Our Vision

We want to make the production strength and know-how of Turkish industry visible in international procurement networks.
To this end, we aim to be a reference consulting brand that leads companies to position themselves as reliable, sustainable and competitive suppliers before NATO and international institutions, and that builds lasting bridges of trust between industry and buyers.

We analyse each company's current capacity, draw up a roadmap suited to its target markets and manage registration, certification and bidding processes end to end. We see every collaboration as a long-term partnership.

Our Mission

To enable companies to manage their international tender processes with accurate information, complete documentation and realistic planning, and to help them build a reliable supplier profile before NATO agencies and international buyers in every market they target.
To this end, we develop solutions tailored to the needs of each company, maintain transparent communication throughout the process and track results against measurable goals. Our aim is lasting success and growth in international markets.

Frequently Asked Questions

The NCAGE (NATO Commercial and Government Entity) code is a unique identifier assigned to your company in the NATO Codification System and is required for NATO procurement.

NSPA (NATO Support and Procurement Agency) is the NATO agency that provides logistics, maintenance and procurement services for NATO and allied nations. It issues tenders across a wide range, from fuel to spare parts and from construction to services.

NCIA (NATO Communications and Information Agency) carries out project and service procurement on behalf of NATO in the fields of communications, information technology, cyber security and command and control systems.

Registration requires an NCAGE code and a Declaration of Eligibility issued by national authorities. Once company details and product/service categories are entered into NSPA's supplier database, the company begins to receive invitations to tender.

SAM (System for Award Management) is the official system in which companies wishing to do business with the US government register. An active SAM registration and a UEI number are required to take part in certain US-sourced defence and procurement opportunities.

In US federal procurement, the DUNS number was replaced in 2022 by the UEI (Unique Entity ID) number issued through SAM. However, some commercial platforms and international buyers still use the DUNS number for company verification. We determine together which number is required depending on your target buyer.

As a general rule, companies established in NATO member countries and approved by their own country's competent authorities can take part in NATO tenders. Since Türkiye is a NATO member, Turkish companies that meet the required registration and eligibility conditions can submit bids in these tenders.

NSPA and NCIA publish tender and notice-of-intent announcements on their own e-procurement portals; some announcements are also relayed to companies through national delegations. Given the volume and technical language of the announcements, regular and systematic monitoring is important. We carry out this monitoring on your behalf and share summaries of those that suit your capacity.

The process begins with a detailed review of the tender documents. A technical specification compliance matrix is then prepared, clarification requests are submitted if necessary, pricing and a supply plan are developed, and the bid is submitted in full, in the required format and within the deadline.

The most common mistakes at these stages are missing documents, technical descriptions that do not fully comply with the specification, and missed submission deadlines. We minimise these risks through checklists and calendar management.

Answering questions that may arise during the evaluation process after the bid is submitted, and preparing for contract negotiations, are also part of our service.

In a significant proportion of NATO tenders, bids are first evaluated technically; bids that do not fully comply with the specification may be eliminated regardless of price. It is therefore critical to provide a clear and documented response to every item.

The ISO 9001 quality management system and the NATO quality standard AQAP 2110 are among the most frequently requested documents. Depending on the sector, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 may also be requested, along with a facility security clearance for work that requires confidentiality.

The duration varies depending on the company's existing documents, the workload of the institutions and the type of application. With a fully prepared file, registrations are generally completed within a few weeks to a few months. At the first meeting, we share an estimated timeline specific to your company.

Yes. In large-scale projects, prime contractors share many work packages with subcontractors. This model is an effective starting point for companies seeking international references.

Some contracts require facility and personnel security clearances issued by national security authorities. These requirements are specified in the tender documents; by identifying which clearances are needed from the outset, we plan the preparation process.

Our main services are registration and certification consulting, tender monitoring and analysis, bid preparation, technical compliance checks, partnership and consortium formation, and post-contract follow-up.

We support companies in many areas that NATO and international institutions require, notably defence, logistics, facility management, catering, energy, textiles, construction and technical supply.

Simply fill in the contact form or send us an e-mail. At the first meeting, we discuss your company's products and services, existing documents and objectives.

In the preliminary assessment report we then prepare, we share suitable opportunity areas, missing registrations and documents, an estimated timeline and the recommended work plan.

Once the plan is approved, registration processes are initiated and opportunity tracking begins. Throughout the process, we keep your company informed with regular reports.
