P1 Organizationally, in the DoD and Internal

Within the DoD

Platform One is currently considered part of the Air Force, and was selected as the Executive Agent for DevSecOps execution within the DoD. Under the leadership of the Chief Software Officer, Platform One was selected as the first approved DoD Enterprise DevSecOps managed services within the DoD by the DoD CIO and OUSD A&S.

Basically, our use of live system demos instead of PowerPoint charts earned us a lot of street cred.

As Executive Agent, we tie into several other enterprise initiatives, and P1 is a large part of the overall Software Ecosystem in the DoD. We are building the platform that most other software factories utilize to deliver software rapidly and continuously, and most of the other organizations seen in this ecosystem utilized either our Big Bang or Party Bus offerings (more details in a later section).

Our Sister Org, Cloud One

Cloud One is the Enterprise Solution for Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). They work with the industry leaders in IaaS (Amazon, Microsoft, etc) to provide a secure government option to government customers. They act as a brokers of accounts to rapidly accelerate the timeline for getting started for new program offices. P1 utilized C1 by having AWS Govcloud and Microsoft Azure Government accounts provisioned and regulated by C1 for our unclassified environments. Secure infrastructure is a huge part of securing the supply chain of software development and delivery.

Historical Efforts in the DoD

We are riding on the shoulders of giants, and doing our best to build upon their successes. For a detailed background on the historical ecosystem, please check out Section 3 of our CONOPS
