THE 2018 event was supported by platinum sponsors Coffey and KPMG, by gold sponsors Aurecon, Broadspectrum and GHD and by a range of companies active in the Defence Estate and Base Services space. The formal and overarching theme for the 2018 event was 'legislation, collaboration and innovation driving the future of the defence estate', with other key themes including ABCC compliance, environmental management, indigenous defence, Defence and industry collaboration, a range of best practice case studies and a look at the future of the ADF's ranges around the country. Delegates from across the construction, infrastructure and service industries heard from a range of speakers, with recurrent topics discussed including the amount of construction work required at Defence bases across Australia and the difficulties of achieving the desired outcomes for Defence during a period of time when the industry is already running hot with a series of civil transport infrastructure projects about to kick off.
