UK Ministry of Defence
UK MoD ASSC Management ā Exploiting Best Practice
and Information across UK Defence
Overview of the workshop:
This workshop will look to explore the approach
taken by the UK MOD in support of what the UK
call a āTeam Defenceā approach to resolving the
issues, understanding and shared working practices
required to enable effective and efficient Export
Control Compliance from the different views across
a complex stakeholder environment. The first part
of the workshop will look at the strategy used,
processes followed and practices employed to get
āTeam Defenceā to work together to jointly qualify
and quantify what our mutual export control issues
were? To develop a common language, common
definitions and understand what information is
important and how this can be captured and
shared across. From the very beginning, our
approach has been recognised as the only way
to remove organisational stove pipes, focus pan
āTeam defenceā expertise to achieve a common
goal, ultimately receiving recognition as āOverall
Winner of the Defence Information Best Practice
Awardā.
The second element to this workshop is to
explore the methodology that the UK MOD
have employed in order to identify controlled
technology, the export control regimes associated
to it and its impact throughout complex Military
systems, platforms and capabilities. Identifying our
methodology and understanding the limitations of
the source information and the working with legacy
Information services to answer key āEnd-Useā and
āTransaction Authorisationā pro-active and audit
review information requirements across the āTeam
Defenceā Supply / Support chain.
Why you should attend?
ā¢ Learn from a recognised āBest Practiceā
approach to collaborative working across a
Government ā Industry partnership;
ā¢ Learn from the issues found, mistakes made and
solutions employed to fulfil the requirements of a
very complex stakeholder group;
ā¢ Identify a strategy and method to truly understand
what is really the controlled technology within a
complex system, Platform or Capability;

controlled or has been released from control.

DELEGATE DETAILS
Payment: If payment is not made at the time of booking, then an invoice will be issued and must
be paid immediately and prior to the start of the event. If payment has not been received then
credit card details will be requested and payment taken before entry to the event. Bookings within
7 days of event require payment on booking. Access to the Document Portal will not be given
until payment has been received.
Substitutions/Name Changes: If you are unable to attend you may nominate, in writing, another
delegate to take your place at any time prior to the start of the event. Two or more delegates may
not āshareā a place at an event. Please make separate bookings for each delegate.
Cancellation: If you wish to cancel your attendance at an event and you are unable to send
a substitute, then we will refund/credit 50% of the due fee less a Ā£50 administration charge,
providing that cancellation is made in writing and received at least 28 days prior to the start of
the event. Regretfully cancellation after this time cannot be accepted. We will however provide
the conferences documentation via the Document Portal to any delegate who has paid but is
unable to attend for any reason. Due to the interactive nature of the Briefings we are not normally
able to provide documentation in these circumstances. We cannot accept cancellations of
orders placed for Documentation or the Document Portal as these are reproduced specifically to
order. If we have to cancel the event for any reason, then we will make a full refund immediately,
but disclaim any further liability.
Alterations: It may become necessary for us to make alterations to the content, speakers, timing,
venue or date of the event compared to the advertised programme.
