On this episode, an extended discussion with Danielle Metz, the deputy DoD chief information officer for information enterprise. Metz explains how Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Oracle will actually compete for work under the up to $9 billion contract, in an approach that's novel for government procurement. Federal News Network reported on the key details of this interview in mid-December, when the coversation was first recorded. This episode of On DoD contains the full interview.

On Friday, the federal IT world got some long awaited news about the future of cloud computing in DoD. The department picked four companies for spots on its upcoming Joint Warfighter Cloud Capability contract, expected to be worth several billion dollars. But the names of the companies are about all we do know. After months of market research, the Pentagon is keeping a tight lid on how the contract will actually work. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu has been following DoD's enterprise cloud saga as it's unfolded over the last several years, broke the story on Friday, and joined the Federal Drive with analysis.

The last vestiges of the long-running legal dispute surrounding the Pentagon's JEDI Cloud contract faded away this week. The Supreme Court declined to hear Oracle's challenge to how the contract was structured. Meanwhile, DoD is closing in on a contract that will replace JEDI. DOD cloud officials say they've finished market research for the Joint Warfighter Commercial Cloud program. And as Federal News Network's Jared Serbu reports, they expect to make a decision on which companies will be part of the new multi-cloud contract by the end of this month.

One of the biggest and most bipartisan bills is ready for mark-up in the Senate. The JEDI Cloud contract's death leads to life...elsewhere. And as the Intelligence Community continues working toward diversity, we have a status report.

In today's Federal Newscast, the Pentagon is giving other cloud service providers to participate in new contract after it cancelled the JEDI Cloud project.

Pentagon JEDI Cloud Deal, Didi China IPO, US Exits / China Enters Afghanistan, Japan Defends Taiwan

Chinese ride-hailing app Didi Chuxing has sparked a sell-off on its first trading day in New York after Beijing authorities ordered a cyber security review into the company. We hear from French Economy Minister Bruno Le Maire who voices confidence that the new global corporate tax deal will be endorsed and welcomed across both Europe and the U.S. The Pentagon annuls a deal with Microsoft secured during the Trump administration. The Jedi Cloud contract, worth $10bn, will now spark a bidding war with Amazon. In energy news, the Opec+ output policy stalemate forces oil prices to slide from their six-year high. Saudi Arabia's Energy Minister Abdulaziz Bin Salman tells CNBC that the cartel remains united. And Chinese Tesla rival, Xpeng, has launched its Hong Kong IPO, raising $1.8bn.

After a long and bitter legal dispute, the Defense Department has opted to cancel its signature cloud computing contract. The Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure deal, known a JEDI, had been awarded to Microsoft and was protested by Amazon. Now the whole project will be replaced. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu had the latest on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

Kevin O'Neill calls in for hour one to discuss ESPN's decision to remove Rachel Nichols from the NBA Finals before talking violence in Chicago and the Pentagon's canceling of the JEDI Cloud contract. Russell Rhoads calls in for hour two to discuss the rise in ransomware attacks, the anonymity of Bitcoin, and much more.

Yesterday, a federal judge made a long-awaited ruling in the long-running JEDI Cloud saga. And it was not the one the Defense Department wanted. The Court of Federal Claims says Amazon Web Services can proceed with its claims that the JEDI contract was tainted by improper political influence. That means the multi-billion dollar contract – which has already been delayed by years of litigation – is in for even more delays, if not outright cancellation. Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu has covered the JEDI saga every step of the way, and he’s here now to explain the latest.

You may or may not get a white Christmas. But you can count on a new battle in the war among Microsoft, Amazon and the Defense Department over the Jedi cloud computing contract. Now Microsoft and DOD have petitioned the court to dismiss Amazon's latest protest of the award, which Microsoft got and Amazon didn't. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu joined the Federal Drive with more.

The government lawyers defending the Pentagon’s JEDI Cloud lawsuit have needed some good news lately. And yesterday, they got it. A federal appeals court ruled in DoD’s favor, roundly rejecting a challenge from Oracle America, one of the cloud providers who’d been excluded from final round of JEDI bidding. That leaves only one federal lawsuit still pending against the multibillion dollar cloud contract. Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu has been covering the JEDI legal saga and he joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin to talk about the latest.

There’s no telling when the Defense Department might finally have its JEDI Cloud up and running, but the Army’s not waiting. Service IT leaders said they’re building cloud architectures that can reach from the office to the tactical edge. And that sort of infrastructure is also prompting big changes to how the Army buys and develops software. Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu had details on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

The details behind a multi-billion dollar Defense Department bid protest keep getting stranger. And no, we’re not talking about the JEDI Cloud contract this time. U.S. Transportation Command has released new details on the reasons why it decided to pursue corrective action on DoD’s $7 billion household goods moving contract, and then changed its mind. But as Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu discovered, those reasons are very hard to square with what we know about the bidder involved.

