We are delighted to share that Larkshill Engineering has been selected as one of 30 pathfinder SMEs to work with the Ministry of Defence (MOD) as part of its Defence Office for Small Business Growth. We were privileged to attend the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland last week to attend its launch which has been established to help improve the procurement process particularly targeting SMEs.
Our contribution will focus on:
– Championing the needs and perspectives of engineering SMEs
– Helping remove barriers for smaller businesses entering defence work
– Sharing practical insight around quality, compliance and innovation
– Supporting efforts to build a more agile, resilient UK defence procurement system
We’re proud to be part of this important initiative and look forward to working closely with MOD representatives, industry partners and fellow SMEs to drive meaningful progress.
More updates to follow on this exciting development!
