Event: Aligning government contracts with agile software -- Acquisition NEXT

Acquisition Talk

In this episode of the Acquisition Talk podcast, I host an amazing panel on contracting practices for modern software with Florence Kasule (Director of Procurement, US Digital Service), Col. Eric Obergfell (Director of Contracts, Air Force Research Lab), and Caitlin Dohrman (President/GM, Improbable US National Security and Defense). The conversation hits a wide range of important topics that jump off of Mason GovCon's recent Acquisition Next report, including: - How defense contracts can align with agile/devops principles - Whether fixed-price contracts work for modular efforts - The role of leadership and training in business transformation - The potential for the "as a service" model - Tradeoffs between multiple award IDIQs and Commercial Solutions Openings This podcast was produced by Eric Lofgren.
