The Department of the Navy (DON) Application & Database Management System (DADMS) is a web-enabled repository that supports DON IT Portfolio Management. It:
 
  - is designated by SECNAV Instruction 5230.14, IT Portfolio Management, and SECNAV Instruction 5000.36A, IT Application and Data Management, as the authoritative data source for DON IT system, application, database, and network inventories.
  - provides Functional Area Managers and Echelon II Commands with a common database to support requirements, PPBE, and acquisition activities consistent with Goal 5 of the DON IM/IT Strategic Plan - ensure Naval IM/IT investments are selected, resourced and acquired to deliver affordable enhancements to warfighter effectiveness.
 
DADMS is the DON's repository for managing software applications and IT portfolios by functional areas.  Basically it contains a list of all applications (both COTS and GOTS) reported in use by the Navy and Marine Corps, who "owns" them, who uses them, etc.  Applications are managed by functional area and must be approved for use via the Functional Area Manager (FAM) process prior to being procured and allowed on Navy networks.
 
DADMS can be accessed via the Internet at: https://www.dadms.navy.mil/ by both government and contractor personnel (with a sponsor).
