responsibility for ensuring that the amalgamation of RAF Brize Norton and RAF Lyneham is achieved in the required timescale without impacting on operations.
To achieve that goal, he has set up a structured programme with Air Commodore Paul Oborn as Programme Director and Group Captain David Houghton as his Programme Manager. The core Programme Future Brize Team has set up home in the old Dental Centre at Brize. By establishing a structured programme, AOC 2 Group can ensure that all the activities and the associated decisions that must be made, are taken forward in good time.
Intellectual effort To make sure those things happen, a huge amount of time and intellectual effort has been spent ‘baselining’ the Programme – effectively working out exactly what it is that we need to do. That baselining, which has now been divided into nine work stream areas (Infrastructure, Equipment, People and Organisation, Information & CIS, Logistics & Engineering Support, Relocation, Operations & APOE, Lyneham Closure and Training) has identified a huge number of Projects and Sub-projects which need to be completed in order to ensure that the amalgamation of the two Stations is achieved on time and as smoothly as possible. The work that needs to be done to make the Programme happen has already started and will continue until the amalgamation of the two bases is complete.
No stopping it now Programme Future Brize has hit the ground running and will continue to accelerate over the coming weeks and months. Nobody is underestimating the size of the challenge we face over the next two years but I am confident that we will make Future Brize work and, ultimately, develop RAF Brize Norton into an airbase fit for the next 50 years and a Station at which people will remain proud to serve.
