Abstract: To respond to evolving threats, DOD must develop and deliver software-based weapon and IT systems quickly. In April 2023, GAO published a report examining the extent to which DOD implemented software modernization recommendations from the Defense Science Board and Defensive Innovation Board and positioned itself to pursue future software modernization reforms. In large part, these recommendations—and DOD’s planned and ongoing efforts—focused on providing innovative software-based capabilities to the warfighter by tailoring DOD’s traditional processes, such as streamlining acquisition processes, employing digital transformation, piloting novel funding approaches, and providing just in time training. Drawing on recent GAO work, this presentation will focus on DOD’s efforts to date to modernize how it develops and acquires software and will also offer observations on DOD’s planned software modernization efforts and GAO’s recommendations to improve DOD’s ability to implement them.
