About this course
An immersion in the development of military capability, focused on problem definition, the Operational Concept Description (how the capability and its solution elements will be used), the Concept of Operations (how the capability outcome is to be achieved) and the specification of technology items and services that form part of the solution. PPI states that the content transfers to any substantial business or public infrastructure system, and that no prior experience of OCD or CONOPS is needed.
