Commercial Contracting

The Commercial Contracting section facilitates the procurement of goods, repairs and services from North American defence suppliers. We are part of the Australian Government's Defence Materiel Organization, and place/manage contracts between the Government of Australia (primarily DMO, but also other Defence and Government agencies) and North American defence suppliers. Current activities include support for operational requirements as well as on-going supply, repair and services for most DMO SPOs; this includes acquisition of new equipment.
