Two Ukrainian defense companies have won NATO tenders for the first time in history. Ukrainian manufacturers have been given the opportunity to participate in Alliance procurement thanks to a new cooperation mechanism with the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA).<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

This was reported<\/a> by Ukrinform, citing a statement by the head of the Ukrainian Mission to NATO, Alona Getmanchuk, which she made during an event in Brussels dedicated to the launch of the UARM Hub platform of Ukrainian weapons manufacturers.<\/p>\n

According to Getmanchuk, Ukrainian defense companies are gradually gaining access to NATO’s procurement system. For this purpose, NSPA has created a special mechanism, the Security Cooperation Support Partnership, which allows Ukrainian companies to participate in the Alliance’s procurement procedures.<\/p>\n

“Two Ukrainian companies have already participated in NATO tenders and were recognized as winners,” the Head of the Mission said.<\/p>\n

She did not specify which companies were involved, nor did she disclose the details of the contracts.<\/p>\n

Hetmanchuk noted that the format of Ukraine’s interaction with NATO is changing: cooperation is no longer limited to receiving military assistance from allies.<\/p>\n

“We are creating a format for full-fledged two-way traffic,” she emphasized.<\/p>\n

According to the Head of the Mission, the Ukrainian defense-industrial complex is already directly involved in strengthening the security of the Alliance countries.<\/p>\n

In addition, at the NATO summit in The Hague, the allies agreed that investments in Ukraine’s defense and the development of its defense industry can be counted towards meeting the new defense spending target of 5% of GDP.<\/p>\n

Ukrainian manufacturers will be able to receive NATO grants<\/h3>\n

Hetmanchuk also recalled the memorandum between Ukraine and DIANA, NATO’s defense innovation accelerator. Ukraine became the first Alliance partner country to sign such an agreement.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the memorandum, Ukrainian companies and startups will be able to participate in NATO innovation competitions, apply for grants, use a network of over 200 testing sites, and attract private investment.<\/p>\n

A partner search mechanism is also provided to help Ukrainian manufacturers establish cooperation with companies from NATO countries. This concerns the joint development, testing, and scaling of defense technologies.
\nIt was previously reported that Ukraine is joining a partnership with the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA), which will allow Kyiv to purchase weapons<\/a> , ammunition and military equipment through the Alliance’s centralized system. This should simplify procurement, reduce delivery times and help save money through large orders.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
