Overview
The Defence Enterprise Information System
Management (DEISM) Division is responsible for
the DOD’s strategic governance of the resource
information and its enablers, Information and
Communications System (ICS) and IT. This
Division supports the Sec Def in his duties as
the Information Ofcer of the DOD, giving
strategic direction to the DOD and accounting for
departmental resources. The Defence Enterprise
Information System supports the DOD business
through the ability to effectively support command
control and defence administration. In the year
under review, the Division made further strides in
overseeing the integration of defence IT systems, in
line with the provisions of the Defence Enterprise
Information Systems (DEIS) Master Plan. In terms
of the strategic direction, the DEISM Division in
collaboration with the CMIS Division, completed
the ICS environmental analysis. Governance rules
applicable to the DOD have been analysed and the
relevant portions worked into the introduction of
the DOD IT strategy. In consolidating its work, the
DEISM Division will continue to align its strategies
and plans with those of the CMIS Division and
other Divisions.
