This paper presents an application of work domain analysis to a new joint operational headquarters of the Australian Defence Force. Work domain analysis provides a baseline for defining the problem space of operational-level command and control. This analytical framework focuses evaluation on how well the purposive context is satisfied so that, in this context, the design outcome is a usable and flexible headquarters, leading to improved efficiency and effectiveness of staff. The paper describes our attempt to analyse fundamental constraints of the work environment.
