In recognition of the complexity of sustaining defence capabilities, including through timely defence procurement, the CDA Institute initiated the Force Development Series to bring together subject matter experts from across academia, government, industry and serving and retired military members for open and frank roundtable discussions. These events facilitate multistakeholder, solutions-focused dialogue and expert analysis on pressing challenges affecting the Canadian Armed Forces’ readiness and capabilities.
This report summarizes the discussions held during a CDA Institute roundtable on ‘Digital Transformation in the Canadian Armed Forces’ on December 6, 2023. It provides a comprehensive overview of the key points made by the invited experts. The report aims to promote better understanding and informed debate about the challenges associated with sustaining this critical capability for Canadians. Complying with the Chatham House rule, the report does not attribute any comments to individuals.
