Defence and Space Industry Manufacturing: One Accountable Supply Chain Partner

Geomiq is one accountable partner for defence and space manufacturing, with a UK-only CNC option, region-restricted jobs and a multi-sourced network that protects continuity of supply.

Why Defence and Space Supply Chains Lose Control, and How We Fix It

Defence and space buyers need to know where parts are made, who is working on them and who can see their drawings, and spreading orders across many suppliers makes each of those harder to answer. Re-sourcing as volumes grow adds more suppliers and puts continuity of supply at risk. Geomiq brings platform, network, quality management and supply chain ownership together in one service, with a UK-only CNC option and region-restricted jobs. Drawing access and sharing requirements are assessed at project level, and one accountable partner stands behind every order.

How a Defence and Space Order Runs, from Brief to Repeat Supply

  • Submit Your Parts and Requirements

    Upload your CAD files to the Geomiq platform, which accepts STEP, STL, IGS, PDF, DXF and DWG formats, and all uploads are secure and confidential. If your files contain restricted or export-controlled technical information, speak to Geomiq before uploading. Tell us about your location and certification requirements when you submit your parts.

  • Receive Your Quotes

    Simple parts are quoted instantly and complex parts within 24 hours, with the best of at least three supplier offers shown. Complex work, such as assemblies, certification needs or special documentation, is reviewed and quoted individually, and location and drawing-handling needs are agreed before work begins.

  • We Manage Manufacturing and Inspection

    Geomiq selects suitable suppliers within the constraints you set and manages the order from start to finish. Your parts are checked virtually and physically before they ship, and you can track your order on your dashboard.

  • Delivery, Repeat Orders and Call-Offs

    Your parts are delivered, and when the programme moves into repeat supply you can place further orders or arrange call-offs on the same platform. The accountable partner and the process stay the same, so there is no need to re-source.

Quality, Documentation and Compliance for Defence & Space Parts

  • ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 Quality Management

    Geomiq holds ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certifications, supported by inspection and certificates of conformity. Quality requirements are reviewed per project, so each order is checked to the level your programme needs.

  • Inspection Reports

    Inspection requirements and reports are agreed per project at quote stage. Tell the team what evidence your programme requires so it is planned into the order.

  • Certificates of Conformity

    Certificates of conformity support your quality documentation and help keep repeat batches consistent. They are agreed with the team as part of the order.

  • Material Certificates and Traceability

    Material certs and inspection reports are agreed per project. Share your traceability needs at quote stage so they are in place before manufacture begins.

  • Certified Partners

    We source through appropriately certified partners where your programme requires it․ Certification needs are reviewed and quoted individually.

  • Export Control and Drawing Handling

    Export-control and data-handling requirements are assessed at project level, including how drawings are accessed and shared. Raise any restrictions before you upload so the approach can be agreed.

Continuity and Control: Where Parts Are Made and How Supply Continues

Control starts with where your parts are made: Geomiq’s UK-only CNC network supports jobs that need domestic manufacture, and any job can be restricted by region. Continuity comes from a coordinated, multi-sourced network, so your programme does not depend on a single workshop, and one accountable partner manages suppliers, quality and delivery.

Why Defence and Space Buyers Choose Geomiq

Accountability Across Every Supplier

Aerospace component quality inspection

You deal with one team, who manage the suppliers, quality and delivery behind your order. That gives you a single point of responsibility instead of several workshops to coordinate.

Continuity from R&D into Repeat Production

CNC prototype production scaling

Geomiq is strongest when programmes move from R&D and prototypes into repeat production. One supplier can cover multiple processes and quality requirements, so your supply chain stays stable as volumes grow.

Speed and Flexibility at Competitive Prices

Precision machined metal components

A broad manufacturing network gives you competitive quotes, fast turnaround and room to scale. You get that flexibility without adding suppliers to manage.
