Understanding impacts on Australian industry
Australia’s economic and national interests depend on secure, resilient and well‑functioning supply chains. Global events have the potential to affect a range of supply chains and input markets.
Our department is ensuring the government is well informed and able to respond effectively by:
- engaging directly with industry representatives through forums, roundtables and regular stakeholder engagement
- monitoring supply and demand pressures across key sectors
- responding to emerging issues as they arise, in coordination with other government agencies
- contributing economic, industry and market insights.
This engagement supports situational awareness and helps inform whole-of-government decision-making.
Coordinated response across government
Different government agencies are leading responses in their policy areas. We’ve listed the main activities that are helping industry and business manage supply chain issues.
