DASA developing Data Integration in Defence Logistics competition

The Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) is intending to run a competition on Data Integration in the Defence Logistics environment.

The Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) is interested in finding innovative solutions to how the Ministry of Defence (MoD) accesses, integrates, exploits and utilises its data in an easier, more cost effective and flexible way.

To aid competition development, DASA is holding a workshop on 28 November 2018 where stakeholders/suppliers can learn more about the problem space and help shape the scope of the competition.
