Defense Software Acquisitions: Changes to Requirements, Oversight, and Tools Needed for Weapon Programs : Government Accountability Office (GAO) , July , 2023
From the report: “The Department of Defense’s (DOD) ability to respond to evolving threats is increasingly determined by its ability to rapidly develop and deploy software. Efforts to modernize DOD’s software acquisition include a transition to Agile development principles from a traditional waterfall approach. Agile is intended to deliver working software to users in less than a year and add capability iteratively based on user needs. In contrast, the waterfall approach could take over 10 years to deliver software and involves greater risk.”
