December Site Visit: Austal Ships

Our last event for 2009 provided a rare opportunity to visit Austal Ships head office and operations in Henderson.

Austal Ships

Austal Ships is an impressive WA success story having grown to become the world leader in the design and construction of customised aluminium commercial and defence vessels. Austal’s vessels are found in service all over the world and the company has now expanded manufacturing operations to the USA.

Our thanks to the host for the visit, Namejs Kins, General Manager – Strategic Sourcing Group. Namejs who provided a very open and informative overview of the company and it’s operations.  We all understand the dominance of the resources sector within the WA economy.

A key feature of the sector is the focus on extraction and exportation with limited Australian based value adding downstream activity. It is organisations like Austal Ships that bring a welcome diversity to the economy.

It was enlightening to see the supply chain and manufacturing complexity that this organisation works with and how this is combined with the surprisingly short project durations given the scale of the vessels produced. The build quality and attention to detail is second to none and this is reflected in the repeat orders the company receives from customers all over the world.
