Technology transformation to support the Integrated Force of the future

Supporting the government’s vision for Defence in a competitive age is a vast undertaking. Technology leaders must prepare the ground today to defend against constantly changing threats, while safeguarding all in-flight operations.

No other sector deals with digital transformation across such a volatile network of geophysical, socio-political, professional and supply chain variables. IT change and solutions architecture must be cost-effective, robust, agile, accessible, and fully compatible across Single Services and global NATO partners.

IT legacies, budgetary constraints, fast-moving personnel, and evolving cyber threats all make the environment especially challenging. But success is imperative to safeguard the future of our nation.
