DCIPS Disclaimer

The Defense Civilian Intelligence personnel System (DCIPS) formerly known as the Civilian Intelligence Personnel Management System (CIPMS) is an excepted service personnel management system jointly managed by the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Manpower and Reserve Affairs), and the DA Deputy Chief of Staff (DCS, G-2). Existing CIPMS policies and system flexibilities will continue to apply until such time as they are replaced by DCIPS regulations and related guidance, which will occur incrementally. Until all references can be updated the terms CIPMS and DCIPS will be used interchangeably.
