ADVANCE NOTICE OF THE REQUEST FOR INFORMATION TO MANUFACTURERS AND FACTORIES FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE NATO ENGINE PILOT -> see attached document
NSPA is seeking responses from capable vendors for the NATO Engine pilot, which is designed to support an interoperable and secure digital registry for business-to-business information exchanges. According to the request for information, responses will be used to assess manufacturers and factories and to inform possible next steps.
The envisaged areas of interest include, but not limited to:
• Automotive;
• Electronic manufacturing services;
• Aerospace;
• Metalworking;
• Additive manufacturing/3D printing;
• Digital engineering;
• Mechanical engineering;
• Others.
The initial version of the platform is expected to go online in September 2026 and is planned to build on NSPA’s existing RAPiD-e repository.
The notice states that information submitted in response to the request will not automatically be included in the NATO Engine pilot platform. Responders are expected to have the opportunity to decide what level of information is made accessible on the platform, and information may be anonymised if requested by the relevant nation where the entity is domiciled.
NSPA asks interested vendors to complete the questionnaire by 27 August 2026 through https://www.nspa.nato.int/newsroom/events/request-for-information-for-nato-engine.
The notice also states that this is not a request for proposals, does not commit NSPA to issue a solicitation or award a contract, and that responses sent by email will not be considered.

EURHISFIRM designs a world-class research infrastructure (RI) to connect, collect, collate, align, and share detailed, reliable, and standardized long-term financial, governance, and geographical data on European companies. EURHISFIRM enables researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to develop and evaluate effective strategies to promote investment, economic growth and job creation. The RI provides the tools for long-term analysis highlighting the dynamics of the past and the way those dynamics structure our present and future.
The EURHISFIRM European project received € 3.4 million in financing from the European Commission through the H2020-INFRADEV-2017-1 research infrastructures call. The project started with a consortium of eleven research organisations (including University of Antwerp) from seven European countries.
