Workshop (Air) DESCRIPTION:Team Defence Information\, working with the National Armaments Director Group\, are planning to hold three (Air\, Land & Sea) joint MOD / Defence Industry data quality workshops in September and October 2026.     \n Workshops Purpose & Aims \n\nEnsure better quality data flows from Industry to the MoD and vice versa.\nBetter understand the extent to which poor quality data supplied by the MoD impacts Industry in the delivery of their contracts.\nUnderstand how Industry currently manages poor quality data it receives (for example whether issues are resolved in‑house\, referred to delivery teams\, ignored\, or escalated in line with contractual routes).\n\n The Workshops Will Enable \n\nShared evidence and examples of data quality issues and their impacts.\nMap current behaviours\, responsibilities\, and escalation routes when poor data is encountered.\nIdentify priority issues that should be addressed at source.\nDevelop practical options for contractual\, governance and process improvements.\n\nLongterm Aims \n\nIdentify how data quality issues can best be resolved at source rather than managed downstream.\nExplore what contractual requirements could be introduced to define data quality thresholds on data supplied by both Industry and the MoD\, including potential changes to extant DEFCONs and DEFSTANs.\nUnderstand how data quality improvements can be incorporated into existing programmes to address current issues and prevent poor quality data being shared going forward.\nTo drive better quality data at the point of exchange between MoD and Industry\, so that contractual delivery\, assurance and MI reporting are based on information that is accurate\, consistent\, timely and fit for decision-making.\n\n Industry EngagementIndustry participation is key to understanding the real-world impact of poor data quality within live contracts\, including where it creates additional effort\, uncertainty\, repeated clarification\, manual checking\, reformatting or downstream rework. By grounding the workshops in practical delivery experience rather than assumptions\, Industry input will help MoD better understand how data issues arise and are managed\, and where clearer expectations\, responsibilities or more consistent ways of working could make the process easier for both sides. \nWe are therefore seeking members who would be interested in participating in the workshops. \n Workshop Attendance \nWe are planning for the attendance of up to 40 personnel which includes 15 people participating from MOD. Due to the expected demand for these workshops\, we will be applying a ‘first come first serve’ approach aiming for 1 person per company.  \n Workshop Dates\, Timing & Venue \nThe duration of each workshop would be 10.00 to 14.00\, with lunch provided. The venue will be in the Severnside Suite\, Thornbury Active Conference Centre\, BS35 3JB. \n23rd Sept (Air)  \n29th Sept (Land)  \n8th Oct(Sea) \n Key Contacts \nTim Donovan – National Armaments Director Data Quality Manager Tim.Donovan846@mod.gov.uk \nMatt James – National Armaments Logistics & Support Lead Data Steward Matthew.James156@mod.gov.uk \nAdrian Page TD-info Data Quality Community of Practice Facilitator adrian.page@teamdefence.info \nKelly Gough TD-Info event Planner kelly.gough@teamdefence.info \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nRegister here URL:https://www.teamdefence.info/event/data-quality-workshop-air/ LOCATION:Thornbury Active Leisure Centre\, Alveston Hill\, Thornbury\, BS35 3JB CATEGORIES:Members Only,Public Working Groups,Standards END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260929T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260929T140000 DTSTAMP:20260713T153942Z CREATED:20260713T153937Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260713T153942Z UID:251154-1790676000-1790690400@www.teamdefence.info SUMMARY:Data Quality Workshop (Land) DESCRIPTION:Team Defence Information\, working with the National Armaments Director Group\, are planning to hold three (Air\, Land & Sea) joint MOD / Defence Industry data quality workshops in September and October 2026.     \n Workshops Purpose & Aims \n\nEnsure better quality data flows from Industry to the MoD and vice versa.\nBetter understand the extent to which poor quality data supplied by the MoD impacts Industry in the delivery of their contracts.\nUnderstand how Industry currently manages poor quality data it receives (for example whether issues are resolved in‑house\, referred to delivery teams\, ignored\, or escalated in line with contractual routes).\n\n The Workshops Will Enable \n\nShared evidence and examples of data quality issues and their impacts.\nMap current behaviours\, responsibilities\, and escalation routes when poor data is encountered.\nIdentify priority issues that should be addressed at source.\nDevelop practical options for contractual\, governance and process improvements.\n\nLongterm Aims \n\nIdentify how data quality issues can best be resolved at source rather than managed downstream.\nExplore what contractual requirements could be introduced to define data quality thresholds on data supplied by both Industry and the MoD\, including potential changes to extant DEFCONs and DEFSTANs.\nUnderstand how data quality improvements can be incorporated into existing programmes to address current issues and prevent poor quality data being shared going forward.\nTo drive better quality data at the point of exchange between MoD and Industry\, so that contractual delivery\, assurance and MI reporting are based on information that is accurate\, consistent\, timely and fit for decision-making.\n\n Industry EngagementIndustry participation is key to understanding the real-world impact of poor data quality within live contracts\, including where it creates additional effort\, uncertainty\, repeated clarification\, manual checking\, reformatting or downstream rework.
