Strengthening relationships with the First Nations business sector πŸ’ͺ

Supply Nation and several First Nations-owned suppliers recently spent time at the Osborne Naval Shipyard, home of the Hunter class frigates, to understand the role they can continue to play in the program.

Building one of the world’s most advanced anti-submarine frigates relies on a strong, sovereign supply chain, and it starts with meaningful partnerships and growing capability across Australian industry.

We share a vision with Supply Nation and our suppliers of a prosperous, vibrant and sustainable defence industry sector that creates more opportunities for all Australians, helping secure a strong, enduring naval shipbuilding industry for generations to come.

β€œFor us, this isn’t a box to tick, it’s about genuine relationships and building authentic partnerships to create meaningful, lasting impact.”

In two of the Northern Territory’s most remote communities, Engawala and Atitjere, students had the opportunity to engage in hands-on STEM learning through the Beacon First Nations STEM education program.

The Beacon program brings practical, immersive learning into classrooms, sparking curiosity and building interest in STEM for students who might not otherwise have access.

This National Reconciliation Week, we reaffirm our commitment to our Reconciliation Action Plan driving lasting impact through programs like Beacon, every day.

Daughters Day, in partnership with AMWU - Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union, is part of our ongoing work to show girls what’s possible in skilled trades.

Recently, some of our trades workers proudly brought their daughters to the Osborne shipyard, where they got hands-on with the tools, toured the site and experienced shipbuilding up close.

There’s many pathways into the trades, and we hope days like this spark ✨ confidence and curiosity about future careers in shipbuilding and beyond.

Destroyer Enterprise receives distinguished CASG Engineering and Technical award πŸ†βš“

Australia’s frontline Hobart class destroyers now have enhanced naval strike capabilities thanks to outstanding efforts from the Destroyer Enterprise, which includes members from our Garden Island team in Sydney.

The new strike capabilities β€” Naval Strike Missile, Tomahawk Cruise Missile and Standard Missile 6 systems β€” met a rigorous timeline going from preliminary design to installation to successful onboard test firings in rapid succession.

Increasing lethality across the Hobart class, the achievement represents a significant uplift in capability and a major milestone for . πŸš€

The Destroyer Enterprise has won the Gold Capability Acquisition and Sustainment Group (CASG) Group Commendation – Sustainment Team of the Year award for this incredible body of work. Congratulations to our team and our enterprise partners! πŸŽ‰πŸ₯³πŸŽŠ

As the Capability Lifecycle Manager for the Hobart class, and as part of the broader Destroyer Enterprise, we deliver sustainment services ensuring these ships remain mission ready and capable when it matters most.
