Minister for Defence Industry Pat Conroy MP hosted senior Defence and Airservices Australia officials and industry representatives.
The summit brings together stakeholders to share updates and strengthen collaboration, ensuring ongoing work to deliver this important capability meets operational needs.
“This summit was an important milestone that provided representatives the opportunity to discuss the status of the remediation plan and progress made towards achieving the agreed exit criteria since the last Project of Concern Summit in September 2025,” a statement from Defence said.
“The Projects of Concern process is an effective way to ensure a high quality of engagement at all levels on complex issues.”
The Civil Military Air Traffic Management System has previously been discussed at a Projects of Concern summit held in December 2023.
That summit agreed to finalise a contract change proposal and an integrated master schedule for the project by early 2024.
“I am pleased there has been significant progress on delivering the remediation plan for the OneSKY-CMATS air traffic management project,” Minister Conroy said, speaking at the time.
“Ministerial engagement through Projects of Concern summits is proving to be an effective way of motivating stakeholders to resolve complex issues.
“This is the fourth Projects of Concern summit held by the Albanese government, demonstrating our commitment to working with industry to get defence projects back on track.”
