Royal Air Force

About the RAF
RAF Brize Norton is already the largest and busiest station in the Royal Air Force, and constantly in the public eye as the main airfield used for deploying UK troops worldwide. Programme Future Brize is a GBP340m programme to establish Brize Norton as the RAF's centre for air transport and air-to-air refuelling operations, and significantly reduce costs through the closure of RAF Lyneham.
The Approach
In a turnaround project, Amtec (and partners Hitachi Consulting) addressed the key programme management components required for a successful outcome. These included:
  • Ensuring programme stability
  • Providing visibility of current project status
  • Transferring skills
The Outcome
The result is that the Future Brize programme now has the structure, governance and momentum needed to succeed. With the programme back on track, cost savings are projected at GBP23 million per annum, morale is high and people aspects (such as the impact on RAF families) are a top priority.
"Not only did the Amtec/Hitachi team provide focused and professional advice in order to put this programme onto a proper structured footing, but they also engaged enthusiastically with their RAF counterparts to provide essential, real-time support on a daily basis. Their energy and motivation helped to revive a struggling programme and gave the RAF team the tools and the confidence to take this programme forward with vigour."
Air Commodore Paul Oborn CBE RAF, Programme Future Brize Director
