Supplier readiness use case
DFM EDIP/SAFE/EDF Procurement Readiness Pack 2026
A readiness pack for the EU defence procurement wave: structured EDIP, SAFE and EDF self-assessment, consortium fit and the evidence pack primes ask for.
For SMEs, tier-1/tier-2 suppliers, consultants and research organisations / TTOs.
What's inside
EDIP, SAFE and EDF each apply their own entity, product and R&D tests, and primes increasingly push those tests down the supply chain before a consortium is even formed. Suppliers that arrive with the evidence already structured get into consortia; suppliers that improvise get screened out. This pack structures that preparation.
The 15-tab readiness workbook covers the EDIP entity and product tests (Articles 9–10), SAFE exposure (Article 16), EDF R&D fit (Article 9), consortium and partner fit, a prime readiness evidence pack and security-of-information readiness. Two Word templates — a consortium partner questionnaire and a capability statement — turn the self-assessment into the documents primes and coordinators actually request.

What it does not do
- It does not determine eligibility under EDIP, SAFE or EDF — only the awarding authority does.
- It does not guarantee consortium admission or prime qualification.
- It does not constitute legal or export-control advice.
- It is a v1.0 snapshot with a stated source-check date, not a monitored service.
