DMO humour

Quote by Warren King. APDR November 2012.

We have had some failures as an organisation, but I want to put that into context. DMO has many projects that run for 10 years or more – they are big and complex. I have had some work done – that I can't detailed just yet – benchmarking ourselves against the private sector. The preliminary results are very positive.

Typically, we do not have problems remaining within our budgets this seems to be an ongoing method defence projects experience regular budget blowouts. They do not. Around 98% of our work is on or under budget – and that is a better result than industry itself is able to achieve.

How many years did that M-113 upgrade take?
