Tender Description

ASC is Australia’s leading sovereign capability on submarine platforms, including the management of local and international supply chains.

ASC employs more than 1000 employees across its sites. ASC built and now sustains the Royal Australian Navy’s fleet of six Collins Class Submarines and is an integral part of Australia’s maritime defence strategy and national security framework.

ASC’s capability in specialised submarine construction and maintenance is located at two key sites in Osborne, South Australia and Henderson, Western Australia.

ASC’s submarine platform capability is aligned with that of the Royal Australian Navy. ASC undertakes the platform integration of the major systems and identifies and implements design improvements through a combination of in-country engineering know-how, advanced manufacturing and an extensive local and global supply chain.

As a leader in the defence industry, ASC prides itself on the quality of services and products, its proven innovation, integrity and delivery.

ASC is seeking suppliers, including Small to Medium Enterprises, to work to continue to deliver world benchmark capability. ASC is committed to a sovereign supply chain capability and to partnering with Overseas Equipment Manufacturers to achieve this.

Suppliers interested in participating in programs at ASC are requested to respond to the ASC Expressions of Interest on the ICN portal. As ASC seeks to engage with industry on specific work requirements, suppliers with compatible capabilities will be contacted.

This questionnaire aims to capture a richer understanding of the industrial capabilities that exist in our current and future Submarine Supply Chains.

As ASC maintain ongoing sustainment of the Collins Class Submarine fleet and consider future opportunities we will continue to work through potential supply solutions. The information contained in this questionnaire will be invaluable in helping ASC understand and analyse capability gaps where they may exist and work with industry and the CoA to bridge those gaps.
