Natural Capital & Infrastructure Community of Practice
2025-06-12 14:00 - 17:00 | TD-Info, 6A Pinkers Court, Briarlands Office Park, Bristol, BS35 3QH, United Kingdom
The Natural Capital & Infrastructure (NC&I) Community of Practice
The topic
Team Defence has defined this in a Defence enterprise perspective as looking and focusing on Natural capital, which is the world’s stock of natural resources, which includes geology, soils, air, water, and all living organisms. Some natural capital assets provide people with free goods and services, often called ecosystem services and Infrastructure – the basic physical and organisational structures and facilities (e.g. buildings, roads, power supplies) needed for the operation of a society or enterprise.
How we operate

Our community of practice (CoP) is a group of people who share a common concern, a set of problems, or an interest in a topic and who come together to fulfil both individual and group goals.
Communities of practice often focus on sharing best practices and creating new knowledge to advance a domain of professional practice. Interaction on an ongoing basis is an important part of this.
Our community of practice relies on face-to-face meetings as well as web-based collaborative environments to communicate, connect and conduct community activities.

Why get involved?
Your contribution will enable you to understand the direction of travel from within Defence, shape, influence and assist MOD in its future direction for Natural Capital & Infrastructure. There is also a connection to work as part of a team with equally capable and knowledgeable organisations within Defence and the wider digital community. This is an opportunity for wider industry experience and best practice to be showcased within the Defence environment.
This will enable:

Understanding of how focus areas will interact to realise a future end state.
Articulation of requirements for capability across the enterprise
Development of capability roadmaps
Alignment, pull through and learning from representative capabilities.

Assessment of potential solutions and recommendations for future development
The next meeting for the NC&I Cop will be taking place on 30th April 2024. This will be a hybrid meeting taking place In-person at TD-Info Office, Rudgeway and Virtually via MS Teams (Teams link received upon registration)
Eion Bailey is the TD-Info lead for this CoP

Not SDR – the Industry view of capability planning to meet 2025’s challenges
2025-05-01 10:00 - 15:00
This July’s annual Defence Information workshop – “A new era for Defence: what MOD wants from Industry; what Industry needs from MOD” – is an early opportunity to help shape the post-SDR relationship between front-line users of military capability and its industrial suppliers. With the actual SDR not now expected to report before June, we are planning a couple of, intentionally one-sided, seminar/webinars to collate an Industry view of what the capability element of SDR might contain if Industry were writing it.
Two sessions are planned for 1 May – 0900-1000 and 1300-1400 – each with the following outline agenda:

Introduction – to include the environmental changes driving the need for a new approach
Accelerated acquisition/procurement: responding to environmental changes and increased threat levels
Best-practice from non-Defence industries: eg health, oil & gas etc
Measuring agility as a KPI: agility more complex than company size
Implications for managing delivery risk: consequences of failure – benefits of success

(Note that the pm webinar will start with a synopsis of key points from the am session)
A lot to get through in an hour so meetings may run on longer if members wish; however, the agenda topics will each be covered within the first hour. Please register at the links to the side of this page.
C. 12 places will be available for members wishing to join the discussions in-person at the TD-Info Office in Briarlands Office Park, BS35 3QH.

2025-03-28 09:00 - 17:00 | MOD Abbey Wood, Stoke Gifford, Bristol, BS34 8JH, United Kingdom
A new Team Defence-info supported MOD DUxDA face-to-face industry early engagement event has now been announced.
Please note: Expressions of interest must be submitted by close of play 11th March
Background – The UK Defence Drone Strategy 2024
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/defence-drone-strategy-the-uks-approach-to-defence-uncrewed-systems set the vision for the UK to be world – leading in uncrewed Defence systems. The approach to achieving this is through unparalleled collaboration and bold innovation built around four key objectives:

Expedite acquisition reform
Build a resilient industrial base
Define digital architectures for seamless integration
Foster a new culture of innovation

This strategy identified the need for a Defence-level governance mechanism to support pan-domain delivery plans of the Royal Navy, Army and Royal Airforce (incl Space). To support the strategy in the delivery of its vision the Defence UxS Design Authority (DUxDA) was established in Apr 24.
Who are DUxDA and what do they do? – They sit within Strategic Command with pan-Defence responsibility, core within these responsibilities is to…

Cohere
Collaborate
Co-ordination

DUxDA provides improved co-ordination and coherence of MOD Uncrewed Systems activity to promote both value for money and improved Uncrewed capability across the entire Defence Enterprise (Air, Ground, On Water, Under Water, Space).
As a Design Authority it is a standalone, integrated highly experienced team responsible for maintaining the integrity of programme objectives and alignment of solutions (designs) to programme level requirements through the effective implementation of collaborative assurance and guidance. The agile services structure can be adapted and tailored for any programme design and delivers the following within the Uncrewed area.

Standalone Design Authority service or integrated within existing Teams
Flexibility to advise at all levels architectural and design areas
Full cross-function, collaborative, embedded transformation lifecycle design assurance
Operates as a trusted advisor for and appropriate MOD programme
Has ownership of Programme architecture (business, processes, applications, technology, data)
Transformation and transition roadmap definition, creation and delivery
Deliver support across large-scale dynamic systems integration programmes
Drive multiple improvement initiatives to de-risk the programme
Ability to provide architecture and programme leadership and direction.

The DUxDA industry engagement event activity asks? – The DUxDA will present the progress made and outputs delivered since forming Apr 24 and detail the strategy and key delivery milestones for the Defence UxS portfolio for the next 12 months. Industry engagement, feedback and support is critical to the successful delivery of the DUxDA strategy and key delivery milestones, and this face-to-face event will be the first of a series of events being planned through FY25/26 ultimately aimed at creating a one team structure between Defence and Industry to deliver the future capability road maps across Defence.
Should you get involved? – If your organisation is involved in the development and delivery of Uncrewed Systems to Defence you are encouraged to attend.
Why get involved? – Your contribution will enable you to understand the direction of travel from within Defence, shape, influence and assist MOD in its future direction for Uncrewed Systems.
There is also the opportunity to work as part of a team with equally capable and knowledgeable organisations within Defence and the wider Uncrewed Systems community.
This is an opening for wider industry experience and best practice to be showcased within the Defence environment.
This will enable:

Understanding of how focus areas will interact to realise a future end state.
Articulation of requirements for Uncrewed Systems capability across the enterprise.
Development of capability roadmaps
Alignment, pull through and learning from representative Uncrewed Systems capabilities.
Assessment of potential system solutions and recommendations for future development.

If you would like to attend please complete the expression of interest form, this will close on 11th March.
