As the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) OIT transitions into Development Operations (DevOps), we would benefit from being able to quickly identify maturity levels of all product and project teams. This ability would help determine best practices for each team to move forward with their processes.

Time Box

VA anticipates a six to eight week iteration to be sufficient.

Vendors may propose alternate time frame for VA's consideration.
