Le partenariat aidera le ministère de la Défense à réduire les coûts de ses services d'ingénierie tout en veillant à ce que les forces armées britanniques reçoivent le meilleur équipement possible et le soutien nécessaire. Gr'ce au partenariat Aurora, le ministère de la Défense tirera profit d'une vaste expérience dans le secteur de la défense, ainsi que d'un savoir-faire dans l'établissement de partenariats similaires dans d'autres secteurs. Le partenariat aidera DE&S à gérer ces coûts, ce qui aura pour effet d'engendrer un changement efficace et des économies au moyen d'une discipline financière et d'une tarification simplifiée et transparente. « La vision pour le partenaire de prestation de services d'ingénierie est d'établir un partenariat en ingénierie à la fois professionnel et solide avec l'entité DE&S, permettant d'obtenir des résultats efficaces et agiles en matière d'équipement et de soutien de première ligne », a affirmé Gordon Barr, directeur général, Aurora Engineering Partnership, QinetiQ. « Le rôle de partenaire de prestation de services d'ingénierie est une superbe occasion, non seulement pour nous, mais également pour les programmes de défense du Royaume-Uni. Il permet d'assurer le bon soutien dès la première fois, de façon sécuritaire et en respectant le budget, a ajouté Nick Roberts, président, Ingénierie, conception et gestion de projet, SNC-Lavalin. En collaboration avec nos partenaires, nous nous pencherons d'abord et avant tout sur les résultats pour ceux en première ligne, et travaillerons ensemble pour favoriser un rendement et une productivité accrus autant que possible. » Un autre élément clé du rôle de partenaire de prestation de services d'ingénierie sera de promouvoir l'innovation au sein de l'industrie et du milieu universitaire. Dans le cadre de ce partenariat, Aurora établira un réseau de fournisseurs qui comprendra des petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) de créneaux spécifiques ou spécialisés afin de tirer profit des meilleures expertises du Royaume-Uni. « Nous établissons un réseau de fournisseurs durable qui encourage et développe les PME en tant qu'élément essentiel à la prestation de services plus efficaces et novateurs pour l'entité DE&S, explique Roy Quilliam, directeur, Aurora Engineering, BMT. Nous avons déjà un nombre sans précédent d'entreprises enregistrées, soit 280, parmi lesquelles 70 % sont des PME, afin de fournir des services d'ingénierie au partenariat Aurora. » Pour le deuxième trimestre de 2018, le secteur Ingénierie, conception et gestion de projets de SNC-Lavalin a atteint un ratio des octrois sur les produits de 1,2.
