HSIFIP is managed by the Directorate of Strategic Planning and Capability Development.
HSI Literature Review. It was recognised early in the project that an additional product in the form of a literature review of contemporary national and international HSI and human factors material was required. The review significantly assists the establishment of a HSI capability within Defence and informs the scope and nature of further work envisaged by Defence in the HSI area and on building sustainable future capability.
