A. Mission Description and Budget Item Justification
The Contracting Information Technology (CON-IT) system replaces aging legacy contract writing and management systems with a single contract management system
to support the global Air Force mission. CON-IT will consolidate all contract writing, management, and reporting capabilities, as well as provide interoperability across
all contracting communities (base operations, logistics, contingency, research and development, and weapons systems). As of FY19, CON-IT has replaced Standard
Procurement System, and will replace O'Contrax, ConWrite, and Automated Contract Preparation System, as well as six supporting systems.
CON-IT allows for a standardized and integrated method of anticipating and responding to the changing pace and dynamic nature of processes, regulations, and
technologies across the contracting domain. CON-IT also empowers the contracting community to fully support compliance with financial auditability and Financial
Improvement Audit Readiness goals that depend on the integrity of the data flow through the Procure to Pay process.
CON-IT capabilities are developed, deployed, and enhanced under an agile software development method, enabling strategic sourcing and other acquisition efficiencies
by standardizing data, business rules, and milestone tracking. The CON-IT Integrated Program Office's (IPO) agile framework allows for gap requirements to be
addressed through an iterative process of sprint development cycles, after which usable capability is produced and deployed to operational users. The IPO construct,
along with application of an agile framework, allows the program to properly plan system requirements, deliver early capability to the end users, achieve early return on
investment of taxpayer dollars, mitigate risk, reduce waste, effectively respond to change, and continuously improve processes.
CON-IT's configuration baseline is built upon the Defense Information Systems Agency's Integrated Defense Enterprise Acquisition System contract writing system, a
Government-off-the-Shelf product running on a Commercial Off-the-Shelf platform, Appian Business Process Management. Through an interagency agreement, the
CON-IT IPO partnered with the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Enterprise Application Services (EAS) team to develop, test, validate, deploy, and
maintain CON-IT. Data Center Hosting Services, managed and operated by the Digital Infrastructure Services Center, provides and maintains the development and
production environments in the USDA Enterprise Data Centers.
This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver contract management system capabilities. The use of
such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F.
As directed in the FY 2019 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Section 825, amendment to Public Law 114-92 FY 2016 NDAA, Section 828 Penalty for Cost
Overruns, the FY 2020 AF penalty total is $50.0M The calculated percentage reduction to each research, development, test and evaluation and procurement account
will be allocated proportionally from all programs, projects, or activities under such account.

Funds will be used to perform studies and innovative integration efforts for common technology capabilities such as cloud migration, technology development and mobile
application.
This effort is in Budget Activity 4, Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P), because efforts are necessary to evaluate integrated technologies,
representative modes or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.

Title: CON-IT System Development
Description: Initiated in FY 2017, CON-IT is delivering contracting capability to the operational contracting community at the
speed of relevance through the Integrated Program Office's agile development execution. The CON-IT IPO established early
user engagement through a series of subject matter expert familiarization events, in which system capabilities produced from
each sprint cycle are tested by operational contracting officers (COs) and valuable user feedback is collected and incorporated
into the program's requirements backlog. In FY 2018, the CON-IT IPO achieved Early Operational Capability (EOC) with initial
deployment of CON-IT capabilities to 12th AF and subsequent EOC deployment to eight additional operational locations across
the AF in every Major Command, except United States Air Forces in Europe. In FY 2019, CON-IT was deployed AF-wide across
96 sites globally, and supported more than 3,500 contracting specialists and contracting officers (COs), resulting in more than
44,000 contract actions awarded. CON-IT successfully subsumed Standard Procurement System (SPS), resulting in sun setting
SPS 26 months ahead of schedule, and delivered a Business Intelligence Pilot for contracting data analytics. CON-IT successfully
supported two Air Force (AF) Pitch Days, resulting in more than 610 contracts and ~$200M. Thus far in FY 2020, CON-IT is
supporting more than 5,300 contracting specialists and COs, and has awarded more than 55,000 contracting actions. CON-IT
successfully supported two AF Pitch Days, resulting in more than 350 contracts and ~$28M.

E. Acquisition Strategy
The interagency agreement between the CON-IT IPO and the United States Department of Agriculture is utilized to develop and deliver functional capability associated
with the approved product backlog contained within the program's roadmap. This agreement is renewed each year and contains a high-level outline of the highest
priority requirements and epics to be addressed during the timeframe of the agreement.
The CON-IT roadmap includes five major capabilities. Capability 1 modernizes contract writing for base-level and operational users, allowing the Air Force's Standard
Procurement System and AFCENTs' O'Contrax to sunset as sites transition to CON-IT. Capability 2 deploys the same capability to meet the unique needs of the
Weapon Systems, Research & Development, and Logistics communities, which will result in sunsetting ConWrite and Automated Contract Preparation System.
Capability 3 and Capability 4 automate pre/post award activities for the unclassified user base from Capability 1 and Capability 2. Capability 5 implements Capability 1,
Capability 2, Capability 3, and Capability 4 for classified users.
CON-IT is aligned to Office of the Secretary of Defense's (OSD's) Defense Procurement Acquisition Policy strategy for procurement systems. The program is re-
engineering and automating the entire business process, implementing data standards set by OSD across the community, consolidating 10 legacy systems into one,
reusing Government-off-the-Shelf solutions versus creating a new solution, and employing agile software development methods (a best practice from industry).
