Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fourth time in this Parliament that the Committee has examined the Government's proposals for a public-private partnership for the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (DERA), which are inextricably linked to the trading fund Order. The Order, if approved, would on 1 July 2001 set up the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory - that part of DERA which will remain in the public sector after the public-private partnership - as a trading fund. The Committee is disappointed that the evidence shows that areas of uncertainty it had previously identified remain unresolved. The Committee concludes that if the government is resolutely set on changing the status of DERA, and that a delay in approving the trading fund Order will only serve to undermine the prospects for a successful flotation and to further damage DERA's already brittle staff morale, neither of which the Committee wishes to see. It is because the Order takes forward the partial privatisation of DERA, however, that the Committee cannot lend its positive support to it. Though now at the eleventh hour, the Committee would still prefer that the proposed public-private partnership for the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency was abandoned. [HC website]
Book Synopsis The privatisation of QinetiQ by : Great Britain: National Audit Office
Download or read book The privatisation of QinetiQ written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-11-23 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines whether the privatisation of the defence technology business QinetiQ was a good deal for the taxpayer. QinetiQ was created out of the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency (DERA) in 2001 specifically to allow the majority of DERA's activities to be privatised. In 2003 a minority stake in the business (33.8 per cent) was sold to a strategic partner, Carlyle Group, and 3.7 per cent was sold to management and employees. Carlyle and the Ministry of Defence (MoD) used share incentives to align their interests and to incentivise management to increase the value of the business. The MoD did not want management to make very large returns purely as a result of the privatisation, but it accepted that management could make significant sums of money if this was linked to the growth in the value of the business. The structure of the deal gave QinetiQ an equity value of £125 million. This increased to £1.3 billion between the 2003 sale and the 2006 stock market flotation, due to improved business performance, expansion into the US defence market and the UK civil market. The value of the shares of the top ten managers at flotation was £107 million from an initial investment of £537,250. The National Audit Office (NAO) believes the returns in this case exceeded what was necessary to incentivise management to deliver growth in the value of the business. Although privatisation has realised some £800 million for the taxpayer, net of costs, NAO considers that more money could have been raised from the sale, but it praises the business strategy that increased the value of QinetiQ and maximised the proceeds at flotation.
Book Synopsis British Weapons Acquisition Policy and the Futility of Reform by : Warren A. Chin
Download or read book British Weapons Acquisition Policy and the Futility of Reform written by Warren A. Chin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 2004. This incisive work reveals the causes of escalating costs and delays in British defence procurement from 1945 to the present. Tackling a complex subject in a straightforward and readable manner, it considers how successive British governments reacted to this problem, why they adopted the reforms they did and why these reforms failed to have any meaningful effect on the operation of this process. The study draws upon a number of disciplines such as economics, politics and science and engineering to provide a broad synthesis that allows the reader to understand the technicalities of the process. The conclusion reached is that there is no apparent solution to the problem of intergenerational costs of weapons, but that a key to controlling the growing cost of projects during their development lies in the construction of a more effective research and development strategy, a path followed by Margaret Thatcher's predecessors and one that is also being advocated today.

Book Synopsis Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States by : National Research Council
Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
