The Australian Army (DCAFE Trial)

Last Updated:8 April 2026

We recently worked with the Australian Army on the Deputy Chief of Army Flexible Establishment (DCAFE) Trial to deliver a large order of customised notebooks. In their demanding environment, clear documentation and coordination are essential, so they needed a reliable, durable notebook for their team. We supplied 900 custom notebooks, ensuring each met the high standards set by the Australian Defence Force.

Production

Ordering 900 notebooks in bulk helped the Australian Army get a much better price per unit. We offered volume discounts to keep the project affordable. Our design team made sure the Army’s insignia was clear and professional on every notebook. We also chose strong covers and quality paper so the notebooks would hold up in any environment.

Smooth Communication and Tactical Delivery

The DCAFE Trial team gave us great feedback, especially about how smoothly we communicated during the order process. Handling an order of almost a thousand notebooks for a government client takes careful planning and regular updates, which we made a priority. Trial participants said the new notebooks helped standardise note-taking and led to a 2.7% boost in administrative efficiency during field reporting.

Why Mary recommends Notebooks?

With my years of experience in corporate and government branding, I always suggest a high-quality notebook for large-scale trials and internal rollouts. By opting for a 900-piece volume run, we were able to deliver a premium, long-lasting product that fits the DCAFE team’s budget perfectly. It’s a smart way to ensure consistent branding while providing a practical tool that personnel will use every single day.
