SAGE sustaining the Royal Australian Navy’s Hobart Class DDGs

Published: July 13, 2023 - Updated: July 13, 2023

SAGE has been selected by the Commonwealth of Australia to provide sustainment services for a number of sovereign supply support agreements for the Hobart Class Guided Missile Destroyers (DDGs).

 

SAGE has successfully tendered for seven supply chain standing contracts for the DDGs as part of a panel of supply and support contractors providing materiel and sustainment activities and ongoing through-life support for the following categories:

  • General Electrical Components
  • Repairable Item Services
  • Pumps and Pump Related Parts
  • Valves and Valve Components
  • Electrical Motors and Electric Motor Components
  • General Mechanical Systems.
  • Detegasa Equipment

The objectives of the latest these contracts include improvements in the efficiency and effectiveness of procurements for DDG sustainment. The contracts deliver improved value-for-money outcomes for the Commonwealth as well as enabling a closer working relationship supporting sustainment of the DDGs.

 

These standing offers are also available to support other Royal Australian Navy Classes of Ships and this broader utilisation has now started across the fleet.

 

The Maritime Sustainment Division’s Plan Galileo introduces the concept of Regional Maintenance Centres (RMCs) around Australia – a collaborative effort, coordinated by Navy, to enable sovereign sustainment support. SAGE will work alongside the Commonwealth and other successful tenderers – primes, local businesses, and suppliers – to deliver naval sustainment.

 

“SAGE is proud to be working together with the Commonwealth and key players in Australia’s Defence industry to maintain and enhance the fleet that protects our nation,” said Adam Kiryk, SAGE Head of Defence.

“By pooling our expertise and resources, we can achieve new levels of innovation and capability to support the Commonwealth’s ambitious goals for its fast-growing, world-class fleet.”

 

SAGE is actively providing supporting activities in varying capacities to other classes of Navy platforms, including the Canberra Class Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD), Supply Class Auxiliary Oiler Replenishment (AOR), Anzac Class Frigate (FFH), and Collins Class Submarine (SSG).

 

With more than 25 years of experience in delivering sovereign, reliable, scalable, and secure digital transformation solutions, SAGE is well-equipped to provide end-to-end defence solutions for the Navy, Army, and Air Force.
