The Challenges of Digital Modernization in the US Defense Sector

The Department of Defense (DoD) treats information as a strategic asset. The power of this asset lies in the ability to transform information into operational intelligence. As in other economic sectors, the ability to make sense of information faster than one’s opponent represents an operational advantage. In this presentation, we will discuss some of the challenges of incorporating the power of new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) into a complex and dynamic operating environment. We will discuss some principles that can help the practitioner strategically integrate new technologies within the organization, using the operationally intense and high-stakes environment of the Defense sector.
