| Description |
The current method of acquiring custom, innovative software through traditional contracting methods is an outdated practice. These traditional methods are time-consuming, and could be improved with the Air Force’s Kessel Run, an internal software development organization. With the Air Force’s Kessel Run, the time from software inception to operation can go from years to days. Unfortunately, neither most of the Air Force nor the rest of the Department of Defense (DoD) has yet to catch up to the forward thinking of those involved in the creation of Kessel Run. Most of the Air Force and the DoD are still outsourcing for most of their innovative acquisitions, whether it be research and design or product (software) development. This case study offers insight to the new organization and identifies the potential to apply the concepts learned during its creation to benefit other DoD organizations when considering insourcing as opposed to the traditional outsourcing acquisition approach. Subjects: Kessel Run; software development; United States Air Force (USAF); insource; outsource; acquisition; contracting; make-or-buy; Department of Defense (DoD) |
