  • Leading Defence Companies Partner for FRES Programme
    Fusion Third Floor 25 Templar Avenue Farnborough, GU14 6FE United Kingdom A Finmeccanica Company Farnborough, 4-09-2007 Leading defence companies partner for FRES programme A group of major defence companies has today announced their teaming arrangement to compete for the System of Systems Integrator (SOSI) role on the UK Ministry of Defence’s Future Rapid Effect System (FRES) vehicle programme. Their combined commitment is reflected in their joint response to the MoD’s recently issued Pre-Qualification Questionnaire for the FRES SOSI Operating through Fusion and led by Finmeccanica, the team – Finmeccanica, MBDA, General Dynamics UK and BAE Systems - will seek to be awarded the FRES SOSI role. If selected, it will provide its wealth of FRES SOSI-related expertise to work in partnership with the UK MoD to ensure effective delivery of the FRES capability. In this role, Fusion would reinforce the MoD in achieving operational coherence with both the British Army’s existing armoured fighting vehicles fleet and other networked defence assets at the time of initial FRES fielding, sustaining coherence through life. The four companies would apply their proven UK based competence from complex programmes to achieve rapid insertion of effective technology from the MoD’s supply base to ensure battle winning capability for our armed forces deployed in operations. “Each team member contributes to the balance of skills required for a strong systems integrator role on this major program and Fusion will be demonstrably independent of individual suppliers” says Sir Kevin Tebbit, Chairman of Finmeccanica UK. “Our strategic objective is to bring this expertise to bear, in full partnership with the UK Ministry of Defence and the potential supply chain, to ensure a through- life response to the requirement which is low risk, provides value for money and is compliant with the Defence Industrial Strategy.” About Fusion Led by Finmeccanica, Fusion offers the best in integration skills, programme management expertise and knowledge of synthetic environments needed for the FRES programme.

    1 BASIC PAPERS BASIC PAPERS BASIC PAPERS OCCASIONAL PAPERS ON INTERNATIONAL SECURITY POLICY March 2006, Number 50 The UK Defence Industrial Strategy and Alternative Approaches By Dr Steven Schofield Key Points in this Paper • The UK Defence Industrial Strategy (DIS) is a lost opportunity of historic proportions. Rather than address a broader global security context and the role that the UK’s manufacturing and technology base could play within it; the Ministry of Defence is continuing the drive for ever-more sophisticated and expensive military platforms. • This obsession with military capabilities is not inevitable and has been questioned in the past, especially in the early 1950s and mid 1960s. The Labour government under Harold Wilson provided a strong critique of the UK’s dependency on military R&D and a similar debate is needed now in the modern context of the UK as a medium-sized European economy. • Radical reforms to improve value for money in defence procurement have come and gone (e.g. the Levene Reforms of the 1980s and the launch of the Defence Procurement Agency in 1999), with little real impact on delays and cost overruns. Smart Procurement became Smart Acquisition in 1999, but the Public Accounts Committee concluded in 2005 that, “Smart Acquisition is at risk of becoming the latest in a long line of failed attempts to improve defence procurement”. • The internationalisation of the military-industrial sector has been the most significant development, with American corporations now dominating global defence markets. BAE Systems emerged as the sole ‘British’ global military- industrial giant: over 50 per cent of major UK defence contracts are now placed with BAE.
