A message from Stuart, one of our ILS Summer School teachers!

Mike and I would like to update everyone on development for this year’s ILS summer school contents. We have decided that this year the ILS School will discuss Green Procurement and how ILS can support the new Environmental and Social issues raised by new public procurement initiatives and guidance.

The Acquisition by the Danish Defence Organisation of a large fleet of heavy trucks for both commercial and military operations set many challenges for the delivery organisation. Magnus Johansson is a senior programme manager at a large vehicle manufacturer with broad experience in management, systems engineering and ILS. Over the past 17 years Magnus has experience from FMV and in Industry, for example Satellite Communication. Magnus has also provided expert advice as a consultant towards government agencies. As a retired Swedish Army officer, he also has the experiences from the user perspective in operation and sustainment of such systems in peacetime and in operations.

Magnus will present the key challenges the delivery team and the customer face in such an acquisition programme in relationship to ILS, Systems Engineering and management.
