Rolls-Royce has signaled its intent at the ongoing airshow, to double its supply chain sourcing from India over the next five years. Rolls-Royce already sources a wide range of high-precision parts and engine components for its Civil Aerospace, Defence and Power Systems businesses from numerous Indian partners, and has long-term plans to grow India’s participation in its global supply chain.
“India is fast emerging as a preferred hub for global sourcing, and we are looking to broaden our partnerships here to support both our business growth and the Government of India’s vision to ‘Make in India for the world’. Over the years, Rolls-Royce has helped bolster in-country manufacturing capabilities to meet the highest global quality standards. The focus is now on strengthening relationships with both existing and potential future Indian suppliers, to help develop capabilities to manufacture complex engine components locally for global markets,” said Nicola Grady-Smith, Chief Transformation Officer, Rolls-Royce.
Rolls-Royce will now seek to increase its sourcing of complex parts for advanced aerospace engines, naval propulsion systems, diesel engines and gas turbine engines. According to the company, this strategic move also aligns with Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s call for greater integration of Indian companies into global supply chains (during his recent visit to the United Kingdom).
Speaking about the company’s plans at the show, Alex Zino, Executive VP for Business Development and Future Programmes for Rolls-Royce (Defence) said, “India plays a significant role in our long-term strategy, both as a sourcing hub and as a strategic partner in advancing defence technologies. We are committed to serving the needs of India's armed forces and remain focused on participating in co-development opportunities for critical combat engine technologies. Strengthening the supply chain and enhancing ecosystem capabilities at this time will create a solid foundation for future co-production opportunities, and support India’s vision of becoming a self-reliant defence powerhouse.”
Rolls-Royce has strong joint ventures with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and Force Motors, as well as long-standing relationships with Tata, Bharat Forge, Godrej & Boyce and others, for manufacturing and sourcing complex parts for its businesses.
