What you'll learn
- When a defence production line stops, the question for a ministry is rarely whether another European factory owns similar machines.
- It is whether that factory may lawfully use the design, has been approved to make the part, can be called on to produce it at a defined moment, and will have its output accepted.
- Each of those conditions is normally held by a different party: the owner of the technology, the customer or prime contractor that qualifies the process, the firm that controls the capacity and the authority that accepts the product.
