PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL

A quantitative analysis of Colombia

Key Export Markets for U.S. Defense Suppliers

Prepared for:

PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL | AVASCENT | 2

Executive Summary

The Virginia Economic Development Partnership asked Avascent to evaluate four defense export markets based on current and future procurements of defense materiel

Colombia exhibits growth in defense spending generally, and defense procurement in particular; further, their historic preference for U.S. equipment makes them attractive export markets

However, the mix of defense investment priorities is shifting in these markets in response to changes in the internal and regional threat environment

Further, an increasing desire to maintain diverse supplier relationships and to develop indigenous industry may present challenges to U.S. firms wishing to serve these markets


Structure and Definitions

The data used in these reports is sourced from Avascent’s Global Platforms and Systems tool, which takes a bottom-up and top-down approach to identifying and forecasting defense procurement in the U.S. and abroad

In addition to qualitative market analysis, each country report features the following quantitative views:

– Defense Platforms. This view depicts current and future procurements of integrated ground, airborne, and ship platforms as well as integrated air defense systems

– Defense Systems. This view disaggregates platforms into their component electronic systems, spanning C4I, electronic warfare, and sensing equipment

–Prime Contractors. This view displays the market share among major platform integrators

–Sub-Contractors. This view represents a level of granularity below prime contractors and displays the market share among major sub-system manufacturers

–Opportunity Space. This view categorizes emerging stated or projected military requirements by platform type and electronic systems market category

Note: Additional methodology slides are available in the appendix


Key Colombian officials advocate maintaining a robust defense budget, despite an anticipated peace plans with the FARC

— Colombian officials have been conducting peace talks with the FARC since 2012 and negotiations are rumored to be heading towards a final agreement in 2016

— The Colombian defense and finance ministers are committed to funding a robust defense budget over the next five years whether or not the peace talks are successful

— However, other officials argue that defense spending should be cut to reintegrate fighters into society, build infrastructure, and compensate victims from the war

— While tension between these two groups may lead to some volatility in Colombia’s defense spending in the near-term, overall defense spending will continue to grow to fund increasing salaries and training for personnel

Colombia is expected to continue with major air and sea modernization programs

— The Navy has announced plans to procure eight frigates with IOC expected by 2022

— The Air Force is expected to spend over $1.3B on a future fighter procurement within the 2018-2022 timeframe

Forecast Summary

Exchange Rate

2376

Defense spending will slow as Colombian negotiations with the FARC near a successful conclusion, and O&M is likely to bear the brunt of this slowdown

The high investment spending growth rate is an artifact of an extreme decrease in the procurement budget in 2015-2016, which will rise to normal levels again in the out-years

Colombia’s two main defense customers, the military and national police, are both managed under the Ministry of Defense

Colombia Ministry of DefenseColombia’s defense ministry includes a variety of homeland security functions, most importantly the National Police

The National Police are a significant part of the Ministry of Defense

The Colombian government has had two main priorities for its arms procurement:

– Acquiring equipment to sustain operations against FARC rebels and drug cartels

– Supporting and expanding their industrial base

Higher end equipment typically imported from the United States


Challenges

Trends

Colombia Offsets and Defense PolicyColombia has significant offset requirements that it uses to improve both its defense industrial base and provide social services through the Office of the Deputy Minister of Corporate Sector Defense Group and Welfare

• Reduced US aid may put pressure on defense spending

• High requirements for offsets for any sale

• Corruption has been a recurring issue in the Colombian military

• Colombian support for indigenous defense firms limits imports to more complex/higher end platforms and systems

Colombia’s defense policy currently plans for aggressive increases in defense spending in spite of progress being made on peace talks with FARC

Major acquisitions in the near-term will require significant offsets (Main Battle Tank procurement, future fighter and trainer aircraft)

Any transaction with a value greater than $1.5 million (US) carries a 100% minimum offset obligation

Offsets are then directed to one of two areas:

– Social and Enterprise Group of Defense (GSED)

– Social Policies

Physical Rehabilitation

Education & Childcare

Job Training

Biofuels

Direct foreign investment into the Colombian defense industrial base is not allowed

Companies are required to propose a Framework Offset Agreement describing the offset that would accompany their contract and specific terms of implementation

Industry


Colombia Defense Summary

Colombia remains one of the larger South American defense markets for exporters

Colombian defense spending is scheduled to grow from 2016 to 2021 (3%)

Defense spending growth may slow as Colombian negotiations with the FARC near a successful conclusion

Planned investments will require the purchase of non-Colombian equipment

–New tanks and armored vehicles

–New fighter and trainer aircraft

–New frigates

–Weapons purchases and replenishment

Air-to-Air Missile

Air-to-Ground Missile

100% offset requirement adds substantial cost to export sales

There are significant opportunities for defense exporters, but downside risks and high offset requirements temper attractiveness of the market

First, Avascent identifies the sum of the R&D and Procurement accounts to use as a bounding function for the bottom-up analysis

Next, the build of Awardedprograms looks at acquisitions that are in progress or that will not be competed

Third, Avascent looks at government documents and statements to identify Stated Opportunities that will be competed

Fourth, Avascent uses gap analysis, life expectancy, and other factors to derive Projected Opportunities that do not reflect a gov’t statement
