Unlocking Australian supply chain opportunities
On 9 November, Thales Australia in conjunction with the VDA-Submarine and VDA-Maritime Alliances held an Industry Engagement Seminar in Melbourne. For VDA members it was an opportunity to learn about forthcoming engagement opportunities on both the current and Future Submarine programs with Underwater Systems (UWS).
Thales Australia recognises the essential role that close collaborative relationships with our local and global suppliers plays in the future success of our business and in the development of innovative Defence capability for our customers. Strong engagement with customers, SME suppliers and research institutions combined with technology transfer from our global business enables Thales to tailor high quality solutions for Australian and export markets.
A copy of the briefing notes is available here.
