Defence Plan 2010-2014

The Defence Plan is the MOD's top level management plan for the financial years 10/11 to 13/14, setting out the Defence objectives and driving business activity within the Department.

The narrative element of the Plan outlines the Public Service Agreements and Departmental Strategic objectives that provide the framework within which MOD works. The Plan also provides an overview of the Strategy for Defence and sub-strategy framework and the new performance management system for the Defence Board - the Defence Performance Framework. The Defence Board Strategic Objectives are then detailed - these form the quarterly reporting element of the Defence Performance Framework.
