Focus: informing members and decision-makers on issues that affect both industry and MoD. Engaging with Government-side stakeholders, this group offers members the ability to network and engage with other suppliers by means of workshops, papers and speakers. The briefing programme will invite key MOD decision-makers with knowledge of these areas to present on the issues they face, giving them opportunity to engage a well-informed audience. Following each meeting, the group will look at the issues raised by the speakers, offering, for example, thought leadership papers in the areas of the use of COTS, adopting open architectures, security and assurance, improving delivery approaches and approaches to MOD-Industry partnering.
