HENDERSON ALLIANCE

PROMOTE - FACILITATE - DEVELOP - SUSTAIN - ADVOCATE

Formed in 2017, the Henderson Alliance is a dynamic and progressive alliance of small to medium enterprises (SMEs) taking positive action to work collaboratively and build capability to create a better business environment, with new opportunities generated in defence-related industries and other specialised sectors of advanced manufacturing.

Focus on Improving SME Capabilities
We have focused to date not just on information-sharing, SME capability improvements and creating opportunities for our members to establish key linkages with the Primes - but also interstate partnering, innovation and R&D activities.
​
We don't see ourselves as a standard industry organisation - we are run by volunteers and are therefore focused directly on achieving tangible outcomes with as little bureaucracy as possible.
​
We always take a very positive and collaborative approach - and our Management Board includes representation from outside the industry to ensure we bring in fresh ideas and professional focus.

Current Priorities
Our current priorities include working with the government and other parties to create an improved industry structure in WA, one which ensures a clear focus and shared outcomes.

We will also continue to actively promote the defence industry capabilities of WA and its talented SME sector - for instance, we see great potential for WA to provide components and support services to the frigate and submarine construction projects in Osborne - and have already created interstate networks and partnerships to facilitate this.
​
But we also see an exciting new edge coming forward where we are looking at creating fresh new synergies utilising the best innovations from other industries and then working with R&D agencies to develop new products and initiatives.
