Navy cuts new keys

Navy has raised a Project Team to address PMKeyS issues affecting personnel and management. The project is expected to run for 15 months.

A staff of approximately 20 people has been established at Northbourne House in Canberra, 14 are Defence personnel and the remainder contractors. The two groups will work closely together. Information regarding the project’s activities and outcomes affecting PMKeyS users will be promulgated on a regular basis.

To avoid confusion the Project and PDT-N are collocated and share common phone and e-mail facilities.
A Liaison Team, WOWTR Gerry Anesbury and PONPC Stan Waye, will visit ships and establishment to provide instruction in aspects of PMKeyS and listen to the concerns of people in the workplace.

The team has visited Defence Plaza Sydney, Maritime Headquarters, HMA Ships Kanimbla, Newcastle, Watson, Waterhen, Penguin, and Harman. In January this year, the team completed a successful visit to the Darwin area. Feedback from the visits has been very positive. On every visit the Liaison Team leave with issues that need to be reported to the Navy PMKeyS Remediation Project for follow-up action.

The team’s next visits are to Cairns and Stirling with visits to other ships and establishments still to be arranged, so you may see Gerry and Stan in your part of the world in the near future. Contact details are as follows:
