Defence policy and analysis
Evidence-based analysis and advice
Our advice is based on an in-depth knowledge of the defence sector – from shipbuilding to supporting innovation in the sector – and a comprehensive understanding of the nation’s dynamic policy and regulatory environment.
Our services
Defence is currently implementing the recommendations from the First Principles Review (FPR). Outcomes from FPR found concerns with the quality of advice provided to decision makers, identifying a lack of enterprise level consideration of spending priorities across the whole of Defence. The result was an inconsistent process for assessing investment proposals.
Our strength is in delivering evidence-based analysis and advice that resonates with audiences and shapes decision-making. Our advice is based on an in-depth knowledge of the defence sector – from shipbuilding to supporting innovation – and a comprehensive understanding of the nation’s dynamic policy and regulatory environment.
