Defence Acquisition Board

The Defence Acquisition Board (DAB) is a high-level decision-making body within a country's armed forces and government responsible for overseeing the planning, development, and procurement of defense equipment and technology. It reviews and approves major projects, ensuring they meet strategic needs, budgets, and timelines. The DAB aims to ensure that military acquisitions are efficient, effective, and aligned with national security objectives, preventing cost overruns and delays, and guaranteeing that resources are used judiciously for the nation's defense readiness.
