It will foster jointness among the three services and help in maintaining the highest level of military preparedness through expeditious decision making,” it said in a statement.The DPM was last promulgated in 2009. Procurement of goods and services by the defence services and other organisations under the defence ministry is regulated by the manual.Ease of doing business has been further strengthened in the revised document to boost atmanirbharta (self-reliance) in defence manufacturing and technology, the ministry said.The manual sets down the guiding principles and provisions for all revenue procurements in the ministry valued at around ₹1 lakh crore in the current financial year.“There has been a pressing need for this manual to be aligned with latest developments in the field of public procurement duly ensuring the use of technology in procurement with utmost fairness, transparency, and accountability.”The revised document has been aligned with the updated provisions of the Manual for Procurement of Goods issued by the finance ministry.
