Systecon at South Australian Defence Summit 2026

The ADM South Australian Defence Summit brings together government, defence, industry, and academic leaders to explore the challenges and opportunities shaping South Australia's defence landscape, from naval shipbuilding and sovereign capability to emerging technologies and workforce development. As South Australia continues to anchor Australia's naval infrastructure investment and AUKUS submarine program, Systecon looks forward to engaging with organisations driving the future of maritime capability and sustainment.

Andrew Perkins will be onsite in Adelaide to connect with industry and government representatives and discuss how model-based analysis and decision support can support speed to capability and strengthen long-term capability outcomes. Prebook a meeting with Andrew to discuss how analysis-driven life cycle management can support increased readiness, resilience, and operational effectiveness across maritime and defence programs.
