Here’s how you can use Reporting 2.0 features to get ahead – and stay ahead – in Australia’s fast-evolving defence landscape.

Make Smarter, Data-Led Strategic Decisions across Your Organisation

AusDIP Reporting 2.0 transforms the way you understand the defence supply chain. Instead of relying on outdated reports or anecdotal intel, you now have access to network-wide, anonymised data on supplier capabilities and locations – whenever you need it.

You can answer questions like:

• Where are the suppliers of the capabilities I need located?
• Are there more potential suppliers we can recruit to fill our supply chain gaps?
• Are there enough regional suppliers to support a decentralised delivery model?
• How many Indigenous or veteran-owned businesses are active in this capability?

AusDIP Reporting 2.0 isn’t just a tool for analysts or business development managers – it delivers value across your entire organisation. Procurement and supply chain managers can proactively map and evaluate potential partners. HR and workforce development leads can identify where contingent staff can be sourced. And for bid teams, the data can support more competitive pricing and better alignment with buyer needs.

Whether you’re strengthening procurement strategies, expanding into new locations, or aiming to meet industry participation targets, AusDIP Reporting 2.0 helps you build a smarter, more inclusive supply chain – backed by data, not assumptions.

This used to be the domain of consultants and defence insiders. Now, it’s accessible to every business in the Defence ecosystem.

Strengthen and De-Risk Your Supply Chain

Supply chain risk is real – and it’s only growing. Whether it’s regional disruptions, compliance burdens, or over-reliance on a single supplier, the ability to proactively manage your supplier network is critical. AusDIP Reporting 2.0 shows you what is being delivered where, across hundreds of categories of services and materials.

Need to find backup suppliers? Looking to diversify engineering support? Curious about regional service coverage? Now you can answer those questions before they become problems. It’s a more innovative way to plan for scale, continuity, and risk reduction.

This allows you to reduce risk in your sourcing strategies proactively. Identify additional options in the critical capabilities and diversify your supplier base.

For defence primes and contractors at each level, this is especially critical. Many contracts now require documented evidence of risk mitigation planning in your supply chain. Reporting 2.0 helps you meet those requirements with confidence.

Find the Right Partners to Win Complex Tenders

Today’s defence tenders often require multi-disciplinary teams, joint bids, or a blend of specialist suppliers and large contractors. But collaboration shouldn’t rely on luck.

AusDIP Reporting 2.0 shows you where capabilities are clustered. All of this is anonymised – protecting commercial confidence while still surfacing valuable patterns.

This makes it easier to:

• Identify complementary or target suppliers in your region
• Reach out proactively to form partnerships
• Structure stronger bids, faster

The ability to find the right delivery partners can determine whether or not you win a contract. Primes and contractors are increasingly looking for reliable, specialised SMEs to round out their teams. If you can see the sourcing activity early and understand how your business fits into the bigger picture, you can get ahead of the curve.

By using real-time data to build targeted alliances, you’re no longer waiting on networking events, chance meetings or third-party referrals. You’re building your own network, on your own terms.
