Facilitated Workshops
The Center hosts a variety of facilitated workshops, including Pre-Smart Buyer Workshops.
The workshops enable efficient and rigorous definition of needs, requirements and related information for the following:
- Project-level:
- Joint Capability Needs Statements (JCNS)
- Operational and Support Intent (OSI) tailored to particular expectations
- Description of Requirement (DOR)
- Operational Concept Documents (OCD)
- Function and Performance Specifications (FPS)
- Program-level:
- Program Integrating Operational Concept (PIOC)
- Umbrella/Program Operational Concept Documents
- Program Strategies
Each workshop uses a structured methodology developed by the CSC supported by contemporary analysis, modelling and decision-making techniques.
The workshop format ensures that stakeholder consultation and engagement is collaborative and saves time and resources. The scope of each workshop, which is typically between one to three days, is tailored to the particular Program or Project.
The CSC workshop activities include preparation, facilities, use of requirements capture and decision-support tools, catering, facilitators with deep experience in Defence across different environmental domains, and output documents or analyses as required.
