KEY MESSAGES

Our Branch

  • Synthesising ideas and evidence to

support force design.

What our organisation needs to think about

  • Conceptual innovation, as well as

technological innovation.

New Methods

  • For industry, academia and

FAB to work better together.

CONCEPTS

Our joint concept section produces concepts in the 2035 timeframe, as well as the AJOC to guide current force development We are working towards building a community of experts and discussion groups

  • n key topics across Defence – and eventually

whole-of-government and other trusted partners We need to fjnd better ways to disseminate our core products across Defence and a wider audience

EXPERIMENTATION

Joint Experimentation Directorate delivers experimentation support in 4 main study lines.

  • DCAP – HEADLIGHT
  • Futures – HEADSTART
  • Future Objective Force – Force Options and

Integration Testing

  • Stream and Capability Manager - specifjc issues of a

program, project, more tactical nature We need to maximise opportunities and leverage expertise for mutual benefjt We need to use better modelling, methods and tools (MMT) for Experimentation

DEFENCE LESSONS

Must derive and apply lessons to (wicked and poorly defjned) problems that lie in the future Must look forward and outward Use the large quantities of information within Defence and industry which are yet to be analysed for a force design context

DOCTRINE

Our challenge is to move earlier into the Capability Life Cycle Find new ways to deliver doctrine Find ways to test our doctrine
