The initial idea for the dashboard was a secure app that Army leaders could check from any approved device to access data across different functions. Because of its potential utility, the concept grew into the Army Leader Dashboard initiative. (Graphic by U.S. Army Acquisition Support Center (USAASC); SOURCE: PEO EIS)

GETTING HERE Te Army Leader Dashboard initiative is still quite young, having been established in July 2017. PEO EIS released the solicitation on May 10, 2018, and awarded five contracts for prototypes in mid-August. Tose five initial prototypes were narrowed to two by the end of 2018, with the final vendor selection expected by August 2019.


“Te two prototypes we currently have are actually on Gen. Milley’s desktop and Dr. Jette’s desktop, and have been for a


number of weeks,” Col. Jette said. Milley and Dr. Jette provide specific feedback about how the prototypes are performing and how well they demonstrate the correlations between data.


Tat feedback and rapid prototyping were made possible by an other transaction authority agreement, which provides a short- cut compared with the traditional acquisition process for certain programs. Such contracts can be especially important for tech- nology and software projects, in which solutions quickly become outdated or obsolete.
