Abstract

What has been the source of the U.S. defense’s advantage? Pointing to the 1970s-era second offset strategy, some say that the DoD’s true advantage rests in an ability to rapidly field and integrate new technologies at a scale none can match. The second offset strategy, though, was dominated by hardware-based or -reliant technologies, such as GPs positioning and stealth. The third offset strategy will rely on software-dominated, leap-ahead technologies. What does rapidly integrating software innovations look like for the DoD?
 
In this panel discussion you will learn
•    key reasons why DoD struggles to rapidly integrate software innovations
•    proven ways to bring software innovation to DoD’s doorstep
•    three software technologies that have been piloted in DoD settings
