Next Steps in Defence
Now that you have taken your first steps into exploring Defence and your business opportunities within the industry, it's now time to get the next level of understanding to assist in navigating your way.
With over 30 years of Defence experience, Tim will share insights and lessons learned from above and below the line, to help suppliers better understand their obligations and avoid common pitfalls when entering into Defence contracts.
The workshop aims to provide participants with an understanding of what occurs post their designation as Preferred Supplier for a contract with Defence or a Defence Prime. It will cover a range of topics including:
- Above and Below the line contracting
- Contract negotiations
- Key activities and critical considerations leading up to contract commencement and subsequently in delivery.
Make sure your first steps in Defence after winning your first contract are the right ones, and side step risks that can derail a new company to Defence. If you’re serious about winning work in Defence, this masterclass is a must. We look forward to seeing you there!
