ADPAAS
Army Disaster Personnel Accountability and Assessment System (ADPAAS)
ADPAAS is the Army Disaster Personnel Accountability and Assessment System. In the event of a natural or man-made disaster. It is imperative that Army leadership is aware of the physical whereabouts of all Army employees and their Family Members. Your active involvement in assessing your personal and Family Members’ information will ensure that the Army will better facilitate with support. Using the information provided within the ADPAAS system, the Army can dispatch search and recovery crews, assign case managers to meet your displaced/evacuation needs, and provide a smooth and orderly return to your home location.
During a disaster or exercise, all affected personnel (Soldiers, DA Civilians, and NAF employees) and dependents will self-account using ADPAAS utilizing the following steps:
