Abstract

The acquisition of artificial intelligence (AI) systems is a relatively new challenge for the international community, but one organization that has placed a major interest in acquiring AI is the United States Department (U.S.) of Defense (DoD). This book chapter will focus on the DoD and its challenges in the development and fielding of major AI systems to glean lessons from addressing these challenges that might benefit the international community of project managers who must manage AI acquisition programs. The chapter will focus on the standard DoD acquisition program management methodology, i.e., Earned Value Management (EVM), and how it might be improved through incorporation of two methodologies, i.e., Integrated Risk Management (IRM) and Knowledge Value Added (KVA), in the managing of complex DoD information technology (i.e., AI) programs. This research compared and contrasted these three methodologies with the goal of demonstrating when and how each method can be applied to improve the acquisitions lifecycle for AI systems. Finally, the results of this study can also be applied to for-profit and other non-profit organizations throughout the international community.
