Indian Defence Industry- Some Facts India is one of the largest military spenders. India emerges as one of the biggest markets in the world for defence and aerospace products and the topmost importers. Nearly 70% of Indian military hardware is imported. Indian exports are a modest US $75mn annually. India has 8 Defence Public Sector Undertakings and 40 Ordnance Factories which account for almost total indigenous production of military goods. The Defence industry has been opened for Private Sector. Tech Synergy

Capital Acquisitions Categorization Buy & Make Buy Buy & Make Make Indian Purchase from High Tech foreign vendor RFP to be issued complex Buy Global Buy Indian followed by only to Indian indigenous licensed/indigeno vendors systems us production Indian vendors Foreign & Indian with 30% vendors indigenous content Tech Synergy
Buy Global Outright purchase from OEM Foreign as well as Indian vendor Normally for one time procurement Buy & Make Purchase from a foreign vendor Followed by licensed production/indigenous manufacture in the country Private sector can participate • Buy & Make (Indian) • Def Production Policy • Indian Company • 50% indigenous contents Tech Synergy
Short listing of vendors… RFP only to OEM, authorised vendors and Government sponsored export agencies. Vendor must possess proven technical competence of the level sought & have credible past track record. In TOT cases, ability to transfer requisite technology for licenced production is essential. Export policies of vendor’s country with respect to high-tech items need to be ascertained, especially for TOT. Issuance of RFP is an expression of confidence in the capability of the vendor. Once RFP is issued, no vendor can be eliminated summarily for suspect competence. Tech Synergy
Short listing of vendors… RFP issued by Technical Managers after vetting by all concerned including production agency (for TOT). AON lapses if RFP not issued within two years. TOT may be negotiated either with purchase package or as a follow up later-on, but availability of TOT would be a pre-condition. RFP to include trial methodology. No addition to vendors is permitted once RFP issued. Single vendor RFP only with permission of DAC. Single stage two-bid system is followed. Technical and commercial proposals are submitted in separate sealed envelopes, to be valid for 18 months. Maximum extension of time for submission up to 8 weeks – 4 by DG Acquisition and further 4 by Defence Minister. Technical proposals are opened by Technical Managers while commercial proposals are kept sealed. Tech Synergy
