Allied Support Services International Group (ASSIG) has launched its newly designed website as part of an ongoing effort to support defence, technology, and industrial suppliers seeking to work with NATO, EU, UN, and allied procurement frameworks.
Entering its 16th year of operation, ASSIG continues to focus on helping suppliers align their services, solutions, and products with the requirements of institutional buying organisations across the allied defence ecosystem.
The new website presents ASSIG’s services, recent work, and client engagements more clearly, while introducing Allied Perspectives, a blog dedicated to procurement insight and supplier readiness. It is designed as a reference point for companies aiming to understand what it takes to engage credibly with NATO, EU, and UN procurement systems.
ASSIG’s work centres on supplier readiness — ensuring that organisations are structured, governed, and technically prepared to participate in institutional procurement processes.
Forecasts underline why readiness is becoming more critical. Goldman Sachs projects that European defence expenditure could reach around 2.7 percent of GDP by 2027, reflecting long-term commitments to capability development, interoperability, and stockpile renewal. In parallel, Fitch Ratings has estimated that the European Union could allocate up to €500 billion to defence over the coming four to five years, signalling a sustained increase in demand for qualified, compliant suppliers.
For companies providing technology solutions, specialised services, or manufactured products, these trends point to a clear reality: opportunities will grow, but expectations from buying organisations will grow with them — particularly around governance, compliance, interoperability, and clarity of communication.
The new ASSIG website presents its core services in a way that reflects the decision paths of suppliers considering entry or expansion in NATO, EU, UN, or allied markets:
These services are designed for organisations that want to bring their capabilities — whether technologies, services, or manufactured systems — into line with institutional requirements rather than treating defence and security as a generic market channel.
Founded in 2010, ASSIG now enters its 16th year directly supporting defence and industrial suppliers. The organisation draws on more than 100 years of combined NATO and EU experience, reflecting backgrounds in policy, operations, and procurement.
This combined experience allows ASSIG to support clients with an understanding of how allied institutions set priorities, make decisions, and evaluate supplier readiness over time.
The new website also introduces Allied Perspectives, ASSIG’s blog focused on:
The goal is to give suppliers structured, practical insight — not slogans — that can inform how they prepare to offer their products, solutions, and services to allied buying organisations.
Organisations considering or planning to work with NATO, EU, UN, or allied procurement frameworks are encouraged to discuss their readiness with an ASSIG advisor. Conversations typically focus on where the organisation stands today, how it aligns with institutional expectations, and what may be required to participate more effectively in allied procurement processes.
