Joint Staff and the Deputy Chief Management Office (DCMO) to transition and sustain the set of reports provided to the Combatant Commands (COCOMs), known as the “All of Government Contract Spend” (AGCS) reports. The reports will include substantially the same data as those that were provided through email by the DCMO – although users will see some standardization of formats across the reports. Initial reports will include data from the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) for actions awarded by DoD, State, and USAID for each of the COCOM areas of responsibility (AORs). Unlike the existing AGCS reports, the new reports will be updated with the most current FPDS data when they are run. Planned future enhancements to the reports include adding data reported to FPDS from all other civilian agencies, as well as including grants and financial assistance data awarded in the specific AORs. Starting in late April 2015, the AGCS reports will be able to be accessed directly using the DPAP Procurement Business Intelligence Service (PBIS). This is an online tool that is CAC enabled. Users will be able to access the reports at any time using their CAC. For broader information on what PBIS is, please visit the DPAP dedicated webpage and learn more.Details for YOU, as an AGCS Report Consumer: RECEIVE an email!Based upon distribution lists provided by the DCMO, you have been identified as a consumer of the AGCS reports. Because the PBIS application is controlled by CAC access, you must have an individual account established in PBIS. In advance of this transition, DCMO AGCS support staff coordinated with the AGCS consumers to collect the information necessary to accomplish this. Within the next two weeks, you should receive an email from the PBIS systems administrator when your account has been created. Users who are granted access should expect to receive an email titled, “Your account request for Procurement BI has been approved”, no later than April 27, 2015. This email will provide the following details:Confirmation that your account has been approved.The URL to bookmark and use to access PBIS online.Instructions to select your email certificate when logging in.Location of where the AGCS reports can be found and where other user notifications (e.g. System Downtime messages) can be found.DPAP PBIS support Point of Contact for issues accessing the URL or the reports.If you have not received an email by April 27, 2015, but feel you should have – please follow the instructions provided here to gain access to PBIS.
