Deliver better data driven decision making by introducing and fully exploiting the latest Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (EPM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Human Capital Management (HCM) technology; improving visibility, accuracy and accessibility of management information across defence; and, using integrated data analytics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to inform decision making.
Improve Productivity and Efficiency by automating transactional processes ; expanding and improving MOD’s shared service centre operations; and, reducing MOD’s overall corporate services spend to maximise our reinvestment into the front-line.