For the last several months, most of the legal controversy around DOD’s much-contested JEDI Cloud contract has centered on the legal fight between DoD and Amazon. But remember Oracle’s JEDI challenge? It’s still going on. A federal appeals court was supposed to hear oral arguments in that case on Friday, but they were called off because of protests in the nation’s capital. Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin to talk about the arguments Oracle will be making, once it’s safe for the court to reopen.

It started with a lot of promise, but now the experiment looks like it's over. The Defense Business Board, an outside advisory group, recommends eliminating the chief management officer's position, inaugurated in 2008. For the closer term, DOD officials are telling industry and one another, prepare for flatter budgets than they've been used to for the last few years. With more on what's been happening in DOD, the Federal Drive with Tom Temin spoke with Federal News Network's Jared Serbu and Scott Maucione.

The Defense Department says it feels vindicated by this week’s long-awaited inspector general report on the JEDI Cloud contract. And yes, the report is favorable to DoD on some of the biggest questions that have surrounded the procurement. But it’s not as though investigators gave JEDI a perfectly clean bill of health either. Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu has been reading and writing about the IG’s findings, and he joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss.

More upheaval for DoD’s JEDI Cloud contract. Late last week, the Pentagon told a federal judge it now wants to take corrective action on the contested, multibillion dollar procurement. It’s not entirely clear what that means for JEDI’s future. But one thing’s for certain: it will cause yet another delay in a procurement process that’s already stretched on for nearly two years. Federal News Network’s Jared Serbu has been following the case, he joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss some of his findings.

The Defense Department's attempt to award a cloud computing contract known has JEDI has become an epic drama. The show hit intermission last month when a federal judge issued an injunction, stopping work DoD had started with winning bidder Microsoft. How did Amazon, the losing bidder prevail? For analysis the Federal Drive with Tom Temin turned to procurement attorney Joseph Petrillo of Petrillo and Powell.

Last week, a federal judge issued an injunction that blocks the Defense Department from moving forward with its JEDI Cloud contract. It's going to be another couple of weeks before we see unsealed court documents that explain the exact reasons for the decision. But one thing's for sure: it's yet another big setback for the JEDI program. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu has been following the JEDI saga for the past two years, he joined the Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss where things stand.

Under a law Congress passed two years ago, the Pentagon is supposed to give losing contractors a lot more details about why their bids weren't chosen. But according to Amazon Web Services, the Defense Department flat-out ignored that law after it awarded the JEDI Cloud contract to Microsoft. AWS said it asked more than 200 questions and didn't get a single substantive answer. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu has been talking to legal experts about what that alleged violation might mean for the case, and for the future of the debriefing process. Hear his findings on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

We're getting our first look at the legal arguments behind Amazon's challenge to the Pentagon's JEDI contract. The cloud computing giant says it's clear it had a technical approach that was better than Microsoft's, and that it should have won the contract. And lawyers say AWS would have won if it weren't for a series of errors that can only be explained by improper political influence. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu has been following the JEDI saga, and he joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin for the latest details.

The Defense Department is about to head to court to defend its multi-billion dollar JEDI Cloud contract — again. Amazon Web Services announced last week it plans to file a bid protest lawsuit, challenging DoD's surprise decision to award the JEDI contract to Microsoft. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu has been following the latest turns in the JEDI saga, and he joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to talk about what we know and what we still don't.

The two-year procurement saga known as the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure, or JEDI, has been awarded, but it's far from over. The Defense Department picked Microsoft for its infrastructure cloud computing environment in a surprise decision late last week. But the 10-year contract that could be worth as much as $10 billion remains veiled in drama.Federal News Network's Jason Miller and Jared Serbu have been following JEDI since the beginning and they both joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin for the latest.

When the Department of Defense (DoD) first issued an RFP for the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure (“JEDI”) last November, Oracle almost immediately filed a lawsuit claiming that the RFP process violated federal procurement law. After being removed from consideration, Oracle continued to go to court and lost on the grounds that Oracle failed to meet the requirements. Oracle has since appealed that ruling, but on Friday, the DoD announced that it is awarding the $10B JEDI cloud contract to Microsoft over AWS. In this podcast, Oracle Practice Leader, Jeff Lazarto discusses what this means for Oracle and how Oracle’s persistence in the matter could impact its reputation.

One part of the Defense Department is pushing gamely forward with the JEDI cloud procurement. Another part of DoD is investigating whether the procurement is fair and above board. Maybe the biggest question is if and when if comes out, will anyone use it. BDO managing director Larry Allen joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin for some perspective.

The impending award of the Pentagon's JEDI Cloud contract has consumed the attention of a good portion of the Defense IT community. But when it comes to cloud migrations, the Navy isn't waiting for JEDI, which is no sure thing. The service has just finished moving its gigantic enterprise resource planning system to a commercial cloud environment. As Federal News Network's Jared Serbu reports, it's one of the biggest moves to the cloud in North American history.

