Strengthening Security and U.S. Technology Transfer within in Australian Electronics Manufacturing

What These Capabilities Mean in Practice

Security-Cleared Personnel

Extel maintains a workforce with current Defence clearances and the authority to sponsor new clearances in line with customer project roadmaps. This ensures immediate access to vetted personnel and scalable coverage for sensitive work.

Secure Facilities and Systems

Our sites are access-controlled, and our IT systems are aligned with the ASD Essential Eight. Physical, cyber and governance measures are embedded into every aspect of our operation, including incident response and data handling.

Export-Controlled Project Capability

With ITAR registration, Extel can lawfully receive, manage, and integrate U.S. technical data, hardware and software that fall under export control. This allows customers to progress programs involving restricted components without the delays or redesigns that can accompany export limitations.

Governance, Audit and Evidence Readiness

DISP, ITAR and AS9100D certifications form a structured compliance foundation. Customers can reference Extel’s verified status directly in audits, AIC reports and tender submissions – reducing administrative work and strengthening evidence in regulatory documentation.

Supply Chain Assurance and Sponsorship

Extel’s DISP and ITAR frameworks extend through our approved supply chain. We can support suppliers and customers alike in meeting compliance expectations faster, helping avoid onboarding bottlenecks and ensuring every partner in the chain meets required standards.

Why This Matters for Your Project

Faster Onboarding

Pre-verified security and export credentials reduce approval time and administrative workload.

Reduced Program Risk

Alignment with Defence and export frameworks ensures compliance gaps do not slow or jeopardise delivery.

Greater Project Scope

Projects involving export-controlled items, AUKUS collaboration or sovereign work can now be managed end-to-end under Extel’s security framework.

Reliable Evidence for Reporting

Defence primes and contractors can use Extel’s verified credentials to support procurement submissions, AIC reporting and tender documentation.
