Projects and Products of Interest
The DMO's performance in 2005–06 has shown continuing improvement over that recorded in 2004–05. A comparison of the top 20 acquisition projects shows that Approved Major Capital Investment Program in-year slippage reduced from 20 per cent in 2003, to 12 per cent in 2004–05, increasing slightly to 14 per cent in 2005–06. This already compares favourably with performance by allied defence organisations, but we are determined to move closer to an industry benchmark of ten per cent.
During 2005–06, the DMO delivered and sustained materiel for the ADF. Projects and products of emerging interest during 2005–06 are detailed in Table 2.5.
