Why Should We Care?• Over the next 5 years, DOD expects to invest $357B on Major
Acquisition Programs.
• When reviewing and assessing Programs, GAO found most do not
deliver capabilities when promised—often forcing Warfighters to
spend additional funds on maintaining legacy systems.
Program Comment Program Comment
NECC Terminated after $300M
JTRS SDR; but what happened?
DCGS-N Transitioned from everything ISR to software only in CANES
NCES SOA; Still in Development
Will the $357B produce the same results?
APPLE
The New Model—It’s iTunes Stupid!
The Right SOA!
So What?•What does the Government need to do well?
• What should industry do?
• Operate their Networks!
• Secure their Networks!
• Define Operator Requirements! Simplify the Requirements Process.
• Frequently Ask the Operator what would make him/her more effective?
•Define the SOA.
• Contract for Apps! Work on a ‘SIX’ month schedule.
• Download and Secure Apps that meet Requirements!
• Work within the SOA! Deliver on a ‘SIX’ month schedule.• Build the Apps to satisfy Requirements!• Make a profit? Competition … when App is downloaded and in use!
