CON-IT System Development
Abstract
Initiated in FY17 CON-IT's agile development execution is resulting in delivery of contracting capability to operational contracting officers (COs). CON-IT system capabilities continue to be developed and enhanced through completion of development sprint cycles in accordance with our agile software development strategy. The CON-IT Integrated Program Office (IPO) has established early user engagement through a series of subject matter expert familiarization events, in which system capabilities produced from each sprint cycle are tested by operational COs and valuable user feedback is collected and incorporated into our requirements backlog. Early Operational Capability (EOC) was achieved in FY18 with initial deployment of current CON-IT capabilities to 12AF (AFSOUTH) and subsequent EOC deployment to 8 additional operational locations across the Air Force in every MAJCOM, except US Air Forces Europe. In addition, the CON-IT IPO will integrate the contracting workforce schoolhouses into our training activities; provide initial training to the instructors; and set the training curriculum for new Air Force CO accessions. The completion of the 8 early deployments and training curriculum greatly aids in our risk reduction and organizational change management efforts. Future system development continues to be planned through an iterative process of sprint/release planning and backlog grooming activities between our stakeholder partners which ensures that the capabilities developed meet our end users' needs and increase mission success.
