MITRE Roundtable
Is a COTS Solution Right for Me?

A group of MITRE staff, with a vast amount of experience in COTS acquisition and use, recently met to discuss the myriad of issues surrounding the use of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software and hardware. Their experiences with COTS products and services illustrate that the answer to the question, “Is a COTS solution right for me?” often results in the answer “It depends.” The dialog was moderated by the Information Technology Division’s Executive Director Mark Maybury.
