RAAF Plan Jericho Design-Led Innovation -

Enabling Transformation

Plan Jericho is Air Force’s plan to transform into a fully integrated force that is capable of figh:ng and winning in the informa:on age. "Air pla?orms, command and control, and informa:on management systems must be acquired in a deliberate manner, with a full regard for future opera:ng concepts. We must achieve the future Air Force by design."

Ø  Seminar intent – to explore: o  how the RAAF, in partnership with the other

Services, Groups and Industry, can create the appropriate innova:on / transforma:on environment to support the design and implementa:on of the RAAF’s Plan Jericho.

o  Will business as usual work ?
