Current ADBR-E edition B/3:

Kokoda verdict posits new Defence organisation as full of 'gifted amateurs'

This month's edition examines observations and recommendations made within the Kokoda Foundation's inaugural research paper on 'Preparing Australia's Defence for 2020: Transformation or Reform'. ADBR-E looks in particular at the Foundation's insights into the current state of Defence reform programs, and its assessment as ineffective many of the major Department of Defence reforms advanced by the Howard Government since 1996. The edition is complemented with an update of ADBR-E's 'Top 30 Defence Projects' review and commentary on the success or otherwise of Defence Materiel Organisation efforts to improve its record of delivery on major military acquisitions, as measured by Earned Value Management (EVM) criteria.
