TWO Adelaide-based engineering companies have been selected by BAE Systems Australia to help digitise its supply chain for the $45bn Hunterclass frigates program.

Century Engineering and MG Engineering will sit on BAE’s “strategic supplier panel”, working with the prime contractor to develop a “digital thread” that will track and trace components from conception through to manufacture and installation on the frigates at the Osborne shipyard.

The pilot program will be formally announced on Wednesday when BAE meets with suppliers at the Indo Pacific International Maritime Exposition in Sydney.
