Based at Lot Fourteen innvovation precinct in Adelaide city, AeroPM consultancy would lead test and evaluation for key defence programmes with the air warfare centre (pictured) at the Royal Australian Air Force's Edinburgh base, north of Adelaide.

AeroPM, a professional services consultancy firm specialising in supporting the Australian government defence department to buy complex and significant sovereign capabilities, moved into the Lot Fourteen innovation precinct on North Terrace, Adelaide city, in 2022.

Besides the advantage of joining the growing defence projects slated for South Australia, AeroPM, based in Canberra, was attracted to Lot Fourteen to work within a district of like-minded talented professionals in the defence and space industry.

AeroPM’s chief executive officer Emily Frizell said Lot Fourteen would help accelerate the company’s growth “in a genuinely collegiate environment and the access to like-minded professionals and companies is just good for business. Our Adelaide team has grown strongly over the last three years and the maturation of the company into a second facility reflects our expectations that this growth will continue as the demand for premium consultancy support within the defence environment will remain high.”

With experts in systems engineering, test and evaluation, program and project management, commercial and integrated logistics support, AeroPM’s team supported critical acquisitions within the aerospace, land, maritime and joint domains.

The South Australian-based team led the test and evaluation for key programs within the air warfare centre at RAAF Base Edinburgh north of Adelaide. It spearheaded technology solutions for warfighting networks and provide systems engineering, project management and integrated logistics support for counter-improvised explosive devices.

AeroPM joined Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services, and Microsoft Azure at Lot Fourteen alongside research and industry powerhouses including the Australian Space Agency, MIT bigdata Living Lab, the University of Adelaide’s Australian Institute for Machine Learning, Stone & Chalk, the Australian Cyber Collaboration Centre, Commonwealth Bank Technology Hub and the US MITRE centre for information integrity & defence.

Lot Fourteen state project lead Di Dixon said the growing cluster of defence companies was a key part of the value proposition of the innovation district and South Australia as the defence state. “As we work towards the specially designed Entrepreneur and Innovation Centre’s opening in 2025, there has been so much interest from defence, hi-tech and cyber organisations keen to be located here.”
