The Raytheon Australia Global Supply Chain Pathways Program, previously known as the Industry Development Unit or IDU, is responsible for delivering the Department of Defence’s Global Supply Chain Program in Australia.

The GSCP Program has facilitated the award of multiple contracts to Australian businesses. Australian and United States joint programs have secured more than $155 million in contracts, with RTX’s global supply chain exceeding $460 million.

The GSCP program will support Australian businesses in integrating into global supply chains, diversifying their revenue, driving economies of scale, and building industrial resilience through exports.

Raytheon Australia is committed to maximising Australian Industry Capability and global supply chain opportunities for Australian industry and small and medium enterprises by creating domestic and export opportunities for Australian suppliers through both Raytheon Australia and RTX supply chains.

Capability Plus is Raytheon Australia’s small and medium enterprise (SME) engagement program. Providing a broad combination of mentoring, training, skills transfer, and other support developed in partnership with the individual SMEs, Capability Plus focuses on what will best support organisations to improve their capability and competitiveness, both here in Australia, and potentially on the world stage.

Capability Plus is cultivating long-term partnerships between Raytheon Australia and local SMEs, to strengthen and grow organisations, enabling them to support the nation’s defence objectives in developing greater supply chain resilience and self-reliance.

Capability Plus is creating practical pathways for SMEs to grow within Defence and contribute to increasing Australia’s supply chain resilience and sovereign industrial base.
