Enterprise Partnering Agreement

Strengthening Australia's naval combat management system capability - an Australian enterprise approach to fleet wide combat management systems, ensuring a technological advantage into the future and a sustainable combat system capability and workforce.

Working in partnership with Navy to protect the country

A collaborative partnership between Saab and the Commonwealth of Australia, the Enterprise Partnering Agreement (EPA) has been established to provide a common and sovereign combat management system (CMS) across the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) fleet. A common and capable CMS strengthens operational capabilities, provides timely delivery of future capability and promotes more efficient training and sustainment. Saab combat management systems are currently deployed across the Navy on the Anzac class frigates, Canberra class landing helicopter docks, Supply class auxiliary oiler replenishment vessels and the Arafura class offshore patrol vessels. The Saab developed Australian Interface will be deployed on the upgraded Hobart class air warfare destroyers and the Hunter class frigates.

Proven combat capability, world leading situational awareness and a sovereign defence capability

A collaborative partnership between Saab and the Commonwealth, the EPA strengthens sovereign capability and provides the RAN with capability they require to protect Australia and its interests - the Australian Combat Management System (AusCMS).  

The AusCMS empowers the Commonwealth to select the combat system elements required on each vessel to meet Australia's unique maritime operational requirements.

The partnership delivers benefits from across force posture, fleet planning and surface combatant operations to helping meet the Commonwealth's strategic and value-for-money objectives.
