Procurements & Purchases

We offer centralized procurement management services to institutions within the Ministry of Defence’s jurisdiction. This involves organizing centralized procurements to ensure the availability of products and services required within the Ministry of Defence’s scope. Additionally, we conduct joint procurements with other countries and organizations to consolidate requirements and reduce costs.

In 2020, we transitioned to category-based procurement to ensure the quality of procurements and enhance the efficiency of their execution. This management approach deepens procurement leadership competence, contributes to a better understanding of the market, and enables us to provide robust procurement partnership to the armed forces.
