D Group Insights for the NAD Group

Written by Evie Ramsay, Content Manager

With the ongoing development of the NAD Group and just in advance of the appointment of Rupert Pearce as National Armaments Director, the D Group hosted a roundtable discussion with a cross-section of its members. The discussion aimed to provide a ‘voice of industry’ perspective on the NAD’s most important immediate priorities, while also focusing on longer-term strategic imperatives.

The insights drawn from our discussion highlight both the immediate actions needed to build momentum and the longer-term shifts required to embed sustainable transformation across the defence enterprise.
