1. New Approaches to Acquisition of Defense Business Systems
April 3, 2019

2. DoDI 5000.75 Change 2 WHY: WHEN/HOW: WHAT DID WE ENHANCE:
To respond to the needs of the user community, who acknowledged certain challenges implementing the policy in their organizations
To address gaps in the existing policy and areas that could be strengthened and clarified
To recognize continuous process improvement, agility, and lessons learned as well as rapidly evolving acquisition practices for software / IT, and the need for simple administrative updates
WHEN/HOW:
April 2018 – present
Collaborative working group sessions with relevant functional, acquisition, and chief management officer stakeholders
Working group sessions led by OUSD(A&S) in partnership with OCMO and DoD CIO
WHAT DID WE ENHANCE:
More flexibility to tailor governance processes and to delegate down to the lowest level possible
Incremental CCA compliance
Pushing more collaboration between key stakeholders early on
More focus on the “sustainment” portion of the lifecycle – or capability support – and how to responsibly manage and govern IT for the long-term without having to necessarily re-start the process again
More of a push on integrated testing and continuous cybersecurity focus