The Defense Department tried to set the record straight about its controversial cloud computing initiative called the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure, or JEDI. But DoD Chief Information Officer Dana Deasy may have hit upon what could be another sticking point for the JEDI program. In his weekly feature, the Reporter's Notebook, Federal News Network Executive Editor Jason Miller writes about why the JEDI procurement in remains murky as Defense Secretary Mark Esper begins his programmatic review. Hear more on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

There are still a lot of unanswered questions about the future of the Pentagon's JEDI Cloud contract. One of the biggest is whether Oracle will continue its legal challenge to the contract after losing its bid protest lawsuit at the Court of Federal Claims. It could take the case to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, but hasn't made a decision just yet. Joe Petrillo is a procurement attorney at the firm Petrillo and Powell. He talked with Federal Drive with Tom Temin about the likelihood of success of an appeal, based on how the case has gone so far.

In today's Federal Newscast, Virginia’s two senators want to know why Defense Secretary Mark Esper is conducting his own examination of DoD’s upcoming JEDI Cloud contract.

The Defense Department is 2-for-2 when it comes to defending its controversial JEDI Cloud solicitation from bid protests. The latest victory came on Friday after months of back-and-forth legal pleadings at the U.S. Court of Federal Claims. A federal judge ruled against Oracle's latest JEDI challenge. But there's still a lot of unknowns about the court's reasoning, and that reasoning may play a role in whether Oracle decides to appeal the ruling. Federal News Network's Jared Serbu joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to talk more about the ruling and those unanswered questions.

The Defense Department has once again delayed awarding its giant cloud computing contract. But the Pentagon is at least starting to get its ducks in a row for the actual award of the contract known as JEDI, short for Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure. Federal News Network's Scott Maucione has the latest from DoD Chief Information Officer Dana Deasy. Hear more on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

After almost a year of bid protests, the legal fight over the Defense Department's JEDI Cloud contract is finally coming to a close. The government and Amazon Web Services both filed their arguments in defense of JEDI this week, saying a federal court should toss out a challenge filed by Oracle. If the court agrees, it would pave the way for DoD to make a final award upwards of $10 billion about a month from now. Federal News Network's Jason Miller and Jared Serbu have been following the JEDI saga from the beginning, and they joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to bring listeners up to speed on the latest legal arguments.

The Defense Department's massive and controversial cloud program known as JEDI is taking a big step forward. DoD has concluded its initial investigation about whether the development of the solicitation was prejudiced by a potential conflict of interest. Federal News Network Executive Editor Jason Miller joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to catch us up on some of the latest cloud activity across DoD.

The CIA created quite a stir in the federal IT community as word spread over the last week that it's ready to upgrade its commercial cloud offering called C2S. As the industry day documents circulated across contractors and the media, the question we have to ask is whether the CIA is trying to give the Defense Department some top cover for its controversial and protest entangled Joint Enterprise Defense Initiative (JEDI) cloud procurement? In his weekly feature, the Reporter's Notebook, Federal News Network Executive Editor Jason Miller explored the message the CIA may be sending to DoD. He joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin for more.

The Defense Department has survived the first protest of its JEDI Cloud contract. But there’s at least one more – and mostly likely several more – still to come. Lauren Brier, an associate attorney with The Federal Practice Group joins us to talk about the legal issues involved in the protest Oracle filed, and why losing bidders might have more luck challenging the procurement after an award is made. Later, Jim Langevin (D-R.I.), the presumptive incoming chairman of the House Armed Services subcommittee on emerging threats and capabilities joins us to discuss his oversight and legislative priorities for the new Congress.

On September 14, Hudson Institute's Task Force on Federal IT Procurement hosted a panel to assess the lessons learned from the JEDI acquisition process.

On September 14, Hudson Institute’s Task Force on Federal IT Procurement hosted a panel to assess the lessons learned from the JEDI acquisition process.

The Defense Department yesterday released a long-awaited request for proposals for its Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure cloud computing contract. The deal could be worth $10 billion over 10 years and against the wishes of many in government and industry. DoD is going for a single-vendor approach and Federal News Radio's Jared Serbu had the details on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

The Defense Department has missed its own deadline to release the much-anticipated final solicitation for its JEDI cloud project. What the Pentagon did release was new draft pricing scenarios for what it wants to use JEDI for over the next few years. In his weekly feature, the Reporter's Notebook, executive editor Jason Miller writes about how these scenarios are examples of how DoD struggles to talk consistently about what JEDI is or isn't and why concerns about the acquisition approach continue to rise. Jason joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss.

The Pentagon's upcoming contract for its Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure – or JEDI – is getting a lot of attention. It could be the biggest IT procurement in DoD's history. But the Pentagon says JEDI won't be the only game in town when it comes to cloud. In a new memo, DoD ordered Defense agencies to start moving their applications out of more than 100 legacy data centers, and into the Defense Information Systems Agency's new milCloud 2.0. Caroline Bean, DISA's program manager for milCloud, tells Federal News Radio's Jared Serbu on Federal Drive with Tom Temin about where the program stands.
