The departmental lead for Information and ICT in the Ministry of Defence (MOD) is the Information Systems and Services (ISS) organisation. ISS has recently embarked on an ambitious tranformational change programme aimed at enhancing ICT capabilities across the MOD (both in the operational and corporate domains). Technology and Innovation are at the heart of ISS Transformation and our initial focus will be to deliver improvements to the MOD-wide computer network, Defence Information Infrastructure (DII). Other workstreams focus on skills and behaviours; industry engagement and improving ISS’ agility and customer focus.
