Defense Priorities and Allocations
System (DPAS)
The purpose of DPAS is to (1) assure
the timely availability of industrial resources to meet current national
defense and emergency preparedness program requirements; and (2) provide an
operating system to support rapid industrial response in a national emergency.
In pursuing these goals we attempt to minimize disruptions to normal commercial
activities.

The Department of Commerce web page has issued a great deal of excellent
information concerning the DPAS program including the revised DPAS Booklet
which provides the latest official guidance on the DPAS process. It will be of
extreme value to all personnel involved with the DPAS process. Additionally
there is an excellent DPAS CBT available through the DAU.
