Since then\, the Defence Board and Ministers have expressed an interest and a task to produce a first draft by the end of July 2022 has been set with a publication date of December 2022. \nIn gathering data for the DSIS\, Team Defence-Information ran a successful workshop in Feb 20 to provide an industry perspective (unfortunately\, I cannot include the output as it has been marked as OFFICIAL-SENITIVE) and I would like to do something similar for this report as two years has elapsed\, and the analytic framework is different. In advance of the workshop\, I will have extracted the relevant information and included it against the area of the new analytic framework. \nI would like Team Defence-Information to hold a one-off\, one-day workshop at Briarlands for a qualitative look at the health of Defence’s Digital Industrial Base\, with a remote option\, where I can collect a broad range of industry’s views to inform the report. \nI will provide more detail before 30 May 22\, but the main areas are: \n\nThe Segment overview (description and characteristics)\nRisks and Issues faced by the Segment (a framework will be provided)\nDevelopments in the Segment (how the market is predicted to change\, forthcoming changes to policy or regulations\, any significant changes to MOD programmes)\nSegment outlook (growth projections\, emerging technologies\, strategies that will affect decision-making)\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nRegister here URL:https://www.teamdefence.info/event/health-check-of-defence-industrial-base/ LOCATION:TD-Info\, 6A Pinkers Court\, Briarlands Office Park\, Bristol\, BS35 3QH\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Exec Team,Members Only,Strategy Group END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20220613T130000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20220613T150000 DTSTAMP:20260407T174211 CREATED:20220530T130052Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220613T114402Z UID:240159-1655125200-1655132400@www.teamdefence.info SUMMARY:Industry Customers Engagement Forum (ICEF) DESCRIPTION:Industry Customer Engagement Forum – regular Industry Engagement meeting\, hosted by MOD\, to address issues affecting Industry-based consumers of MOD-provided services.  Use the links below to add this virtual meeting to your calendar. \nFor further information\, please contact Tony Butler \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nRegister URL:https://www.teamdefence.info/event/industry-customers-engagement-forum-icef-7/ LOCATION:MOD Corsham\, Westwells Road\, Hawthorn\, SN13 9NR CATEGORIES:ICEF,Members Only END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20220614T100000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20220614T100000 DTSTAMP:20260407T174211 CREATED:20220531T105543Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220531T105553Z UID:240723-1655200800-1655200800@www.teamdefence.info SUMMARY:Data Exploitation in Defence : Powered by Tableau DESCRIPTION:“Our ambition to ‘unleash the power of data’ is stronger than ever.

By value\, we rely on our suppliers to deliver 95% of our infrastructure services. \nThis event will help to ensure DIO is pursuing and aiming to reach as much of the market as possible\, increasing competition and achieving our corporate objective of making it easier to do business with DIO.
