Australian companies Minelab and EPE have signed teaming agreements to collaborate across a range of defence projects, the companies confirmed this week.
Leading countermine technology developer Minelab and counter-IED developer EPE have confirmed that both companies have signed an exclusive teaming agreement to collaborate on Defence LAND projects.
Minelab currently develops countermine technology including metal detectors for militaries and humanitarian organisations across the world, including enhanced portable hand-held detection capabilities. The company’s offerings were bolstered in 2016 with a $6.7 million contract from the Department of Defence, which was awarded to develop dual sensor detectors capable of identifying both metal and non-metal explosive devices.
Veteran owned and operated EPE has developed a range of counter explosive hazard (CEH) and counter-IED capabilities for both the Australian Defence Force and the New Zealand Defence Force, and received a 2019 New Zealand Minister of Defence Award for Excellence to Industry.
