Summary
The Department of Defense Chief Information Officer (DoD CIO) is seeking industry input through a Request for Information (RFI) regarding methodologies for conducting external assessments as part of the Software Fast Track (SWFT) initiative. This initiative aims to expedite the Authorization to Operate (ATO) process for software adoption within the DoD by utilizing third-party assessments and Software Bills of Materials (SBOM). The RFI is intended for market research and does not constitute a solicitation for proposals. Contractors with expertise in software security verification, risk assessment, and cybersecurity are encouraged to respond, particularly those who can demonstrate innovative solutions and relevant experience in external assessment methodologies that align with the objectives of the SWFT initiative.
