Defense Enterprise Accounting & Management System

The Defense Enterprise Accounting & Management System (DEAMS) is a Defense Business System acquisition program managed by the Department of Defense and primarily executed through the U.S. Air Force. This enterprise resource planning system aims to standardize business and financial processes across the Department of Defense, with Increment 1 representing the initial deployment phase. The program encompasses system integration, software development, infrastructure upgrades, and associated support services across multiple Air Force installations and commands.

Contract awards under DEAMS range from small purchases of IT hardware and software (typically $10,000-$200,000) to large-scale system integration efforts exceeding $200 million. Major prime contractors include CACI-ISS LLC ($226.8M for system integration), Lintech Global Inc. ($58.2M for ERP architecture services), and The Boeing Company ($1.3M+ for fleet support services). Common procurement vehicles include Solutions for Enterprise Wide Procurement V (SEWP V), Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), and Network-Centric Solutions II (NETCENTS II). While some contracts utilize 8(a) and small business set-asides, most awards have no set-aside designation. Primary funding agencies are the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center and Air Forces Europe and Africa, with significant work performed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and various European installations. Frequent purchases include Oracle software licenses, HP/Dell computing equipment, network infrastructure, and professional services for system integration and maintenance.
