The Australian Made Campaign is continuing to work strategically to link manufacturers with the major projects through Industry Capability Network (ICN). It is doing this as part of the Federal Government's Buy Australian at Home and Abroad (BAHA) initiative.
Importantly, Australian Made and ICN are in the early stages of developing a webinar series aimed at providing manufacturers of Australian products with a greater understanding of the ICN Gateway - an online connection point for buyers and suppliers looking to build partnerships. The ICN Gateway enables suppliers to search major projects and register their company's interest with just a few easy steps.
“Our aim is to provide Australian Made licensees with improved and ongoing access to upcoming project information and opportunities,” Australian Made Supply Chain Advisor, Ben Lazzaro, said.
“In conjunction with the ICN, we are looking forward to developing a webinar series that demonstrates the capabilities of the ICN Gateway, and shows licensees how to navigate and get the most out of it. By providing licensees with better access to project information and business opportunities, together we can maximise local content in major projects.”
ICN Gateway performance (July-September 2012)
- 2503 new suppliers added
- 24 new major projects listed
- 1948 contracts won
- $1.82 billion of contracts awarded
