Leadership in collaboration
UK COUNCIL FOR ELECTRONIC BUSINESS

About UKCeB

UKCeB's mission is to accelerate secure information sharing to support collaboration in defence acquisition.

Our membership is drawn from the Aerospace and Defence Industries coupled with IT Service Providers and Consultants. We are supported by three Trade Associations; the Society of British Aerospace Companies, the Defence Manufacturers Association, and Intellect.

We accomplish our mission through leadership of a focused set of collaborative activities with members and governments to deliver a set of strategic objectives:

• Lead consensus across defence industry on key issues and the means of resolution
• Provide an independent focal point for defence industry to interact with governments
• Build upon relationships with the MOD to include other governments (primarily US)
• Lead the sharing of best practice throughout the industry and governments
• Provide guidance and advice on methods and solutions for widespread publication
• Co-operate closely with Trade Associations to deliver benefit to their members

A set of Working Groups are enabled through the UKCeB Task Force to address groupings of strategic activites. These include Information Management, Asset Management, Collaborative Infrastructure, e-Trading, Security, and Supportability Engineering (ILS).

UKCeB is an independent mutually co-operative, not-for-profit organisation funded by its members and supported by its founding Trade Associations.

Joining our communities and Working Groups and participating in our events make it possible for members to link with their peers dealing with the same issues.
