It means "a necessary feature" or "an essential part" of something, I think so.

For instance, be part and parcel of something means to be a necessary feature(part) of something.
Honesty is part and parcel of his character.
So... it means that one of his essential feature is honesty, he is an honest man!
So, do you get it now? I think you do
