MOD provides a range of ICT services to Industry through its Defence Digital organisation (formerly Information Systems and Services – ISS)) with a range of Industry Engagment.. This area of the TD-Info web site has been set up to help to ensure coherence across service life-cycle phases and service provider contract changes, to reduce business continuity risks and align roadmaps.
