Analyst (NV1 or better) - Canberra, Australia - Arcps

Description

The Commonwealth seeks Industry participation to provide capability management services to the Land Command, Control, Communications, and Computing (LC4) Program. The services will be provided as part of an integrated team within Army Headquarters to exercise Chief of Army's Capability Management accountabilities for the LC4 Program.

The LC4 Program is managed by the LC4 Directorate within the Systems and Integration Branch of Army Headquarters. The LC4 Directorate is transitioning to a programmatic multi-tranche approach. This will achieve continuous and iterative delivery of capability, rather than traditional project structures and 'big bang' acquisition typically characterised by high complexity, long schedules and large budgets. This approach will provide the flexibility to address capability needs, maintain pace with technology and allies, and respond to emerging threats/opportunities

The Analyst positions will support the LC4 Program through the identification and facilitation of the appropriate, relevant and required Fundamental Inputs to Capability (FIC) elements in order to support the delivery, sustainment and operation of future iterative LC4 capabilities. All positions will therefore work across all of the necessary FIC elements (Personnel, Organisation, Systems, Training, Facilities, Operations and Introduction into Service. Supply/Support-ILS). The FIC Analysts will represent LC4 FIC interests within relevant/related Integrated Product Teams including but not limited to: FIB, eFIB, L4140 and L200-3. The FIC Analysts will assess needs and priorities and ensure this is aligned and appropriately considered within Tranche plans.

1. Maintain the Land C4 FIC baseline including the strategies to remediate and conduct uplift.
2. Develop and maintain the Land C4 FIC management plan, integrated with the Land C4 Program facilities investment.

6. Synchronise Land C4 project and FIC uplift activities with Army initiatives and activities within the Defence Synchronisation Tool.
7. Collaborate with Army functional commands and develop TASKORDs, introduction into service directives, and other formal correspondence to enable Army to manage realisation of all FIC.
8. Support the development of project Business Cases and other written documentation. Provide the analysis and briefings as needed to support work take-on assessment.
9. Conduct end-user engagement on current gaps and needs and develop options on how to progress these.
10. Provide subject matter expertise into project Tranches, regarding the assessment and management of FIC.
11. Contribute to the development of the Benefits Management plan and provide reporting into governance forums on the progress and risks to achieving FIC and benefits.
