TAS and Garuda Aerospace sign MoU to advance autonomous drone capabilities
·Chennai, India / Australia
IPO-bound drone technology company Garuda Aerospace Limited has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Timed Automation Solutions (TAS), establishing a framework for technical cooperation, knowledge sharing, and growth in autonomous aerial operations.
The collaboration pairs Garuda Aerospace’s strength in drone manufacturing and drone-based solutions with TAS’s software-led autonomous operations stack. That includes drone-in-a-box orchestration, fleet and site control, AI-assisted image review, and enterprise integrations through the TAS SkyStream platform.
Under the MoU, both organisations will evaluate non-exclusive opportunities across product distribution, joint development of drone technologies, and participation in domestic and international projects. Priority application areas include agriculture, infrastructure inspection, and remote operations.
“As autonomous technologies continue to redefine industries worldwide, building strong international relationships is essential to shaping the future of the drone ecosystem. Our association with Timed Automation Solutions reflects our commitment to expanding Garuda Aerospace’s global reach while developing solutions that address evolving industry requirements.”
“This collaboration with Garuda Aerospace reflects TAS’s vision to build a scalable, software-driven UAV ecosystem in Australia. By combining Garuda’s manufacturing capabilities with our SkyStream platform, we aim to deliver flexible, cost-effective, and scalable solutions for industries transitioning towards autonomous operations.”
The collaboration will also explore pilot deployments across Australia and New Zealand, supporting evaluation of real-world use cases and operational workflows. In 2025, Garuda Aerospace secured export licence approvals that support potential expansion into the Australian market. All deployments remain subject to applicable regulatory requirements, including CASA regulations in Australia.
