Govt. Orders on Make in India, Public Procurement & FAQ on PPP MII Govt Orders

1. Background of PMA-PPP-MII

The PMA started historically with orders from Department of IT now known as Ministry of Electronics and IT as Preferential Market Access(PMA) and later moved as Public Procurement ( Preference to Make in India) commonly called as PPP MII. These are issued by Ministry of Commerce and Industries- DPIIT, earlier called DIPP.

The orders issued by DPIIT/DIPP are applicable to all departments, ministries, all procurements. Orders issued by Prime Minister, CentralVigilanceCommissioner are also applicable to all departments/procurements. The PPP MII orders are issued with reference to General Finance Rules (GFR) hence applicable to all without any exception

However, the administrative departments or nodal ministries are permitted to issue their own supplementary/additional orders in support of DPIIT/DIPP orders. These mainly concerned to the products covered by these departments. These orders issued by nodal ministries are also applicable to all procurements by all the departments for the products identified by nodal ministries.

On several occasions the nodal/procurement ministries reiterates the DPIIT/DIPP/nodal ministries, for all their officers.

The ICT/Telecom/Mobile/Electronics products and services are procured by almost all procurement/departments. Nodal Ministries for these products are Department of Telecom (DOT), Department of Electronics and IT (MeitY-earlier DIT). Railways are another department procuring large ICT/ Video products.

2. Role of TEMA/CMAI in Make in India/PPP-MII/PMA policies and implementation

TEMA/CMAI are important stakeholders for Make in India policies and effectively represent the interest of manufacturers by participation in various policy meetings and interactions for policy, procedure, specifications, testing, manufacturing issues.

TEMA/CMAI has taken up various grievances, on behalf of Industry, regarding violations of Government policy on "Public Procurement (Preference to Make In India" (PPP MII) Order, 2017” as amended with 95% success rate. Large scale violation of policy by large buyers was observed and cases were taken up by us with PMO / DPIIT / Railways & DOT and most decisions were in favor of the domestic manufacturer. Government as well as our Hon’ble Prime Minister is committed to ensure adoption of domestic manufactured products in public procurement and TEMA/CMAI helps to ensure ground level implementation of the same.

Based on the experience and compendium of case studies, we would like to facilitate the procurement officers to understand the policy provisions, And at the same time help industries by taking up their grievances on PPP MII policy violations.

CMAI/TEMA Prepared FAQ Click Here for details

DPIIT Prepared FAQ

TEMA/CMAI has taken up various grievances, on behalf of Industry, regarding violations of Government policy on "Public Procurement (Preference to Make In India" (PPP MII) Order, 2017” as amended with 95% success rate. Large scale violation of policy by large buyers was observed and cases were taken up by us with PMO / DPIIT / Railways & DOT and most decisions were in favor of the domestic manufacturer. Government as well as our Hon’ble Prime Minister is committed to ensure adoption of domestic manufactured products in public procurement and TEMA/CMAI helps to ensure ground level implementation of the same. TEMA/CMAI firmly believes that Policy of Preference in Public Procurement to Make In India (PPP MII) is one policy that can help resurrect the Indian Industry hence we consider proper implementation of this policy will be our biggest contribution for grown and prosperity of Indian Industry.

TEMA/CMAI has also been receiving several requests from various Procurement Officers/State Government officers to seek clarity on the provisions of PPP MII.

Now, to extend benefits of this policy to various procurement officers as also many more Industries, we have compiled an FAQ based on learning’s from the decisions taken by Government while resolving various disputes. TEMA/CMAI has a list of these case studies along with decisions taken by the standing committee that spans across industries from Railway Coaches to Lifts and Telecom products.

Based on this experience and compendium of case studies, we would like to help procurement officers to understand the provisions as also to industries by taking up their grievances on PPP MII policy violation by the procurement agencies.
