About us

The State Defence Logistics and Procurement Centre (VALIC) is an institution under the direct authority of the Ministry of Defence. Established on 1 January 2021, its primary mission is to ensure comprehensive life-cycle management of material resources and centralized procurement across the entire defence sector. The Centre's core responsibility is to meet the National Armed Forces' requirements with maximum efficiency -  ensuring continuity, timeliness, and appropriate volume.

The defence sector is currently undergoing a logistics reform to modernize and centralize the national supply system. A key objective is the phased transfer of civilian functions from the Armed Forces to the Centre, relieving military personnel of administrative and logistical duties. This transition enables soldiers to focus exclusively on their core duties: combat training, operational readiness, and national defence.
