About the Webinar

Chris Crozier will commence his presentation by giving context to the strategic environment Defence currently faces and the need for digital transformation to ensure Defence is ready to fight and win in the digital age.  Chris will also discuss the recent formation of the Defence Digital Group and the organisational changes being implemented to enable a more rapid adoption of best-in-class platforms, underpinned by best-in-class sovereign ICT capabilities, to deliver strategic decision advantage to the warfighter.

This session will highlight the strategic imperatives of adopting best-in-class capabilities including best-in-class automation where appropriate.  Chris will delve into the relationship between technology uplift and the speed of automation, underlining the importance of modernising underlying technology infrastructures and planforms, enabling maximum returns from automation initiatives.  From enhanced efficiency to heightened security, the session will navigate the advantages and challenges of aligning with best practices during digital transformations.
