#Collaboration at its finest! You may recall in recent news the Australian Government is turbo charging export opportunities for Australian defence industry through a significant expansion of the Global Supply Chain (GSC) Program by welcoming six new primes into the fold (yes – that includes Babcock!). Babcock’s first official engagement under the GSC Program was a symposium held in Canberra in late-July, where our GSC delivery team met with other program participants to gain a greater understanding of the expectations and opportunities that exist. Kellie Jenkins, Global Supply Chain Program Manager (Australia) said the symposium was a success with all GSC Program primes coming together with a united goal – to collaborate for the benefit of the Australian defence industry. “It was wonderful to meet with representatives from other Primes involved in the GSC Program. By working together, we can better contribute to the objectives of the Commonwealth, for the benefit of the Australian defence industry. We look forward to working proactively and cooperatively with other GSC primes to share best practices and capabilities for improved outcomes by boosting exports and reducing duplication of effort.” Missed the news or want more information?
