About NDI

The company supports its members with a range of consultancy and project management interventions which are designed to create business opportunity in our core markets.

With a membership base of over 200 companies, NDI works with Prime Contractors, Systems Integrators, Ministry of Defence procurement, logistic and repair agencies to identify and recommend appropriate supplier and sub-contractor capability.

NDI supports supply network companies with the aim of improving business opportunity, providing access to industry-relevant events and exhibitions, creating valuable networking opportunities and raising company profiles.

NDI assists Systems Integrators and Global Prime Contractors by identifying and assembling supplier networks, by providing bid support and lobby activity and management/facilitation of supplier engagement events.

NDI can also provide commercial services to members and non-members alike in the following areas:

• Consultancy Services (including Business Process Development, Offset Support and SC21 Accreditation)

• Marketing Support (including Bid Support and Commercial Strategy Development)

• Project Management (including co-ordination of Defence Projects and MOD Supply Chain Development)

NDI has a Memorandum of Understanding with Farnborough Aerospace Consortium (FAC) and an alliance with NOF Energy. The agreements in place with these companies mean that NDI is a powerful voice for the small and medium sized companies in the UK that is heard by the Government, MOD and the Prime Contractor community.

The Marine Design Centre – the first of its kind in the UK – is a wholly owned subsidiary of NDI. It provides a focal point for the ship design industry in Yorkshire and the North East, allowing training, development and joint project work under one roof.
