Total
Armed Forces Logistics Solution
Defence Communications
Industry and Kabed Consulting are excited to advise that a unique partnering
arrangement now provides Defence organisations with the opportunity to source
their preferred and total system solution from a single group.
The Principles have been
associated for a number of years and have a total of more than forty years of
Defence systems and communications expertise.
For the past three years DCI has forged forward with the development of
a communications solution specific to the needs of Defence clients. Most notably this has been the development of
the P3/P1 products for C4I field communications extensions. Kabed has been solely responsible for the
development and implementation of a deployable corporate logistics system. They are providing the Project Direction for
the provision, training and enhancements of the Australian Defence Forces
logistic system. The enhancements
include an improved maintenance system and a solution to support deployable
logistics operations.
This unique
partnering arrangement means that a client is able to explain its concept of
operations to us knowing that a thorough planning, development and
implementation process will realise the concepts with a fully developed,
documented and supported solution. These
compatible knowledge groups provide assurance that the system requirements are
developed in concert with the communications infrastructure needs of the
client. Ordinarily separate suppliers
result in clients facing ill-conceived and ad-hoc implementation.
The specific skill modules
available to our clients are listed below.
It should be noted that we are able to perform each of the following
steps as independent actions or together as part of a total solution.
Modules:
·

Detailed exploration of a clients business requirements are undertaken by
experienced Strategic Planners. This
stage produces the Requirements Document following a discovery process, and
sets the benchmark for measuring future success and implementation milestones.

Program Management Planning.
Careful
and thorough planning is required to ensure success and acceptance by your user
community. Our staff have many years of
qualified experience in this area and are currently performing this task for

Procedure
Development.
Our
Business Analysts will work with your key stakeholders to develop concise and

logistic system.
·
Training.
Our staff are experienced in the development of complete training programs
based upon the Procedures defined in the previous module. It is most important that all levels of
training are met so that the total system is understood at all users. We are currently involved in the development
and delivery of training packages for users of the logistic system being rolled
out to the ADF.
