DAPA introduces industry reforms

by Jon Grevatt

South Korea's Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA) has rolled out reforms to help local industry expand in domestic and international defence markets.

Announced on 7 January, the new measures emphasise on reducing the administrative burden on companies looking to enter the defence sector and on encouraging greater participation in military research and development (R&D) projects.

To support local firms' access to defence programmes, DAPA said foreign suppliers have been mandated to source parts from local firms and procurement guidelines have been eased to enable two or more companies to submit joint bids for contracts.
