Key Market Issues

7. Brief SummaryBrief Summary
Reports Cornerwww.reportscorner.com
Recently, the DMO has taken criticism for the project delays and
cost overruns associated with its domestic defense
procurements, several of which have cost double the original
estimations. Currently, the Australian defense industry is facing
cost overruns and delays in its project to acquire 100 F-35 joint
strike fighters. As a result, similar opportunities may be offered to
foreign firms, rather than domestic firms, during the forecast
period.
The AIC program supports the domestic defense industry by
encouraging foreign OEMs to grant domestic access to the global
supply chain in exchange for market entry. Global supply chain
deeds can be entered into voluntarily or as part of a procurement
contract, and insist that the foreign OEM procures its equipment
or components from a domestic company.

8. Brief SummaryBrief Summary
Reports Cornerwww.reportscorner.com
While global supply chain deeds offer substantial export
opportunities to domestic firms, they can pose major concerns for
foreign OEMs, as Australian defense products are often expensive
due to high labor costs and expensive logistics related to the
country's geographical location. The government is, however,
making an effort to train domestic defense employees by schemes
such as Skilling Australia's Defense Industry (SADI).
Key Highlights
Each defense contract valuing AUD50 million (US$43.8 million) or
more must have an AIC plan as part of the tender, which facilitates
the participation of the domestic defense industry by determining
a set of activities that must be performed by sub-contracted
domestic firms. The AIC will then evaluate the bid of each
participant, and select the one that will offer the maximum
opportunity to the domestic industry at the lowest cost. its global
supply chain.

The participant may also offer domestic companies access to
While Germany has, historically, been the leading supplier of arms
to Australia, since 2007 the dynamics of the market have changed
significantly with the US taking the lead, followed by France. This
trend has been facilitated by the close military relationship
Australia shares with the US, which will also offer the US an
advantage over other supplying countries over the forecast
period. During the review period, the US accounted for the largest
percentage share. Most of the procurement programs from the US
have been executed under Foreign Military Sales (FMS). This
includes contracts with General Dynamics, and local subsidiaries
of Lockheed Martin, Boeing and Raytheon.
As a result of its highly competitive domestic shipbuilding
industry, ships account for the majority of Australian exports.

10. Brief SummaryBrief Summary
Reports Cornerwww.reportscorner.com
The industry has recently recorded achievements such as the
construction of AZNAC frigates, Huon mine hunters, and Collins
class submarines, which are the largest conventionally-powered
submarines in the world. The majority of exports were made to
New Zealand and the Netherlands.
