The role ensures that ADF mission planners and flight crew have access to up to date, relevant and accurate terminal procedures in digital format, for operations in Australia and abroad.

Applicants engaged into a BDCP position must consider the following. This arrangement is subject to meeting eligibility criteria and is subject to annual review. Should your performance fall beyond requirements or the eligibility criteria not be met, your eligibility for the BDCP may be reviewed and ceased. It may also be ceased should you change positions or the requirement for the BDCP is no longer necessary, as determined by Defence. Should the BDCP be ceased you will be advised and your BDCP additional payment will cease.
