`DISALLOW_FILE_MODS` is set to `true` in staging and production environments by default. See here: [https://github.com/roots/bedrock/blob/master/config/environments/production.php#L7](https://github.com/roots/bedrock/blob/master/config/environments/production.php#L7)

Changing it to `false` will allow you to install/update plugins via the WP admin dashboard.
