2014

While employed as the Deputy Director of Technological Solutions in Navy Strategy Executive, the Royal Australian Navy, Daniel developed the Navy Strategic Management System. This system displayed a dashboard which showed the amalgamated measures of risk, performance and strategic objectives, all correlated against each other. This system allowed the Chief of Navy and his advisors to see on a single dashboard the risks which were being experienced and required mitigation, the performance of the fleet, and the achievement of strategic objectives, including the introduction of new capabilities. This is a critical tool that continues to guide decision making at the highest levels of the Navy. For this work, Daniel was nominated as the ICT Young Professional of the Year for 2014, where he was awarded as a finalist.
