The Australian National Audit Office has uncovered more of what we already know; our Defence procurement situation is a shambles. The report looks at the Navy issues, but of course this points at the failed experiment known as the Defence Material Organisation (DMO).
The report calls for better liason between the key players. Yes, some of us knew that already.
Where are the real project managers? Where is the real responsibility? I say it is time to save some money and break up the DMO and let uniformed service chiefs own the responsibility for procurement and sustainment. Supposedly our top flag ranks are not children that need failed bureaucrats to hold their hand (and purse).
The under-performing rent-seekers may have some fear.
