The strategy’s astute recognition that traditional procurement processes and outdated system development methodologies are inadequate for outpacing and outmaneuvering future adversaries marks a pivotal juncture. As a believer of the ‘New Defence’ paradigm, TEKEVER unequivocally endorses this perspective. Our agile operational ethos attests to the efficacy of this approach. Our recent activities have proven that this approach enables high quality systems that can be swiftly adapted to confront the dynamic challenges of the contemporary battlefield.
Consider this: The approach advocated by the strategy aligns more closely with the practices of modern software companies than with those of legacy defence manufacturers. By emphasising iterative improvements and adaptability, we can ensure that our military capabilities remain relevant and effective.
At the heart of the strategy lies a fundamental shift: prioritising meeting the challenges faced by our warfighters over rigid requirements and specifications by building collaborative relationships with industry partners. This shift is monumental. Rather than being bound by bureaucratic red tape, the focus shifts to delivering capability to the front line swiftly and effectively.
At its core, the strategy signals a paradigm shift: prioritising the challenges of our warfighters over rigid specifications by building collaborative alliances with industry partners. This shift is monumental. Rather than being bound by bureaucratic red tape, industry can focus towards rapid delivery of cutting-edge capabilities to the front lines.
Envision a scenario where our armed forces can promptly counter emergent threats, unhampered by cumbersome procurement protocols. The strategy duly acknowledges the imperative for agility and responsiveness, and TEKEVER stands resolute in our commitment to catalysing this transformation.
As our world becomes more complex and disruptive threats loom, ensuring a robust and thriving sovereign industrial base is paramount. The commitment to a long-term funding plan facilitates the requisite investments to enable this ambition. Industry players, including TEKEVER, recognise their pivotal role in this endeavor. Our establishment of a state-of-the-art development, training, and manufacturing hub in West Wales epitomizes this commitment, fostering the creation of high-skilled employment opportunities and spearheading future technological advancements. Collaborative efforts between government, academia, and private enterprises are essential for propelling the UK’s domestic drone industry to new heights. This collaborative effort not only bolsters national security but also creates jobs and stimulates economic growth.
TEKEVER’s legacy as a trailblazer software innovator, dedicated to overcoming complex challenges, uniquely positions us to actively contribute to the areas highlighted by the strategy. Whether we are advancing autonomous systems, enhancing situational awareness, or driving innovation, we remain committed to playing our part in this new world.
In summary, the UxS strategy document isn’t just a set of guidelines; it’s a roadmap to a more agile, responsive, and capable defence ecosystem. As we navigate the complexities of the modern battlefield, let’s embrace this vision and work together to secure a safer future for the UK.
TAKING THE LEAD – Embracing the Future: The UxS Strategy, by Mark Baxter
TEKEVER warmly welcomes the recently announced UxS strategy document from the UK Ministry of Defence as a clear vision of the future of uncrewed systems in the UK. The recognition of the need to learn lessons from current experiences to ensure the UK has strong sovereign capabilities to meet future challenges through a broad approach to change is applauded. We are committed to supporting the implementation of this strategy.
