Paxon developed the preliminary feasibility study for the establishment of an Advanced Manufacturing and Technology Hub (AMTECH) in the Bunbury-Geographe region.
The AMTECH concept is designed to create an eco-system of technological advancement and continuous learning, it will give local manufacturers access to infrastructure, technology, training, education and research.
Paxon conducted market research, reviewed comparable Australian developments, and assessed the Bunbury region to evaluate alignment for advanced manufacturing hubs defined based on successful precedents. An approach was then developed to secure government support and progress a feasibility study, industry attraction process, and business case to deliver a viable solution.
