Benefits<br />
31. The total cost to stage the 2007 events equates to spending $75 per head to deliver <strong>Navy</strong>’s<br />
message directly to a specially targeted audience. Additional benefits include broadcasting the<br />
event direct to our deployed forces using INMARSAT, developing future promotional material from<br />
images captured from the first events, and developing a wider reach through commercial radio and<br />
television. Also, audiences will be invited to make a donation to a major charity; similar to the inflight<br />
program conducted by Qantas, and this will reflect well upon <strong>Navy</strong> as a responsible corporate<br />
entity.<br />
32. The first performances in 2007 and 2008 will present valuable learning opportunities should<br />
<strong>Navy</strong> wish to proceed with the third and fourth international events in 2011 and 2013. Moreover, the<br />
first performances will allow <strong>Navy</strong> to gauge the level of interest in attracting wider corporate<br />
sponsorship to assist in reducing costs for the proposed much larger events. Importantly though, the<br />
potential value to <strong>Navy</strong>’s image as an ‘organisation with a worldwide reputation for excellence’<br />
through hosting international events in 2011 and 2013, is significant.<br />
CONCLUSION<br />
33. This series of <strong>Navy</strong> Tattoo and Tattoo-Styled Concerts will give a platform in which to<br />
deliver <strong>Navy</strong>’s message to its key audience group and help to tell <strong>Navy</strong>’s story with additional<br />
benefits realised through using a mix of television and radio broadcast opportunities to reach a<br />
National audience.<br />
34. This proposal will:<br />
a. enhance recruiting through communicating goals and achievements to a specially<br />
targeted external audience;<br />
b. improve reputation and community awareness and complement <strong>Navy</strong>’s broader<br />
community engagement strategy; and<br />
c. contribute to retention and recruiting by giving <strong>Navy</strong>’s people a way in which<br />
showcase there skills and life experiences and feel good about Who We Are and<br />
What We Do.<br />
RECOMMENDATION<br />
35. Recommend you support this proposal, seek additional funds as part of <strong>Navy</strong>’s Budget<br />
Development Proposal process, and direct the formation of the Project Team.<br />
