Alan Davidson, Group Business Development Director at Cam Lock, attended the Defence Procurement Conference 2026 in Birmingham today alongside Tom Ward, Sales Director at Camberley Rubber.

Focused exclusively on UK defence supply chain access and procurement strategy, the conference brought together SMEs, defence manufacturers, procurement specialists and government representatives to discuss current and future opportunities within the sector.

The event provided a valuable platform for networking, knowledge sharing and engagement with key defence procurement decision makers. Discussions focused on strengthening the UK’s manufacturing capability, improving supply chain resilience and encouraging greater participation from British suppliers.

Throughout the day, Alan connected with industry leaders and explored opportunities for Cam Lock to support future defence programmes, helping to reinforce the company’s commitment to supplying high-quality engineered solutions to demanding sectors.
