Defence and foreign affairs

The defence industry is undergoing major change, continuously restructuring its alliances and consolidating globally. An example is the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) which is facing the challenges of global security in the 21st Century. These challenges place greater emphasis on the use of technology at the front line and in support.

The MoD has been one of our major clients over the last 16 years. Because of this we have a large number of consultants who understand both the MoD and Defence Industry and can fit into the unique and diverse culture of the organisation. In working with the Ministry of Defence we can demonstrate our capabilities and experience in:

Operational effectiveness - with specific focus on:

  • Governance - PricewaterhouseCoopers are recognised as leaders in the provision of corporate governance advice and sustainability
  • Internal audit
  • Change management and
  • Performance improvement
Accounting support - accounting for activities and maximising the use of assets at the front line. We have been a key adviser during the MoD’s recent transition to resource accounting and budgeting.

Consulting support for the successful implementation partnerships & alliances, including PPP and PFI.
