MNF News Update | Have your say - MNF Capability Needs survey
The Marine National Facility (MNF) is seeking feedback about the research capabilities that are needed from research vessel (RV) Investigator.
CSIRO invites ship users and end users of our research to participate in a short survey about your marine research capability needs. The survey provides an opportunity to propose capability additions, enhancements and upgrades that are needed for RV Investigator to meet your research needs.
The information gathered through this survey will help inform the development of the MNF 5-Year Strategic CAPEX (Capital Expenditure) Plan to ensure we continue to support researcher and national priority research needs now and into the future.
Capability proposals can be made at any time and submissions will be compiled at regular intervals for review by the MNF Technical and Innovation Advisory Group (TIAG).

The next deadline for capability proposal compile and review is 24 July 2025 at 5:00pm AEST.
