Working with Defence
What New Zealand businesses need to work with Defence, and the support available to meet it.
1. Readiness Information
What New Zealand Defence expects from its suppliers, set out in the tables below by compliance area and by type of work. Free to use.
A half-day or full-day assessment on site, measuring your business against what Defence will expect for the work you want to do. You get a written action plan covering what is already in place, what is missing and what to do about each gap, with follow-up recommendations as you work through it.
2. Readiness Assessment
3. Closing the Gaps
Support to close the gaps the assessment finds. Work in quality and risk management systems is delivered directly. Anything outside that is referred to a specialist.
