FBI’s New Sentinel (Case Management) System-Almost ready for deployment

Due to cost over-runs and frequent project delays, FBI CIO Chad Fulgham decided to transfer the remaining development of the project “in-house” using the Agile software development process.

Apparently, Sentinel’s user interface, influenced by consumer apps, is intuitive enough that PC-savvy users would have no problem adapting to it.
