The Defence Authority for C4ISR (DAfC4ISR) is: Single “Chief Executive” of the C4ISR Business One place – strategy, money, capability, coherence, operate, joint user Single C4ISR architect also the CTO Simplified and connected governance Improved interfaces and ownership with FLCs, TLBs, DE&S, S&T and Industry

Benefits being realised Singular, top down MOD Board level information governance in place
C4ISR Strategy has been developed (with Intellect input – fix contingency now etc)
All C4ISR and cyber S&T has been reviewed and aligned with the Strategy.
Internationally: our C4ISR and cyber engagement with the US IC, 5 Eyes, NATO and France (through CJEF) is becoming more coherent and makes better use of embedded LNOs
Nationally: cross Government and inter-agency working has improved
Internal to MOD, we are seeing more consistent prioritisation of limited resource across the FLCs onto C4ISR and cyber outcomes inputting to ABC 13 and 14 DPs. Internal to JFC we see closer work with DJW on JEF.
Internal to DCI3 and Joint User, we see improved coherence around C2I2, better aligning ‘2’ and ‘6’ requirements and broader understanding of SIE (all the Ints). Additionally, recent work on ECIP has realised benefits for Op users and Cyber work across Govt is maturing well.
Collocation of C4ISR Cap and JU staffs in Building 410 at Northwood is yielding tangible people benefits, as is the establishment of the Joint Force Intelligence Group in new 5 Eyes intelligence fusion facilities at Wyton.

Opportunities
Now senior information Governance is complete, there is more opportunity for Defence Authority Holding to Account (H2A) to drive coherence into the portfolio; there is the opportunity (need) to further rationalise all the lower level programme management meetings.
Now the heavy lifting of constructing the JFC portfolio is almost done, there is more opportunity to concentrate on project outputs and programme outcomes – essentially work on the detail of delivery to develop better and more coherent C4ISR solutions.
A wholesale chop of ISS into JFC in Apr 14 under the new 3 Star CIO will allow better control of delivery levers, in year spend and closer working between Programme SROs and ISS Delivery Teams. The addition of PDG 1 in Apr 15 (subject to studies in hand) provides a further opportunity to tie in the ISR DPD deliverables.
With CTO, to use our re-focussed S&T to shape a better pathway for innovation covering OEMs, SMEs and tech start-ups.
Also with CIO as SIRO and CTO, to improve cyber security and exploit the Govt Classification Scheme (Official, Secret and TS).

Challenges
Capacity
Span and complexity – Our desk officer leads have to be very able indeed; they have to be both professionally and technically able. So our related challenge is simplification.
Location, location, location – Most teams at Northwood, work still occurs in MOD London and requires interfaces with all FLCs (inc JFC Wyton, CJO and DSF) and in with all other TLBs.
Centralisation v agility - the balance of centralisation into one large financial portfolio versus disaggregated decision making to retain agility to meet changing customer requirements across Defence.
Establishing a timely and useful dialogue with Industry across the breadth of C4ISR and cyber suppliers.
Defence Authority for C4ISR 11
We have implemented our design: it is starting to work - there remains much Continuous Improvement activity to
address.
