Perth, Western Australia – 6 March 2025 – Red Piranha, Australia's leading developer and manufacturer of advanced cybersecurity solutions, commends the Australian Government's recent initiative to establish a clear definition of an Australian business under the Buy Australian Plan.
The Buy Australian Plan aims to enhance government procurement processes by supporting genuine Australian businesses, thereby strengthening the local economy and promoting domestic industry capabilities.
Quotes attributable to Minister for Industry and Science, the Hon Ed Husic MP:
“This is an Australian government first.
“When we say we want Australian companies to have a chance to provide goods and services to government, we want genuine, true-blue Australian businesses to do so.
“This new definition helps give confidence that this is the case – and helps make the job easier for government officials too.
“Government is a big potential customer for lots of businesses, especially in our world-class tech sector.
“These changes help smaller Australian businesses have a fair crack, providing genuine competition against big multinational firms for government contracts.”
Adam Bennett, CEO of Red Piranha, expressed strong support for this development:
"This clear definition is a significant step towards reinforcing our national security and economic sovereignty. It ensures that government procurement supports genuinely Australian businesses, fostering innovation and resilience within our local industries."
Red Piranha remains committed to delivering cutting-edge cybersecurity solutions that protect Australia's digital landscape, aligning with the nation's goals of self-reliance and technological advancement.
