In Australia the Capability Development Group ("CDG") and Defence Materiel Organisation ("DMO") have equivalent roles to the MoD Capability Sponsor (ECC as was) and DE&S in the UK.
Like DE&S, the DMO was established through the merger of the acquisition (Defence Acquisition Organisation) and logistics (National Support Division and Support Command Australia) components. The Defence Science and Technology Organisation ("DSTO") is the counterpart of the DSTL.
