Both NATO and the European Union (EU) are scrambling to foster joint procurement, stimulate accelerated defence-industrial production, and promote shared warehousing among their national militaries to replace depleted stocks sent to Ukraine and bolster Europe's own territorial defence. The allies even intend to overhaul their ponderous four-year NATO defence planning process (NDPP) in hopes of supporting those objectives.

Speaking to reporters at the end of a 12–13 October meeting of allied defence ministers in Brussels, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said the officials took decisions “to increase our stockpiles of munitions and equipment, to speed up the delivery of capabilities, and to use the NATO defence planning process to provide industry with the long-term demand they need to boost production”.
