Internal Control and Assurance Frameworks: External support is required to develop control frameworks covering all functional areas (key areas were: finance, commercial, civilian and military personnel, logistics, acquisition, security and business resilience) and business units (Army, Navy, Air, JFC, DIO, HOCS and DE&S). The development of control frameworks will include assessment of key risks, design of controls and assurance strategies for controls.

Assistance may also be sought in the selection and implementation of a risk software tool.
