How To Use This Site

Each page in this pathway presents a wealth of curated knowledge from acquisition policies, guides, templates, training, reports, websites, case studies, and other resources. It also provides a framework for functional experts and practitioners across DoD to contribute to the collective knowledge base. This site aggregates official DoD policies, guides, references, and more.

DoD and Service policy is indicated by a BLUE vertical line.

Directly quoted material is preceeded with a link to the Reference Source.

      Team of Teams

      Key Partners: Unity of Effort for National Security

      • Core Fusion Cell supporting larger Software Alliance; grow into deadly-effective network; achieve more together than alone
      • More Connections = More Collective Problem-Solving
      • More Connections = More Critical Feedback

      Why you?

      • You are empowered and Front Line for the acquisition community
      • You are closest to problem

      What will we do?

      • Enable successful SWP execution and longevity
      • Focus on solving pain points/problems
      • Prioritize and attack enterprise backlog of SWP impediments
      • Ask USD and SAE as needed for top cover & empowerment

      Competitive advantage of an alliance / network?

      • Connecting key influencers to co-develop smarter, bureaucracy-busting guidance & decision support for MAJCOMs and PEOs
      • Rapid info-flow unhampered by bureaucracy and silos

      Fusion Cells rapidly acquire, interpret, and distribute actionable information to acquisition units and personnel closest to the problem.  We turn raw data into effective action as quickly as possible.

      Team

            Common purpose, shared consciousness, trust, and empowered execution. 

            Bias for Action.

      A&S and the SW Modernization Senior Steering Group are conducting an outreach campaign to remove PEO impediments and enable adoption of the SWP/DevSecOps.
