reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1213155 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) serves as the Department of Defense (DOD) and federal government's centralized platform for procurement capabilities. Within the PIEE, various tools and features are available, including Wide Area Workflow, Electronic Data Access (EDA), MyInvoice, and functions like single sign-on and role-based access, tailored to specific job series. It integrates data from multiple applications, establishes standardized procurement hierarchy for purchase card and procurement processes, and covers pre-award, award, and post-award administration, payment, property management, contract closeout, and rapid application development and deployment. This research aims to examine and analyze the processes of software development program management, focusing on identifying lessons learned, evolutionary changes, and comparisons with similar efforts, while highlighting differences in outcomes. With the DOD's commitment to agile methodologies and robust cybersecurity integration, the PIEE suite embodies a legacy application that fosters extensive collaboration among services, defense agencies, and contractors, aiming to develop functional enterprise software at a reasonable cost to taxpayers. By incorporating these lessons learned and employing cross-functional management, defense leadership can effectively address challenges in software development and application delivery.
