168 CHAPTER SEVEN: REFORM OF DEFENCE 7.14 A new and simplified business model for Defence will be introduced which focuses on its core business. It has three key features: `` `` `` A stronger strategic centre able to provide clear direction, contestability of decision-making as well as enhanced control of resources and monitoring of organisational performance. An end-to-end approach for capability development. Capability Managers will be assigned clear authority and accountability for the delivery of capability outcomes to schedule and budget, supported by an integrated capability delivery function and subject to stronger direction setting and contestability from the centre. Enablers that are integrated and customer-centric with greater use of cross-functional processes, particularly in regional locations.

The strategic centre is the senior management structure in Defence that sets
The First Principles Review – The Government’s reform program 169 priorities, manages resources and is responsible for steering the whole organisation to implement the Government’s defence policies. The strategic centre includes the Secretary of the Department of Defence, the Chief of the Defence Force and the Vice Chief of the Defence Force, the Associate Secretary, the Deputy Secretary Strategic Policy and Intelligence and the Chief Finance Officer. This group forms the Defence Committee which is the primary decision-making committee in Defence. 7.16 The stronger strategic centre will have more power and authority to set direction for all of Defence’s activities and will maintain close oversight of the delivery of the strategy, capability, and resources set out in this Defence White Paper. 7.17 Defence will reduce top-level management and the number of committees, while strengthening its planning and performance monitoring to improve accountability. These reforms will fundamentally change the way Defence makes decisions and implements them, positioning Defence to better manage the threats and challenges for Australia to 2035. 7.18 The Government has made legislative changes to recognise the command authority of the Chief of the Defence Force over the ADF and its three Service Chiefs and the command and administrative authority of the Vice Chief of the Defence Force. 7.19 The Government will ensure the accountabilities of the Secretary of the Department of Defence reflect the Secretary’s responsibility for managing the Defence budget and overall investment management. The Secretary will have primary accountability for coordinating the provision of timely advice to Government, including on policy aspects of operational deployments. 7.20 Defence will establish a permanent future force design function, under the Vice Chief of the Defence Force, to strengthen Defence’s capacity to deliver the joint and integrated ADF outlined in Chapter Four.
