CPAIS serves as the USDA subsidiary ledger for owned real
property and the primary inventory reporting and portfolio
management tool for all real property. CPAIS will maintain
data elements necessary to track and manage owned real property,
leased property, General Services Administration (GSA) assignments,
and inter agency agreements. CPAIS will record the acquisition,
depreciation, and disposal of a real property asset, while
the corporate financial system and the procurement subsidiary
systems (e.g., the Integrated Acquisition System and the Purchase
Order System) will continue to generate the financial transactions
associated with the acquisition and use of real property.
CPAIS will also track specific data elements necessary to
meet external mandatory reporting requirements and ad hoc
query requirements. CPAIS will interface with GSA STAR web site,
and electronically file the Federal Real Property Profile
(FRPP).
