A contract has been signed with Naval Ship Management (Australia ), a
new joint venture between Babcock and United Group Limited Infrastructure, for
the repair and maintenance of the Navy’s eight ANZAC Class frigates.
A contract has been signed with Naval Ship Management (
This contract is the first of the grouped-asset, long term,
performance-based contracts for the repair and maintenance of the Navy’s major
surface ships. It reflects extensive engagement with Defence industry to
develop a better model for the grouping or ‘batching’ of ship repair and
maintenance jobs.
The contract has an anticipated value of $300 million
dollars over five years, with the potential for rolling year-on-year contract
extensions.
The revised model is more efficient, reducing the administrative
burden of pre-event tender contracting, and providing greater predictability,
certainty and stability for industry.
It will also allow Navy to plan and forecast maintenance and
repair.
