As defense companies expand their operations into foreign markets, they often require a comprehensive range of in-country support services to establish a strong operational foothold and ensure full regulatory compliance. Many companies find it challenging to set up expatriate teams and organizations, identify skilled technical personnel to oversee local operations, and manage key projects by providing direct customer support in an unfamiliar market environment.  These companies often require specialized services such as human resources outsourcing, procurement management and training solutions to ensure their operations run seamlessly. Human resources outsourcing is particularly valuable in these situations, as it enables companies to streamline the recruitment / employment process, manage visas & work permits, and provide necessary life support services to their employees – all without the need for a local legal entity.
