How Do Leaders In Government Decide Whether To Buy Or Build? Do They pick GOTS or COTS?

For decades government leaders have had to wrestle with questions of building solutions vs buying existing solutions. The needs of government enterprises have shifted over the decades, but so have the capabilities of commercially available products. It is critically important that executives in government frame their build vs buy/COTS vs GOTS questions correctly so they make optimal decisions. To help in this framing we are launching a new study designed to capture lessons learned and best practices in federal IT build vs buy decisions.

We would love your inputs on this study!
