What impacts is the NZDF hoping to achieve through delivering current NZDF Outputs? Most of the NZDF’s day-to-day activities, and for which it is funded, provide a range of services to multi-agencies within New Zealand, strategic shaping services through military diplomacy, and the preparation of force elements of the Navy, Army and Air Force to contribute to operations as approved by the Government of the day. This makes the NZDF unique from most other governments departments in that those departments, in their day-to-day activities, are actually delivering their ‘end product’ (their services), whereas the NZDF’s ultimate ‘end product’ is the effective contribution of NZDF force elements to operational missions - through the NZDF Output Expense Operationally Deployed Forces. The primary focus of what the NZDF does, therefore, is primarily geared to this ultimate ‘end product’ or goal. The impacts that the NZDF is hoping to achieve through the delivery of current NZDF Outputs are shown in the following table:
