This FOI release is the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry's Digital Investment Plan for FY26-27, a six-section planning document covering agency overview, digital outlook from short to long term, current state systems, investment planning, enablers and risks. It lists existing business-critical systems across export certification, import biosecurity (including Cargo Online Lodgement System and Post Entry Biosecurity System), audit, residue monitoring, ABARES data and levies management. It names major programs such as STEPS and CapSTAR, cites a range of strategies including the National Biosecurity Strategy and Biosecurity 2030 Roadmap, and identifies risks around ageing legacy systems, technical debt, workforce shortages and cyber security. Most of the new systems and funding figures in Section 4 are redacted under sections 47D and 47E(d). No specific commodity, pest or disease incident, risk assessment or regulatory decision is disclosed, and no quantified outbreak or trade impacts appear.
